Is that your article ?

I am in a bit of a funny position, I am volunteering in an underdeveloped country, and have my immich instance running at my in-laws. But I don't have access to my NAS. Backblaze would be ideal!

What have you done to run it there? Is it as easy as mounting juicefs, and pointing immich dirs there?

I have about 700gb that would have to be migrated, any ideas on that? Or would it be relatively transparent to immich just copy and pasting?

Yes :)

In theory it should be as easy as copy and pasting, but I don't know if that wouldn't fail because of a timeout. Though, I have managed to wget a Google photos backup directly into JuiceFS and extract + process it there, just took like a day of time.

Mounting your Immich dirs there is all it should take. I would be careful with database directories/sqlite, they seem to bug out when mounted in JuiceFS

Yeah. I would keep the db local, and probably the thumbs and intermediary photos too. But the full resolution would probably be in S3.

dB's are not good on object store, and not good running over the internet. I wish they had native S3 storage, as that would allow for high speed access, where as this will download to the server, then upload to the client which will add latency.

Cheers
