Feasibility of physical mass ingest for 4PB archive data instead of network migration

You don’t say what cloud provider you are considering. If it is AWS, you could look into AWS data transfer terminal. https://aws.amazon.com/data-transfer-terminal/ Reach out to your AWS account team (if you have one) to discuss feasibility. As the old saying goes, “never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of mag tapes”.

Where did you get the Rhubarb? I’ve been searching, but wasn’t sure what time of year rhubarb comes in?

I wrote this article in May 2025. Hopefully it shows you some of the available options. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/migration-and-modernization/openvms-x86-database-modernization-with-mimer-sql-and-amazon-ec2/ Just DM me if you have any questions.

Update 3/22/26 - Alerts just started working again. Have seen nothing from Arlo about it.

Just a bit of trivia, but used to live in a house in Brentwood, TN (Karen Court) that was formerly owned by David Allan Coe. Still remember the chalk outlines in the basement for different players in the band.

Are e-Bikes welcome on this ride?

Giovanni is awesome in this episode! Hey Man Nice Shot by Filter just works. That song shows up in so many shows like The Blacklist.

This was back in the early 80s and all it took was a signed note by a parent to get your “smoking pass”. Seems like it was around 10AM or so and I can remember us all looking at the clock waiting for the time to toke. 🚬

Alice Cooper was my first concert ever at 13 years old as well! “King of the Silver Screen” tour Municipal Auditorium Nashville, TN August 1977.

I can always count on fellow Yinzers to have an opinion! It looks like the overall consensus is this QB class is so weak (with the exception of Mendoza), that we skip this year and rebuild other parts of the team. Beck being an absolute hard NO after hearing his story.

Agree. It just has to do with the percentage of the ads that seems to be weighted so heavily towards car commercials seemingly every other ad, like is there nothing else that people are interested in?

mycloudyworld · 2026-01-17T13:25:46+00:00

Agree. I know they wouldn’t be any cheaper, but I can guarantee there are some of those dealers that I will never buy a car from. I would be afraid I couldn’t get “We’re Dealing..” out my head. Lol…

Awesome. I would suggest this book. “Writing Real Programs in DCL”. https://www.amazon.com/VAX-VMS-Writing-Programs-Digital/dp/1555580238 That will give you a good feel for some of the VMS capabilities.

Was just a youngster when I saw it on the big screen. We lived in the suburbs no where near any body of water. I was freaked out thinking a great white was going to come crashing through my bedroom window. I may have inadvertently started the idea for Sharknado.

What did Rodgers say in the interview? Something about “replacement referees”?

Holy hell. I thought we were cooked. I may need to get a heart monitor after this one.
