Below is an example of the resilience of the Autonomi network to global internet service disruptions, confirming that storing data forever has a solid foundation:
The AWS outage happened on Oct 20th, and from our sample of 200 nodes, and past 30 days off data, and zooming in on Oct 20th (24 hour period), it did not make a noticeable dent in network size drop:
Times above are in UTC. Second image is Oct 20th (24 hour period).
Thank you for sharing the details. I spoke with Qi_ma earlier, and he said that the nodes were disconnected at around 3:00 p.m. on 18 Oct, and that the AWS failure occurred much later, but now it appears that the failure clearly had no impact on the network.
This is great news. Although Autonomi is still a very small network today, one can assume that even if it were, say, 100 times larger, it would not lose any nodes because it uses its own protocol.
