The government should be running its own object store. And by government, I mean coordinated by Internet2/NSF with federation across all member orgs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2 Use backblaze pods, demand off peak bandwidth of gilded age megacorps that own said fiber for sync/replication. https://www.backblaze.com/b2/storage-pod.html 480TB/4U Have 3x sites around the US the build the pods, each new pod gets preloaded with a smattering of rarely requested and low replication count objects (as a redundant backup). Then shipped to the site where it will be used. Local writes go directly to pods which are then kept in sync with the rest of the cluster. edit, from the TFA ```
And to put a cherry on top, the report found the project's organizers didn't consult widely enough, didn't follow NIST data integrity standards, and didn't look for savings properly during internal reviews, in part because half of the review team worked on the project itself.
