 flokli | We still need to contact support etc | 16:02:13 |
| flokli | But yes | 16:02:15 |
| flokli | It's better than doing the snowball dance. But it doesn't make sense to do that now, we don't have a sink for the data yet. | 16:02:46 |
 raitobezarius | ah right I forgot that it cost 20K to contact the support /s | 16:03:01 |
| flokli | Make sure you check the price list first! | 16:07:04 |

 @domenkozar:matrix.org | so basically we need like 7k/mo if we switch to Cloudflare R2 | 03:43:24 |
 delroth | 7k/mo and being fine with the ethics of giving money to cloudflare | 05:03:16 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | I don't think we have a lot of choice here | 12:36:05 |
| flokli | Don't think it's wise to move it to another cloud provider, we currently do have some AWS sponsoring, and cold freezing things for some months will give us some more time. | 12:37:22 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | I don't think cold freezing is wise if we can save the full history | 12:38:07 |
| flokli | I guess long-term the idea is to self-host this, be able to easily dedup etc, without keeping every position on the cloud provider pricing list in mind | 12:38:13 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | ehh | 12:38:31 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | you can migrate from cloud providers, but then you need to pay people inside the foundation to manage all this | 12:39:24 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | I don't think this is going to end well | 12:39:33 |
 Julien | 7k/mo is still a load difficult to bear for the fondation, no ? If I understand well currently the excess cost with AWS is 6k/mo ? | 12:39:53 |
| flokli | Well, this channel is about binary cache self-hosting ;-) | 12:40:06 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | 7k/mo I can guarantee I can get sponsorship for | 12:40:10 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | flokli: ok, so where can we discuss the plan then | 12:40:24 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | I'm fine in any channel :) | 12:40:29 |
| flokli | The foundation currently pays 6k a month out of their own pocket and doesn't want to do this long-term, and the AWS sponsorship coving some more costs is time-limited too, because we need to get our costs down. | 12:41:07 |
| flokli | The number of data in the bucket is also growing, it certainly will if we don't want to GC and don't have the wiggle room to dedup | 12:41:46 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | yes, we migrate to R2 and we get 6k/mo of sponsors for the foundation and we have the full history | 12:41:49 |
| flokli | We need more than that. | 12:41:58 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | cache is a common good, we shouldn't just remove stuff if we have a chance of keeping it | 12:42:01 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | it's 500GB of storage no? | 12:42:13 |
| Julien | In reply to @domenkozar:matrix.org
it's 500GB of storage no? Tb | 12:42:28 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | eh 500TB :) | 12:42:35 |
| Julien | It’s going to continue to grow tho | 12:42:48 |
| flokli | We need a more long-term commitment to keep sponsoring this. We need to be certain we can go to cloudflare, and we need to be certain they're ok both with the traffic levels and that staying free | 12:43:01 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | Nix is also growing and companies should pay back to keep it alive | 12:43:04 |
