Actually, it highlights the importance of a proper distributed backup strategy and disaster recovery plan.
The same can probably happen on AWS, Azure, any data center really
Uh, yeah, that's why I said
Sure, if you colocate in another datacenter and it isn't your own, they aren't backing your data up without some sort of other agreement and configuration. I'm not sure about AWS but Azure actually has offline geographically separate backup options.
I use AWS to host a far amount of servers and some micro services and for them if you don't build the backup into your architecture design and the live data gets corrupted, etc you are screwed.
They give you the tools to built it all, but it is up to you as the sysadmin/engineer/ dev to actually use those tools.
