Backblaze is a phenomenal company.
My heart goes out to those guys.
I’m currently doing my off-site backups in Azure (Microsoft) Blob Storage. 50 TB backed up in archive tier is costing me about $50/mo.
If I need to graduate this data to cool tier, and download it, the transaction costs are going to suck.
Outside of that, I’m pretty happy with Azure.
Cool, but… Is this just a picture with different filters, or is there code somewhere?
Also, wouldn’t the goal be for your heaviest consumers to be aware of the office of electricity and model their start/stop around that?
As opposed a human having to see the color of a bulb (which will be the same color at each point every day) and having to do it all manually?
