In my case:

* All my services are dockerized and have gitlab pipelines to deploy on a kubernetes cluster (RKE/K3s/baremetal-k8s)

* git repo's containing the build scripts/pipelines are replicated on my gitlab instance and multiple work computers (laptop & desktop)

* Data and databases are regularly dumped and stored in S3 and my home server

* Most of the infrastructure setup (AWS/DO/Azure, installing kubernetes) is in Terraform git repositories. And a bit of Ansible for some older projects.

Because of the above, if anything happens all I need to restore a service is a fresh blank VM/dedicated machine or a cloud account with a hosted Kubernetes offering. From there it's just configuring terraform/ansible variables with the new hosts and executing the scripts.

How often do you test starting from a clean slate?

I have a similar setup: I recreate everything for every major kubernetes update.
