Hey everyone

I was curious has anyone ever had any issues with a cloud service say Google drive and data disappearing? Or any other provider such as the Aws s3.

I know there must be redundancy going on in data centers, but I always wondered about the what if scenario.

Be interesting to hear if anyone has any stories.

Nope. I’ve used AWS, Digital Ocean, and Backblaze. Never any problems.

  That’s cool there have been no issues. I do wonder how their replication works by chance a drive dies.

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data – legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they’re sure it’s done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

We are one. We are legion. And we’re trying really hard not to forget.
