Good question! For some toy weather data, Elasticsearch as the only data store made sense. If I were to add more sensors and features and make this a long term project, I'd likely try to wire up some automated backups. If it were some kind of production app that a second human relied on, then I would think hard about the data, the failure scenarios, budget, etc. Does that answer your question at all?
