ToT* protocol does have an amazing throughput but has a very high latency and is very hard to monitor which is a dealbreaker for us unfortunately.

Hello,

What about using a Tape library and physically export tapes from one
datacenter to another one ?
You have to manage physical accesses to datacenters... For huge
volumes, you can have very good transfer rates !
50 LTO4 tapes = 60TB with a 1h car trip ==> 133 mbps
