If you’re a cloud storage geek, then do we have a treat for you! This interview with Wasabi founder David Friend goes deep into the weeds of how and why they’re offering, in David’s words “exactly the same as Amazon S3 cloud storage except it’s one fifth the price, and six times as fast.” Karl has many probing questions, including: “If I were to pick one of the most Quixotic endeavors ever it would be take on Amazon on price.
