Five nines is about six minutes of downtime a year.

Google search fails for me perhaps about that.

Now to get five nines for Google a bunch of parts below it have to be more redundant and reliable.

My favorite set of Google 9s is that Google Cloud Storage offers 11 9s (99.999999999%) of durability. The availability SLO is 99.95% though.

Hmm that durability means that after some period of time, all your data is gone.

Could be once a year lol

You do realize that durability and availability are different properties of a system, right?

Isn’t that explicitly what they’re pointing out?
