I am not talking about back ups but more of dealing with the problems of distributed data in general. I.E. How do you, across a network of intermittent reliability (at a certain scale this is a guarantee not a choice), in sure that a piece of data written to and read by multiple actors is constant and available across the system?
Spanner.
Cloud only and closed source, right?
I'm pointing at the architecture, not the specific implementation. Build something like Spanner, not something like a blockchain.
