Backup for the image

Hi
I have an idea.
Why don't we upload and backup image at the same time?
The image will upload to two different location.
It can decrease the workload of an admin of an image hosting website.
Easy way to make the image safe.
Also , This function should not slow down the process of uploading image.
Or we can do that in different threads to handle this function.
 
But not all owner can control the hardware setting or using object storage for the first choice of their external storage. Small website owner would like to find the cheapest way to backup their data.
 
Is cheaper to get a cheap VPS and do rsync every hour or so, server to server. Backup on the fly (after upload) will get you bad performance because for every upload you will open a new connection rather than sync all at once. Imagine 100 people uploading images at once, that is 100 connections for backup (on demand) vs one connection each a given period of time.

Rsync is dead easy to use and it only needs SSH access between the two servers (common stuff for today's standards).
