We replayed the space on our server some time ago, so I decided to migrate most of our user-generated content to Amazon S3. Obvious advantages in saving space, reducing bandwidth costs and distributing requests from our server, which also deals with Apache and MySQL.
We have about 150 GB of images in all three sizes, small (~ 2 KB), medium (~ 10 KB), large (~ 70 KB).
We have not had any problems so far, but I know that if Amazon goes down, we will be screwed up (my only backup is the first 50 GB or so of those images, many of which will be deleted / modified, etc.).
I don’t want to upload images to my server (even if I had disk space), and I can’t upload the entire container to my local machine (shitty connection in the office).
Therefore, I need a solution to backup this data remotely and in the worst case, quickly restore all the data in a bucket.
Or am I too worried, and does Amazon support this for me?
