Tested backups, cross-region recovery and a runbook the team has practised. A case study by Lukas Schmidt, Platform Engineer (Terraform & GCP).

## Challenge

Shiftly, a workforce scheduling app, had backups nobody had ever restored. A customer security review asked for recovery objectives the team could not answer.

## Solution

I set up automated, encrypted cross-region backups, wrote a recovery runbook, automated restore tests and ran a full recovery game day with the engineering team.
