Update: The cost is a good point. It wasn't that high. We actually updated the article to reflect this. It was two engineers, working full-time on it, for three weeks.

A few minutes of downtime wouldn't be that bad, but it would harm the company's prestige. Unlike AWS and Netflix, we are not based on massive consumption, but on a few customers. L…

You are right. AWS DMS was our very first choice to try out. It is very easy to use, deployed within your VPC and most of the problems we mention in the article are already solved.…

Can you give me a hint about that? Wouldn't that be too much for a Pi?

Just to save time and practice skills. It's faster, since it doesn't require passwords, and more responsive and beautiful, since it uses bootstrap.

There are some routers providing these information through their web interface, but I haven't found anyone that provides these info through SSH. Any ideas how I could grab that inf…
