I'm developer and have 0 sys admin knowledge.
Currently, I had built several apps on the top of Google App Engine. I'm pretty happy with it, as it requires 0 sys admin effort, to achieve such scale.
In term of storage, I'm using
- High Replication Datastore
- Cloud SQL with backups enabled (Binary log disabled)
I know Google infrastructure is pretty reliable. However, for paranoid reason, I was wondering, is there any need for me to export both Datastore & Cloud SQL data, and store in either in my local machine, or non Google server?
Or, my current app settings (high replication on datastore, and backups enabled in Cloud SQL) are good enough for me to be in peace of mind, and requires 0 action from my side?
