Your automation should be handling creating/modifying records in both providers. Also, if you're utilizing multiple providers you don't need to pay for 100% of your QPS (or whatever metric is used for billing) on every provider, only 50% for two or 33% for three. You can just pay for overages when you need to send a higher percentage of your traffic to a single provider.


A lot of providers do have 'fixed' portions of costs, so, it won't be quite 1/2 or 1/3rd.

It may, at scale, be like 100% (one provider), 55%+55% (two) and 40%+40%+40% (three). Still eminently affordable.
