Is also incorrect that all the storj select nodes under the tier “us-select-1” are located in the US?
Are there another tiers of storj select nodes active at the moment?
Idle Storj Select nodes receive any income?
Maybe i could rephrase it with “At the moment, there are active select nodes only in the US. Nothing to do with “geo restrictions”.”
Might be a matter of the specific agreement, it was however mentioned Select nodes are getting paid for reserved capacity, not by what of it is being actually used.
I do not think so. They must be locked to US.
yes?
no. There are a lot of nodes in the Select, still much less than in a Storj Global. However, they are spin up on a strongly demand of: either a US geolocation AND strongly requirement of SOC2. Otherwise the Storj Global is much more reliable and faster, especially if they need a global access. Ok, the Storj Global is not SOC2 certified yet, but it has much more confidence than ANY centralized cloud solution.
Os there any update yet, wether StorJ global will get soc2 certification or how far you are with it?
It looks like it is out now:
On one hand it is nice that they finally moved over to Storj.
On the other hand given their history, very sad that they suddenly believe they need to store their data in SOC2 datacenters.
I wouldn’t expect anything new on this for several months. When there is news to share on it, we will let you know. There are a number of SOC2 auditor tasks being done and the discussions on the Public side are just one of many of those. It is going to take some time.
“Your fault tolerant data is stored with our vetted globally distributed storage contractors.”
Wow, I wasn’t wrong! Hello again everyone. Sadly, it seems like my disk usage has remained the same or gone down in the past three months. The payouts are still about twice the cost of electricity, so for now I don’t have to worry about that.
