Day 311, Never ending task



Like the once never ending task of repainting a world heritage site, such as The Forth Bridge as seen below, our current data migration tasks at work are tediously ongoing.

The upside is that we are moving to a more flexible and manageable platform, the downside is that all other work and jobs are still continuing, which is significantly short of ideal.



The bridge is now painted in some form of long lasting coating, it should be twenty years before it needs another application.

Our storage, once we are migrated across, will require much less effort to move data in future.  Unless there is a need for a complete technology and vendor refresh, in which case it will be an immensely larger and more invasive job than the one we are currently engaged in.



There are about 20 mobile phone pictures of the transit across the bridge, I was hoping for Google to try and "auto awesome panorama" it in some way, but I didn't get enough overlap.



Auto-awesome is something I'm looking out for in our ability to manage our new storage.
