The Debian Project, provider of one of the earliest OS distributions in Linux’s history, has chosen LeaseWeb Netherlands, part of global hosting brand LeaseWeb, to deploy and host their globally available Debian OS Snapshot Archive with 80 Terabyte (TB) of capacity and ample room to grow.
The Debian OS Snapshot Archive, available at http://snapshot.debian.org, allows access to old software packages accepted into Debian since the operating system's first release over twenty years ago. The snapshot archive provides developers with access to an immense amount of historical information regarding Debian packages, enabling software development including debugging and patching.
The Debian snapshot archive is growing year-on-year, currently expanding at a rate of more than 5 TB per year. As a result, The Debian Project needed a hosting partner that could support its worldwide infrastructure needs.
