Perhaps they can ask China or Russia for backup copies. Or the NSA. These 3 hack everything including data capture. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master.

We need more like that at Google, face plant and Amazon. Our company wanted to migrate everything to the cloud. Perfect example of why you shouldn’t. | |||

Cloud hosting isn't the problem. Bad disaster planning is. What happens if you self host, and your private data center burns? This message has been edited. Last edited by: BBMW, | |||

If the customer didn’t pay for the disaster recovery data plan, or implement their own, then they just f’d themselves. OVH had the offering, not their fault the customer didn’t use it to protect themselves. As for the shipping containers, that actually is a common footprint among Google, Facebook, and company. That’s the field replaceable unit, a container at a time. When hardware in a deployed container fails below a certain usable percentage, they just replace the whole container. But, judging from OVHs service offerings of managed bare metal, they may not be up to that level. -- I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is.

Exactly. That's why they have recognized standards for many data centers. Such as those that host government stuff etc. . | |||

Looks like when you stack shipping containers on end, they make a fine chimney! The heat plume coming out of a working data center constructed that way must be intense! Please don't rely on cloud storage as a backup strategy unless you already have two others. | |||

Then you're at least somewhat covered. Don't want to pay for off site mirrored servers? This would be in addition not instead of static backups.

Yes let's let one isolated incident dictate the validity of going cloud in general.... Because keeping your data stored on a $20 hard drive that's hooked up to the office LAN somehow makes it safer and immune from building fires, natural disasters, hardware failures, power outages, loss, theft, hacking, or even coffee spills right... | |||

Our fire systems would have killed all HVAC and power to the data halls and dumped massive amounts of water everywhere. It's pretty amazing that they were not able to get a hold of the situation and limit the destruction to one or two suites. I bet you this incident is going to make me have to do additional training of some sort. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||
