I guess this is the modern equivalent to "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway." https://www.wired.com/2017/05/best-way-transmit-satellite-data-trucks-really... Devin
If they could peer with AWS at 200 gigabit, it would only take two months or so to transfer the data. Hmmm looking at peeringdb.com I don't see any sort of IX in Colorado with Amazon directly in house at it: https://www.peeringdb.com/net/1418 But I guess tractor trailer is easier since it's a one shot one time deal. It's going to cost them forever to get their data out of amazon though. Hope they're still keeping an independent backup.
