What special hardware vs a few cores with a reverse proxy? Surely a trivial cost.

  > Surely a trivial cost. So we both agree it is more than zero cost? Backblaze saves that cost passes on the savings to customers. I'm not sure what the exact costs would be because Backblaze did not implement it that way. > a few cores By "a few" do you mean 10, 100, 1000 or...? For how much bandwidth will your solution support? For example, can your few cores support 10 Gbits/sec? 100 GBits/sec? 1 TBit/sec? Backblaze is COMPLETELY FREE of worrying about these questions, because our solution does not require this additional step and this additional hardware, and therefore does not have this choke point.
