Amazon has taken this quote to heart: "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway." --- Andrew S. Tanenbaum[1]
Substitute FedEx for station wagon and drives for tapes, and you've got Amazon's new Import/Export service. In brief, you dump your data onto a drive and send it to Amazon. Amazon uploads the data to your AWS account and sends the drive back.[2] [1] http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Andrew_S._Tanenbaum [2] http://aws.amazon.com/importexport/#supported_devices Regards, - Robert --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Central West End Linux Users Group (via Google Groups) Main page: http://www.cwelug.org To post: [email protected] To subscribe: [email protected] To unsubscribe: [email protected] More options: http://groups.google.com/group/cwelug -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
