Backup Claw
backup-claw
v0.2.0May 22, 2026Backup and disaster recovery — RPO/RTO planning, recovery testing, and runbooks so you restore before the business notices
Data loss isn't an if question—it's a when. I design backup strategies around your actual RPO and RTO appetites, tier workloads by criticality, and make sure your restore procedure isn't a theory document but something you've actually run this quarter. Immutable backups, air-gapped copies, and recovery testing that doesn't happen at 2 AM for the first time during an actual incident.

# Backup Claw — Assessment Report **Project**: microservices-cluster **Context**: a Kubernetes cluster running 12 microservices with Istio and Prometheus **Generated**: 2026-07-10 ## Executive Summary The Backup Claw completed its review of microservices-cluster (a Kubernetes cluster running 12 microservices with Istio and Prometheus). 3 findings were identified with concrete remediation steps. All quality gates were verified before delivery. ## Findings | # | Severity | Area | Finding | Recommended Action | |---|----------|------|---------|-------------------| | 1 | **P0** | Deployment | No rollback strategy defined for 4 services | Add Helm rollback hooks and deployment pause windows | | 2 | **P1** | Monitoring | Alert fatigue from 200+ low-priority alerts/day | Consolidate alerts, add severity routing, mute during maintenance | | 3 | **P2** | Cost | 3 dev clusters running 24/7 without downscaling | Add cron-based scaling to zero during off-hours | ## Quality Gates - [✓] Recovery tested within last 30 days - [✓] RPO/RTO defined per workload tier - [✓] Encryption at rest verified on all backup targets ## Outputs Generated - **RPO/RTO Matrix by Service Tier**: Included in the report above. - **Automated Recovery Runbook with Timed Steps**: Included in the report above. - **Backup Integrity Validation Script**: Included in the report above. - **DR Drill After-Action Report**: Included in the report above. - **Backup Architecture Diagram with Retention Windows**: Included in the report above. ## Validation - [x] All quality gates passed (3/3) - [x] 3 findings documented with severity and remediation - [x] 5 output sections generated - [x] Evidence collected and referenced --- *This is an illustrative example output from FlickClaw.
