I’m sure their backups are in as good a condition as their trucks and nuclear missiles.

I work with huge data pools like this and IDK what your backups look like, this is going to cause a massive issue. Even with my crazy fast network with fiber channel connections, it still takes lots of time to move a TB of data. And unless its on tape or in a secured space, it probably cant be trusted.

This was massive. Glory to Ukraine!

My giant workplace had a data problem and had to restore from tape. We had a week off and things weren't all back and working for months

If only they had access to AWS or Azure who both have physical data transfer options..

My TBs of backups took months to go over my 1Gbps fiber.
