So this is update 4 to the whole idea of utilizing Amazon Glacier for long term storage of archived data. Tip #1, which is the most important tip I can give anyone.. internets, internets, internets. I cannot place enough importance on upload throughput. I started this massive (relatively) upload job back around 6/17 and here it is.. first week of July and the job still has 165gb and @7 days remaining.
I am planning to totally saturate their connection tonight after COB.. hopefully that will help knock a chunk out of the remaining data.
If asked about Glacier itself... I have no complaints. it's doing exactly what it's supposed to so far.
