So you say that if you don’t make an additional investment in backup infrastructure your data is at risk… Sounds pretty similar to self-hosting, doesn’t it?
Shocking, right? (/s) You don’t get what you do not pay for. OVH also offers private cloud hosting, basically managed servers in a cloud setup and normal hosting options. I have no idea, what the datacenter was primarily used for.
That was a data center, not a cloud. The sort of place they are moving to from the cloud.
With a cloud solution, you make sure to use services that are redundant. AWS and Azure build each region (geographical location) with **multiple **interconnected independent data centers (availability zones). High durability is one of the strong use cases for public clouds.
So how then people using this *miraculous and incredibly safe * (/s) cloud lost their data in OVH datacenter fire?
They used the cheap option without geographic mirrors.

More like the “cloud” provider should have multiple locations and redundancy in place.
That will also depend on if you include that in your subscription and pay for it. Some plans exclude that in the cheaper tiers if I remember correctly
