How Amazon Uses Explosive-Resistant Devices To Transfer Data To AWS
Переглядів 2,616,929
4 роки томуDemand for cloud computing from providers like Amazon Web Services continues to rise from both companies and consumers that rely on remote storage and computing power accessible from anywhere. While other tech giants Google, Microsoft, and IBM are vying to be the go-to providers, Amazon remains the undisputed leader in cloud computing.
Amazon Web Services is behind much of the technology we use every day, from streaming your favorite shows on Netflix to calling a car from Lyft. AWS has been one of Amazon’s most profitable business endeavors as companies abandon their own data centers for Amazon Web Services. Amazon said it has more 4,000 government contracts as well.
But moving data from local servers to the AWS cloud servers can be a challenge. Amazondeveloped physical and rugged products called the Snowball and the Snowmobile to help companies transfer data to the cloud. CNBC got a rare inside look at how Amazon Web Services transfers a large amount of data to the cloud.

How did Amazon get into web services? Simple: Amazon itself needed *MASSIVE* amounts of computing power to keep up with its own sales, warehousing and shipping operations. As such, Amazon bought so much hardware that they discovered all that computer hardware could be used for web services, and AWS was an outgrowth of using all that hardware to make more money.
@PCDestroyer31 4 роки тому

AFAIR Amazon always needed a lot of computing power around Christmas. The rest of the year the servers were just idling. This is how they got the cloud idea. Clever. I wish I would have worked for such a company, not at boring S*e*e*s (not always boring, but in grand total, sadly).
@ethanpoole3443 4 роки тому
Such practices were very common back in the era of mainframes as many mid-sized, and even many smaller, businesses needed the vast resources, ability to handle large datasets, and high uptime reliability that only mainframes offered but most were not so large that they could fully justify the operating and ownership costs of a mainframe for just their own business needs. So time sharing and remote terminal access became a thing were the business that owned the mainframe could rent or lease their unused capacity to smaller customers thus bringing down the ownership and operating costs for all and making mainframe class resources available to customers that otherwise could not have afforded such had they had to bear all the costs by themselves. Many of the most successful business ideas are more about finding true win-win solutions that fill a vital niche as opposed to opportunistically predatory practices. Win-win solutions tend to create happy long term customers for years to come, which is hard to beat.

ISPs? 70/mo for 100mbps unlimited download? That's mb/sec, you don't have drives to fill if you downloaded all day. Are you confusing ISP for Server/Vps??
@brynleytalbot778 4 роки тому
I'm guessing that like the UK your end supplier piggy backs on a national wire/fibre network. When you add up all of the pockets being filled low pricing is an impossibility. Welcome to capitalism Western style where we make it ever more complex and expensive with profits to boot. One telecom provider, with one ISP, sold and supplied under one company. Monopoly, I hear you cry. Efficiency, I cry back. We've been duped into high prices by corporate mergers and breaking up monopolies. A corporate entity can have many end brands but one cost base. Savings = Bonuses!

Huawei makes their commercials feel as if you're part of a movement, that going with Huawei is not just about the product but the betterment of all humanity! I'll take these 'commercials' over Hauwei brainwashing any day. Some of these 'commercials' also go into how screwed up Amazon is to it's employees how they're based on algorithms and those algorithms are designed where they're never doing enough, to where there's ALWAYS a target to meet. That is screwed up but that's the norm with these companies. Alibaba doesn't even let people into its centres similar to Amazons and people who have talked to Western media in China about their conditions have ended up as part of their 1 million + prisoners in re-education camps with forced labour and even more brainwashing where they're brainwashed into loving the Chinese president and the chinese communist party he's head of.
