I wondered the same (selfishly.. we do too).. I thought only their Watch-Instantly streaming infra was on AWS though, and that main site is still self-hosted.

  Nope, the main site is also hosted on EC2. I saw Adrian Cockroft give an abbreviated overview of their architecture recently. There's very little that isn't already on EC2 and they're actively working to move those things.

    The actual streaming is from CDN, though: http://cloudscaling.com/blog/cloud-computing/cloud-innovators-netflix-strategy-reflects-google-philosophy http://cloudscaling.com/blog/cloud-computing/cloud-innovator...

      The streaming is from CDN, but the links to the CDN with the authorization to stream comes from EC2. The video source for the CDNs is S3.

      I can confirm that there are no problems (and were no problems) with their CDN...
