How much liability can you claim against Cloud Employee if there's an issue with your RDS backups?

What is the chance that Amazon cause an issue with your RDS backup, versus a Cloud Employee?

The answer is definitely not clear to me at all

EDIT: no sarcasm, I legitimately don't know which I would choose as a biz owner

I would personally always have an off-platform backup to fall back on, as protection against the platform going down, accidental damage to data or malicious damage to data. Snapshots in cold storage too.
