A week of downtime and all the servers were recovered only because the customer had a proper disaster recovery protocol and held backups somewhere else, otherwise Google deleted the backups too
Google cloud ceo says “it won’t happen anymore”, it’s insane that there’s the possibility of “instant delete everything”
@Hirom With “offsite” I mean either a different cloud provider or own hardware (if you hold your regular data at some cloud provider, like in this case).
That would indeed be a good backup strategy, but better be specific. “Offsite” may be interpreted in different ways.
