We did! This was before docker. we stuck it on mag-tape and DVD, DVD stayed on-site, and the mag-tape went to Iron Mountain. We had escrow agreements with our customers (Chase, Citi, Amex, HSBC, Deutche, etc.) that if we went tits up, they would get a copy of the code with the docs. The thing that made it work, though, was the fire-drills. Once a quarter (at the beginning, later it was once a year), we would go buy about 10 servers from dell and set them up in the common-room and say to the employees. "We just got hit by a meteor last night. Get us up from off-sites, including all company documentation. Re-inflate the company in 4 hours. Start Now". Of course we all failed (sometimes the backups didn't even work!), but we got to the point where we could re-inflate the company in four hours. I was so proud of those people.
