No, I'm paying only for the bandwidth from my Server to S3rsync servers (which very efficient base on rsync) I'm not pay for the bandwidth from S3rsync servers to S3 storage.

Neither of those are necessarily deal breakers, but definitely worth considering if you're backing up a lot of data and/or it contains sensitive information. Naama,

Hi barneyb,

I don't have EC2 so it save me the trouble (and cost) to deal with EC2.

> s3rsync is still doing a full-file load into S3

Why should I care, as long as it fast and easy to use?

If the source of your backups are already on EC2, then it doesn't matter. Further, all your data must pass through S3rsync's servers, which is far from desirable with sensitive stuff. Naama,

The backup time was very long, It alway re upload the modify files all over again :( I move to http://www.s3rsync.com and now using rsync to s3. Modified file are partly upload the my backup is much faster. Naama G S3Sync didn't work for me well. The backup time was very long, It alway re upload the modify files all over again :(
