**Jerod Santo:** Have you ever done BackBlaze or whatetver? It's like, takes you thirty days and then... You don't need to have a central Houston headquarters, you just have a cloud. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** I do, I have a fiber right connection to AWS. |
**Jerod Santo:** Yeah, so upload that stuff to AWS. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** No, I'm just kidding, we don't have that. It would be cool. If somebody knows more about this-- |
**Jerod Santo:** I don't see why you would ever wanna have to hold that on your own network. That's just such a liability there. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** I like it, I like the liability. |
**Jerod Santo:** Yeah, but if your house burns down, you're screwed. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** It's not gonna burn down. |
**Jerod Santo:** Oh, okay. That sounds like a good gameplan. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Nah, it won't burn down. |
**Jerod Santo:** If it doesn't exist in three places, it doesn't exist... And one of those places has to be not geographically local. Just keep that in mind... |
**Adam Stacoviak:** If we had a fiber store somewhere, or a fiber access to something externally, and it would take maybe two days to get a -- even then... I mean, this is a whole different subject. We're talking about disaster recovery, which is such a deep topic, and one that I'm somewhat familiar with... |
**Jerod Santo:** Well, we can go Backstage on this, but it's super-easy for you to just get that onto a cloud, and then you're just additive at that point. You're just adding new episodes. You don't ever have to do that 10 TB again, but you can pull it down whenever you want, so... Look into it. We can Backstage that, ... |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Let's Backstage that. |
**Jerod Santo:** ...let's wrap this one up as we've switched topics away from Apple hardware to why you need to be in the cloud. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** That's right. |
**Jerod Santo:** Alright... Well, let us know what you think of this episode. Of course, next time Apple has an event, if you all like this, we will continue to do this. We like to nerd out about these things, and more. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** We do. |
**Jerod Santo:** Come nerd out with us... Not just about Apple stuff, but about all things software, open source, developer - you know the kind of stuff that we talk about. Changelog.com/community... If you're listening to this on the Spotlight feed, which is Changelog.com/spotlight, realize that we have a Master feed.... |
**Adam Stacoviak:** One feed to rule them all... |
**Tim Smith:** Nothing for me. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** That's my closing thought. One feed. |
**Jerod Santo:** Changelog.com/master. |
