I totally agree! I am hoping that Regatta can power a future where teams don't need more than ~8 GiB of local storage for their operating system, and can store the rest on something like Regatta to get rid of the waste of overprovisioned block volumes.

That would sell like hot cakes to the public sector.

Let's hope so, I'd love to help teams take storage infrastructure management off of their plate! If you're in the public sector and interested in trying out Regatta, please shoot me an email at hleath [at] regattastorage.com.

The public sector is typically air-gapped, so not really.

I think it depends which part of the public sector! AWS GovCloud is not airgapped, but I certainly know of deployments which are.
