And to double the single-points of failure? Now your "stuff" is only alive if both the virtual machine(s) are up, and the object-store is accessible!

- Tostino 9y agoWhat do you mean? It's not like if your object store becomes unavailable your database sending it's backups there will suddenly stop working.
- stevekemp 9y agoIndeed, but if you're hosting user-images on S3 and they go away your site is broken. That might not be a big deal, or it might mean your site is 100% broken. I can't guess, but I'd assume since you went to the effort to setup a store you need it in some way. (No backups? Of a database? That's one power-cut, or hardware failure away from complete data loss too!)
