I'm not sure how secretive it would be. AWS 'bids' on Amazon.com's business and Amazon.com is under no obligation to use AWS as it's cloud service provider.
- coryfklein 8y agoAre these bids currently public knowledge then?!
- lev99 8y agoId would be pretty hard to hide if Amazon.com's images are severed from Azure ip addresses...
- core-questions 8y agoThey're more than big enough to be bringing their own public IP blocks to a provider and having them announce with BGP. Hell, even us regular joes can do that with services like Packet.Net or Vultr.
- tomjakubowski 8y agoSurely the public-facing stuff is just the tip of the infrastructure iceberg.
- chx 8y agoThe use Akamai for that
