This is exactly what we need. Except that the pricing on S3 storage is just too high. It is way more expensive than just buying our own replicating storage and hosting one off site. 25TB in s3 is is $43,000/year. It cost us $90,000 to get 4 falconstore ga700s and (3x40TB) of storage. This gives us 2 devices on site in a HA setup with 40TB of storage, and 2 offsite devices in different datacenters with 40TB of storage each. We end up with way more features than amazon's offering, better performance, and the 40TB of storage we have costs less than 3 years of having 25TB of storage at amazon, where we'd still need to be paying for the local storage as well.
