How many?

How often?

What size?

From where?

Do the missiles launch on failure to serve an image?

How much are you willing to spend?

When do you need it?

For how long?

Obviously, I am assuming it's an engineering problem.

This is just a made scenario

lets say more than a million

daily, but putting a number would be hard. But lets assume total image views

would be around 100k

typically an image of 1-2.5 Mb compressed with a ratio of 60%

it's pretty important to serve the image. so, reliability would be important.

it should be cost effective.

The images will be stored for a long while.
