Commit is not to our standards [denies]

Good one for "off-site" backups being in the same building, for all those stories I hear of people rm-rfing their backups it's hilariously accurate.

The real reason is that OVH put the backups right next to the systems, so when the latter went up in flames, the former also did.

But yes, that, too.

I'm glad I can laugh about it now. The one thing this did do was educate a lot of people about the importance on off-site backups and off-site fail overs.

Actually, I should really add the "Off-site backups" right under the "Serverless" label. You know, to stick to facts.

Edit: fixed. I know the image now looks a bit crowded, but it's all in the spirit of accuracy.

I know that's probably the case, but some people might not know, and thus not grasp the extra humor.

Yup. It's been a while but it's still a french dev meme
