The Vault Network

THE VAULT

There is a long-term, secure storage facility tucked away in the side of an icy mountain above the Arctic Circle between Norway and the North Pole, called the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, or more commonly referred to as the Doomsday Vault. Its purpose is to house all of the world's seeds securely so that in the event of an apocalyptic situation or a global catastrophe, the seeds will be preserved to allow nations to grow various foods again.

We are building a "doomsday vault" of our own. Except in this vault, we are housing the good seed of the preached word in the event of a catastrophic breakdown in relations with cloud providers and platforms. The bottom line is simple. It is imperative that we make every effort and take every step to ensure that the millions of sermons on SermonAudio are preserved for posterity—for this generation and the next.

THE VAULT NETWORK

In the world of computers, it is never a good situation to have a single point of failure, or a single copy of data. Having three of something—often referred to as "N+2 redundancy"—especially in different geographic locations, is considered ideal for truly redundant and highly reliable systems.

However, the Bible talks a lot about the "four corners of the world" and it has long been our desire to reach those four corners, both figuratively and physically, with the preaching of the Gospel. By establishing a Vault Network across four geographic locations worldwide, we will achieve the strongest fault tolerance by maintaining multiple full copies of the entire sermon library with distributed load. It is the ultimate protection measure that will ensure the long survival of this treasure far into the future.
