Re: [CODE4LIB] Using AWS to store TBs of digital video?

Hi, Kyle – I would echo the sentiment to put a copy in the dark cloud (e.g. Amazon Glacier). Last time I checked Oracle had the cheapest dark cloud. Go with whatever is cheap and have a plan to pull out when pricing changes. There is a dizzying array of local storage options. For data this size m
