DCP cloud storages service?

Post by gunnar »

Hi,
Sorry about this question is not directly about DoM itself but very related topic, DCP :)
Can you guys recommend some good cloud storage service that i could upload all of this content and stop worrying about some hard drive backups?

I have look at Aspera, Amazon S3 and more... What are the cloud storage for all those large data?

I created an AWS long term storage account a long time ago - just to see how it works. It's been years ago, and all I did with it is take a look at my test files there once a year to check if they are still there. At the time, learning curve was steep, and access not user friendly, however, there are now all sorts of applications that make it easy. It is only affordable for long term backup, though. For short term and sharing, Google Drive or DropBox is better suited.

Also worth looking is that Amazon S3 "Glacier Storage" as it is much cheaper compared to other S3 storage classes.

I think Glacier is what I booked back then, yes, it is really affordable.
