Nobody cares that you have backups. They care how fast you're back online.
A 400GB backup that takes 9 hours to download and 4 to import is a 13-hour outage no matter how "complete" it is. Meanwhile your competitor restored in 20 minutes from a warm standby.
Backup success is measured in restore minutes, not gigabytes stored. Test the full clock: pull, decompress, import, verify, DNS, cache warm.
If you've never timed an end-to-end restore, your real RTO is "however long it takes, plus panic."
Storage is cheap. Downtime is expensive. Change my mind.
