    And I thought it was bad when a hurricane took out US-East-1 back in the day.

    Yup, guess the are trying to transfer from backup to the German AWS and the first attempt failed, they said they are going to be trying again and the transfer will take 2 days and another 3 days for the backups to be up and running. So minimum of 5 days if they can get the transfer to work.

    I’m currently building out a multi-region/cloud infrastructure for our new cloud services.

    Thankfully 99% of the critical data starts with our clients’ code/asset repositories and can be rebuilt from their sources if need be.

    I feel for you dude.

    I also don’t want to tell you how much cash I made telling fortune 50 companies that their backups didn’t work for them.

    Shocking concept… your backups aren’t working until you effectively recover from them. And do it regularly to ensure they keep working.

    Half of my income from my side consulting gig is teaching teams what "immutable" actually means. When they don't want to pay for it, I tell them what a ransomware attack actually means.

    For twice as much, I'll teach them what "idempotent" is.

    I also consulted on many a CQRS system that was improperly implemented for many reasons, including failed idempotence.
