Wow, that must be quite expensive! You said the files alone are a few PB. So at least 2PB / 8 servers ~= 250TB per server, which would probably put each server at > 20k $ (unless you’re putting it together with duct tape and scraps, but even then the disks will cost a ton).
- searchcord 1y agoHey, Not exactly. Attachments are only fetched from Discord as the user requests them. This means that the vast majority of attachments are never stored on my server. Right now, I only have about 280TB of attachments locally on my own infrastructure. You can see more stats here: https://searchcord.io/about https://searchcord.io/about Thanks for your question!
