- hartator 10y agoAmazon own website can't run properly on AWS?
- seansmccullough 10y agoParts of it don't run on AWS.

- bfcapell 10y ago"At the time I was at Amazon, working on the retail site, none of Amazon.com was running on AWS. I know, when AWS was announced, with great fanfare, they said "the services that power Amazon.com can now power your business!" or words to that effect.
