Maybe my sense of scale is warped but I’m amazed at how little BW the archive uses. Since this data appears to be averaged over a 1 minute window, I wonder what their p99 usage is. The article says they bought a 2nd router. Were they only using a single router before (no redundancy or protected BW)? I realize the Archive probably has a small budget but one can buy a 3.2T switch relatively cheaply these days.
