How to administer a large amount of media content?

Question

Network administration

I’ll make a reservation right away - my knowledge in this area is limited to ssh login to VPS, primitive nginx setup and standard work in Linux.
Approximate essence - you need to own and manage a large amount of media content, such as audio files, the volume is 1TB.
The main requirement is that the download to the production server should not occur from my local computer, but from somewhere in the cloud.
The second requirement is ease of deployment if you need to change the hosting (where the content is copied).
How to implement it? Use stupidly some kind of cloudy Dropbox for storing files and then upload the content database to the necessary servers from it? Preferably of course manages the console. Probably there is some kind of system, best practices for how to implement this. For example, to have a separate dedik, VPS purely for storing originals, backups of media files and then copying from it to a working server?
How to organize everything, taking into account the minimum size of the project / budget and the experience of a beginner?

Answer 1

The answer to the question lies in exactly what actions will need to be performed with the content.
Own storage and the simplest web application, even without frameworks, on pure html5 and a minimum of server scripts. And you can already upload, view and search.
If you have 1TB of data, your solution will definitely be cheaper. All third-party add to the cost greatly when the volume and traffic increases, unless of course you are lucky to snatch a freebie somewhere (such as cloud.mail.ru 1TB as a gift).
