See a workaround to quickly validate whether someone can recover from a complete teardown of a cluster without using object storage.
Join the DZone community and get the full member experience. CockroachDB supports enterprise-grade backup and restores using object storage targets. For local development, a userfile scheme was introduced to allow fast prototyping without a heavy burden of spinning up costly infra. A customer requested the ability to quickly validate whether they can recover from a complete teardown of a cluster without using object storage. This is my experience and current workaround to get this to work.
