    It's sadly missing the RDF inferencing of Blazegraph though.

  I'm not sure if the sarcastic tone is meant to imply AWS is just a rehash of existing tools, but that's obviously not the case. A list of actual competing software/products/services would be pretty useful.

    Especially since “EC2” is not just a VM. There are dozen services at least that come under EC2. Also if you start trying to use DynamoDB like you would Mongo, you’re going to be really upset. The use cases, design considerations and performance considerations of DynamoDB compared to Mongo is night and day.

      OK substitute VM with OpenStack then.
      • scarface74 6y ago
        I’m really not trying to sound like the “do people still watch TV” guy, but I thought OpenStack fell off the hype curve years ago. Do people still use it.

          > fell off the hype curve years ago. Do people still use it. Hype and usage are very different. It's not like a lot of people really used it during the hype either. There are a few places which actually need something like that and can't use k8s.

  > CloudWatch - Holy shit! It's syslogd I'd go with grafana/prom/loki. It's both for logs and for metrics.

  Thank you! This is absolute gold.

  • simonebrunozzi 6y ago
    Ha. I'd say it's almost the opposite.

  so this is why they make the wording on the proejcts so difficult or non-existent. they don't even know wtf they are doing themselves
