Project Name: Wikilink
Type of quota increase requested: Object Storage capacity
Amount to increase: Capacity to store ~20K files that on average weigh 700 KBs in two separate containers
- Back of the napkin calculations: Every day, we generate ~3 objects that weigh about 700 KB each. We have a backlog of 5.5 years of historic data, which accounts for about 2200 objects that we haven't uploaded to Object Storage yet. If we want to store 10 years' worth of data, we would need 3objects*365days*10years = 10,950 objects, each weighing 700 KB.
- For the aggregates data, we still haven't done archiving and file compression, but I would assume it would be slightly less storage needed 2objects*365days*10years = 7,300 objects
Reason: We are archiving link events that have been processed for the Wikilink platform. We want to keep the historic data in the Object storage so we don't overwhelm our small MariaDB Docker instance. We are also planning on archiving the historic aggregated data of the former for the same reasons.
