UniSuper 是澳洲大学退休基金，管理规模很大。
尽管 UniSuper 在 GCJ 弄了异地灾备，但是由于账号直接被删了，所以数据全没了；还是靠其他云服务商的备份恢复的。
Google 表示是“配置错误”。

發人深省的案例，除了異地備援還得有異供應商備援。美國聯邦政府很多部門都是microsoft和amazon一起用。個人用的話要做到跨供應商自動同步有點難就是。
That’s why I back up my photos with time machine in addition to iCloud
唉，每次这种强行删号/冻结的瓜都是 GCP，AWS 狂喜
联合声明 写的很刁钻，精准避开了甩锅：
Google Cloud CEO, Thomas Kurian has confirmed that the disruption arose from an unprecedented sequence of events whereby an inadvertent misconfiguration during provisioning of UniSuper’s Private Cloud services ultimately resulted in the deletion of UniSuper’s Private Cloud subscription.
This is an isolated, ‘one-of-a-kind occurrence’ that has never before occurred with any of Google Cloud’s clients globally. This should not have happened. Google Cloud has identified the events that led to this disruption and taken measures to ensure this does not happen again.
Why did the outage last so long?
UniSuper had duplication in two geographies as a protection against outages and loss. However, when the deletion of UniSuper’s Private Cloud subscription occurred, it caused deletion across both of these geographies.
[…]
- “an inadvertent misconfiguration” → 不知道是哪边的 misconfiguration
- “Private Cloud subscription” → 不清楚是 on prem、dedicated 还是 VPC
- “Google Cloud has […] taken measures to ensure this does not happen again” → GCP 做了改进，但本来是谁的锅还是不清楚
没有临时工吗？
临时工正在面试的路上
太丢人了
我只关心股价会不会跌一个黄金坑让我入场
现在有AI可以当临时工了。
硬盘不够大 本事就很难备份了，时间机器体积应该更大吧
微软也在国内干过不少次吧
cancel subscription => 所有region的backup都删了
上了贼船还想跑

update：
这两天google发了个调查报告，此次事件的原因是：
- 云服务（GCVE）的实例是google员工直接在后台用内部工具起的（去年）
- 起的过程中员工忘记填有效期了，这个内部工具默认是 1 年
- 结果到了今年，1年期到了，所有云实例就自动被删了
- 因为是内部工具发起的删除，没有引起任何通知、审核流程
google采取的行动
- 把这个内部工具禁用了
