1AWS_ inevitable nexus between computing and
storage
2Importance of TPM.
- Schmidt It treating security as paramount as we
exactly is Super employment's whether you know
things like a trusted platform module TPM it's
building specifically to monitor what's going on
in the device in twin tracking so you can see
with things as you mentioned all the encryption. - It is a real a real focus area. The device itself
though is actually for something hexing so much
is that not that heavy is actually wise. Less
than 50 pounds or for people like me who don't
understand pounds 22 kilos. - So one person can lift it and move it around
pretty easily so you can kind of assemble a
cluster of casings without needing you know
forklifts and stuff like that.
3Importance of TPM.
- We intentionally try to keep it under the 50
pound minimum 20 Tequila's as you called out and
that was just really just for operational
efficiency right. We wanted to make sure that one
able person could certainly manhandle the device
for transport no added weight really. - Or at least not nothing significant was added.
And as part of the latest announcement for SB 1
instances. - That's really exciting and just back to the
military testing that I mentioned just to clarify
what I was talking about the smile one day
specification which is for high impact mechanical
shock an equipment mounted on ships which is a
fancy way of saying they blow stuff up next to a
barge and see what happens to the snowball. So it
passed that which is good and so I'll definitely
conditionings because it was pretty spectacular.
4physical aspects of the device.
- We have conducted some pretty wild the test drop
tests from all sides of the device for multiple
stories. All these tests have been in a
non-operational mode. - But yeah no I would say you can imagine the
beating these devices take if for no other reason
just shipping them out. - I think we're hundreds of times around the world
at this point in terms of you know aggregate
miles of crude and so they take a beating and I
think we've done remarkably well I think on the
durability side of the physical aspects of the
device.
5speaking the long term nature
- Yeah and speaking the long term nature.
- I think if people familiar with the sort of use
of the snowball for migration of Dargan probably
more used to you know pay the price for the
snowball that gets sent to me I keep it for X
number of days not pay for any extra days I want
to keep it in and return it. - This is a different model because obviously I
want to keep these Sanibel ages for potential
credits on. So we allow customers to have both
the on demand fee but also they could do a one or
three. - The correct yeah so I think there was some
obvious awareness that as customers start
deploying the device more for let's just call it
ephemeral compute the usual times if you will of
just a few weeks or a few days was wasn't good
enough and so we introduced one and three year
volume pricing and so that is a way to offset the
daily accrual fees.
6Actual storage component on S3 and glacier's.
- One other thing I would call out is that that
also does not factor in any significant data
ingest or data coming back to a WSO. - There are some commercial arrangements there.
There certainly are used cases where customers
are looking for mid to long term deployment of
Snowball edge for compute. - They may also be committing to a certain volume
term lengths for actual storage consumption
between S3 and glacier and so that kind of takes
them down the path of looking at really you know
multiple pricing discounts one for snowball edge
and then one for the actual storage component on
S3 and glacier's.
7This is on double edge.
- Yeah it's like that classic thing of you pie pies
you've got to pay for use and if you are
operating at Schuyler volume then you get
discounts accordingly as well so the more you use
the less you pay on a per unit basis. One of my
best friends. - Excellent well Ian thanks so much for coming on
and demystifying the newness of easy to compute.
This is on double edge. - I would say you know nothing's stopping folks
from giving it a test run for themselves so we
encourage you to sign up go to the Stroll
management Kutsal and order snowball today.
