The epoch of AWS is the launch of Amazon S3 on March 14, 2006, now almost 10 years ago. Looking back over the past 10 years, there are hundreds of lessons that we’ve learned about building and operating services that need to be secure, reliable, scalable, with predictable performance at the lowest possible cost. APIs are forever.

We were pushing the limits of what was a leading commercial database at the time and were unable to sustain the availability, scalability and performance needs that our growing Amazon business demanded. So, we set out to build a fully hosted AWS database service based upon the original Dynamo design.

This spring I travelled through Europe for the AWS Global Summit series. Europe is a continent with much diversity and for each country there are great AWS customer examples to tell. To reach those goals, Shell in 2010 began using AWS. Shell leverages AWS for big data analytics to help achieve these goals.

As we prepared to launch these features, I was struck not only by the range of services we provide to enable customers to run fully managed, scalable, high performance database workloads, including Amazon RDS , Amazon DynamoDB , Amazon Redshift and Amazon ElastiCache , but also by the pace at which these services are evolving and improving.

To this, they responded that as they were in the fashion retail business , they weren’t doing containers and didn’t think they’ll ever make it to become cloud-native. How do you make it scalable? . But how will you set up the communication? Who manage s the networking aspects? Enter the orchestration platform.?.

Werner Vogels weblog on building scalable and robust distributed systems. The Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) is a highly scalable, reliable and elastic queuing service that just works. Similarly, AWS customers have been using SQS in interesting ways. Amazon SQS provides highly scalable â??eventual Comments ().

Four years ago, as part of our AWS fast data journey, we introduced Amazon ElastiCache for Redis , a fully managed, in-memory data store that operates at microsecond latency. Since then, we have added support for Redis clusters, enabling customers to run faster and more scalable workloads. TB of in-memory capacity in a single cluster.
