Hi,
It's up to you to take backups of your data. We take regular backups of the
datastore, but we're unable to restore individual users' data.

Could just use the zipme script to implement some download capability
in case your own source got lost.

Thanks - those links to ways of recovering source-code.
What I'm interested in is hearing Google's recommendation on backing
up and restoring data. GAEBAR is an option, I know. Is the official
advice from Google to use it?
Backing up and restoring of data seems to be a significant-enough
issue
Hi johnP,
GAEBAR is certainly one option. The other option is to use the bulk
exporting functionality of appcfg.py. Or, you can roll your own using

The issue with appcfg.py exporting is that you need to write an
Exporter class per entity, etc, etc. It's prone to errors not to
mention that it's a fair amount of work.
Any professional web endeavor requires contingency plans to recover
data in case there is an app error that incorrectly delete
Any backup/restore that Google can provide should be much more
reliable than any roll-your-own system; especially when dealing with
the limitation of 1000 entities/query; no long-running-processes, etc.
It's important functionality. It almost feels weird to be saying
something this basic and obv
Considering Google Reader can't tell me how many unread stories I have
when the number is over 1000, I wouldn't count on Google having secret
technology that bypasses the limits of BigTable.

If data is deleted mistakenly or even intentionally can be restored if
you have prepared yourself with the backups of that data.
If not having backup then with third party data recovery tools, data
files can be recovered easily.
Various file recovery softwares are available and you can try one
