Indeed. My gut feeling is that most companies using AWS, Azure or Google Cloud are not going to be making backups elsewhere. I wonder how much data would've been lost if they didn't have backups elsewhere?
- abrookewood 2y agoI would imagine all of it. The underlying data is going to be on encrypted volumes and I'd expect deleting them would render the data non-recoverable.
- octodog 2y agoInterestingly the Australian financial services regulator (APRA) has a requirement that companies have a multi-cloud plan for each of their applications. For example, a 'company critical' application needs to be capable of migrating to a secondary cloud service within 4 weeks. I'm not sure how common this regulation would be across industries in Australia or whether it's something that is common in other countries as well.
