I've been dealing with time drift in some form or another for the most part of my life. About every decade I have tried very hard to use, incorporate, and integrate the best in class time keeping technology the market has to offer. Like other technological
Things in my home the biggest push has been to have as many devices local first vs cloud first.
I want to limit my reliance on needing a Internet connection especially for time keeping . . .
The greatest advancements to the common man as it relates to time keeping has been the second hand used market. Next, is the incredible competition for GPS enabled devices which has driven the cost down where anyone can have, use, and integrate their very own local first GPS NTP Server.
I haven't looked back for more than 15 years since running my local first Stratum 1 Servers.
The big plan for the end of 2022 is to have every Atomic Clock, GPS NTP server fully integrated and deployed. As of this writing the big push is to finalize and validate hardline / wireless time servers to offer more resiliency, redundancy, and fail over.
Just a quick image capture from my ISM Server
Statistics from the five locally hosted Stratum 1 GPS NTP Servers which offer a PPS (Pulse Per Second) time reference.
The biggest push for me in 2022 has been to integrate new systems that support the four major GPS satellite services. As this insures 100% coverage no matter where I am on the planet. This is especially important when I or the team are in motion / out in the sticks.
