	\frametitle{How to be resilient (the hard way)}

	Entreprise-grade systems typically employ:
	\vspace{1em}
	\begin{itemize}
		\item Redundant Internet connections
		\item Redundant electricity
		\item UPSes
		\item RAID
		\item ... 
	\end{itemize}
	\vspace{1em}
	$\to$ it's costly and only worth it at DC scale
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
	\frametitle{How to be resilient (the \underline{\textbf{cheap}} way)}

	Instead, we use:
	\vspace{1em}
	\begin{itemize}
		\item Commodity hardware (e.g. old desktop PCs)
			\vspace{.5em}
		\item<2-> Commodity Internet (e.g. FTTB, FTTH) and electricity
			\vspace{.5em}
		\item<3-> \textbf{Geographical redundancy} (multi-site replication)
			\vspace{.5em}
		\item<4-> \textbf{Fault-tolerant distributed algorithms}
	\end{itemize}
	\vspace{1em}
	\visible<5->{
		\centering
		\underline{\textbf{This is how we build Garage.}}
	}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
	\frametitle{But what is Garage, exactly?}
	\textbf{Garage is a self-hosted drop-in replacement for the Amazon S3 object store}\\
	\vspace{.5em}
	that implements resilience through geographical redundancy on commodity hardware

		\begin{center}
				Current status: technical preview\\
				Our goal: release a stable v1.0
		\end{center}

		\textbf{Comming up next: an e-mail IMAP inbox based on the same principles}

	\visible<4->{
		\begin{center}
				Current status: just an idea\\
				Our goal: at least a PoC, maybe more
