Hi everyone,

I’m planning a trip to Taiwan this October. I don’t have a fixed route yet and I’d like to keep it flexible, so good hostel recommendations might actually help shape where I go.

So I’m curious: did you stay in any hostel that genuinely surprised you?

Not just cheap and clean, but a place with a good atmosphere. The kind of hostel where you planned to stay one night and ended up wanting to stay three.

I’m in my late 30s and travelling solo, so I’m not looking for party hostels. I’d much rather find places that are calm, cozy, clean and still social in a natural way. Somewhere with a nice common area, good people around, and a relaxed vibe where it feels easy to slow down for a few days.

I’m open to anywhere in Taiwan. Big cities, small towns, east coast, mountains, islands, whatever. I’m especially interested in hostels that felt warm, personal or memorable.

Any places that really stood out to you?

Hello Veeamers!

We are currently reviewing our object storage strategy and looking to replace AWS S3 with something cheaper and easier to operate (for example, getting rid of those annoying ephemeral instances required for archival tiering).

Today our use case is Veeam only, but we are also considering if having a general purpose S3 platform could provide additional value in the future.

Our shortlist:

• Veeam Data Cloud Vault
• Wasabi
• Backblaze B2

A few questions for those running these solutions in production:

• Have you experienced any reliability or performance issues with Wasabi or Backblaze?
• Any regrets choosing one over the others?
• For those using Veeam Data Cloud Vault, does the operational simplicity justify the premium?
• If you were starting from scratch today, which option would you choose and why?

Cheers guys, any experience is appreciated!
