Hello,
Data from old versions of Ubuntu are still on the mirrors. I am thinking
for example of Ubuntu 23.04 Lunar Lobster or Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty
Tahr. These versions have no longer been supported since January 2024
and April 2024 respectively and have not been removed.
To reduce the environmental footprint of the mirrors, would it be
possible to move the data to https://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ as
was done before when a distribution is at the end of its life?
Today the Ubuntu mirror weighs nearly 4 TB. While some data is consulted
several thousand times per second, others are almost never consulted.
Best regards,
Vivien Guéant.
