I'm confused by the storage consumption of metalhead.club media:

* Mastodon reports: 603 GiB
* Minio reports: 692 GiB
* Filesystem reports: 763 GiB

🤷‍♂️ I mean ... a little difference should be fine - but 160 GiB ?!

Any ideas why?

Edit: I don't have versioning enabled in Minio S3.

Readvertising a #vacancy for a #Python #SoftwareDeveloper with the right to work in #Australia and experience in setting up #S3 storage for use as a research #DataRepository.

The role will include responsibility to set up and manage the storage, including interfaces to upload packaged datasets and metadata and landing pages for data access. This is a core component in our #FAIR #data pipeline for #plant #phenotyping data.

#Cloud klaut Geld. Nachrechnen lohnt sich.

Das #Softwareunternehmen #37signals migriert auch seinen #S3-Speicher von #AWS in eigene #Rechenzentren und spart dadurch jährlich rund 1,3 Millionen US-Dollar.

Nach dem Umzug aller Workloads belaufen sich die Gesamtersparnisse auf über 2 Mio. US-Dollar pro Jahr. Trotz Investitionen in eigene #Infrastruktur rechnet sich der Schritt langfristig.

After I reported an open #s3 #bucket to the Duebi Group from Italy (duebigroup.com/) last November, the bucket was deleted yesterday. The bucket contained customer data as telefonnumbers, e-mail IDs and bank account numbers (IBAN) as well as names and clear text passwords.

I guess the Italian data protection authority did take care of them.

Why on earth people still to save clear text passwords?

21 million screenshots in one open bucket.

Workplace surveillance system #WorkComposer is under fire this week, for storing sensitive data with ZERO #security. The hapless firm saved more than 21 million screenshots from 200,000 users’ work PC screens—and popped them in an open #AmazonWebServices #S3 bucket.

Hackers could have easily stolen company secrets—and personal ones, too. In #SBBlogwatch, we can’t quite believe it.

The #data team I lead for the #Australian Plant Phenomics Network (plantphenomics.org/) is seeking two additional #Python #developers as part of our efforts to build end-to-end pipelines for #FAIR #research data.

One will focus on interfaces between our nodes and #S3 #repository storage at #Pawsey and #NCI.

The other will build tools to help nodes package complex data using RO-Crate.

The preferred location is Adelaide.

The #norwegian public transport organisation #vy closed a #s3 #bucket with more than 50k reports about how their bus drivers perform in therms of efficiency, comfort and so on. The system is called "Eco Safe".
