Generally you should always make sure to have backup plans but sometimes it's not worth it. Do you really need to maintain a backup strategy which requires a lot of resources for less than 12 hours of downtime per year ?

Perhaps there is a strategy that doesn't require a lot of resources. If there is, I'd be interested to hear about it. Something akin to whipping up a linode box with a pre-made script.
