Yev from Backblaze here -> we'd be curious to hear how! A lot of folks are looking for quick migration assistants for our B2 service, that's pretty fast!

  We have a big fleet of what we call "backfill nodes" which handle the transfer but the most difficult component of the transfer is just the network capacity. We worked pretty closely with Amazon here since we have a long-standing relationship and a lot of data transfer between the two companies.

    Any plans on blogging about this and open sourcing your tools? From our vantage point, this would be hugely popular.

      We might blog about it, these particular tools probably aren't very amenable to open sourcing. They've heavily dependent on in-house Dropbox infrastructure.
