Hello Joshua,
Protecting against human error is important, we all agree on that. You mention your production project along with test projects. The platform allows granting various levels of access to team members; IAM lets you adopt the security principle of least privilege, so you grant only the necessary access to your resources. Only programmers and team members can access test projects. Access to data from the production process is granted to users in various forms, and is controlled by your app’s security features. Users have the data access rights you grant them. One may notice that developer team members usually have a different level of expertise with data, and are able to control risks to a higher extent than an app user. They are generally considered more reliable. It may be worth mentioning that automated backups are possible and can be scheduled <https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/backup-recovery/backing-up#schedulebackups>, and that Cloud SQL allows you to enable binary logging <https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/backup-recovery/restoring#pitr>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
