When you build a system designed to preserve data for years, you quickly discover that everything eventually goes wrong; storage fills up, transfers fail, files corrupt, and assumptions break under real-world conditions. This talk tells the story of our Long Term Archive system: how it started, the unexpected challenges we encountered in production, and how we iterated toward robust, reliable solutions. We’ll cover concrete examples and share the lessons we learned the hard way so you don’t have to.
