Apigee is redundant and provides live services within each region as
a first layer of redundancy.
Data is backed up once per day at a minimum. Some services and data repositories are backed up
multiple times per day.
All data backed up by Google is encrypted using Google-owned and Google-managed encryption keys.
The following table describes the backup for each type of data.
Data
Backup Notes
Control plane data
Backed up and replicated across multiple regions, which may include the US.
The following data is stored in Google Cloud Storage but
there is no separate backup outside of what Storage provides:
API proxies
Shared flows
Keystores
Resource files
Google recommends that you maintain regular backups for control plane data. Backups
for API proxies and shared flows can be created by downloading them,
keystores certificates can be retrieved through Apigee APIs,
and resource files can be retrieved using the UI or Apigee API as documented in Managing resources.
Kept under the same security as our production customer services, with restricted
access using tools equal to or identical to those used in securing Apigee Cloud
platform.
Analytics
Apigee stores backup data for EU analytics regions in the EU region.
Apigee stores backup data for North and South America analytics regions in the
US.
Apigee stores backup data for the following analytics regions in multi-regional
Asia:
Google tests the process of restoring from backup data as part of our operational excellence.
This testing occurs quarterly and the results are included in the audit reports that we share
(such as the SOC).
Google recommends that you have a full software development lifecycle (SDLC) plan for your
Apigee projects. In addition to backup and restoration plans, this also includes plans for
versioning, change management, and authorization.
