[google-cloud-sql-discuss] Cloud SQL external backups (postgres)

Hi,

We use Google Cloud SQL (Postgres) and are happy with it. However, recently we deleted a compute engine and there was no real warning or password asked in between, Google just deleted it and it was not restorable.

The compute instance was restored easily, but if we delete our SQL instance then we have a really big problem because thousands of users are depending on it. 

So, I have a couple questions:
  • The automatic backups, are they stored externally? In other words, if I accidentily delete the instance, can I still restore those backups?
  • If not, how can I also store backups to an external storage bucket? Ideal would be that the backups are stored in a bucket and backups older than 7 days are deleted for example. 
  • The backups are only created once a day, can we set an higher interval to this?
Thanks in advance!
