They run their backend on AWS (i.e. accounts, catalogue, watch history, etc.) They serve their video data using their own custom hardware outside of AWS.

They run EVERYTHING but last mile file serving on aws. Encoding, storage, catalog, recommendations, accounts, etc. all of it in AWS.

  They have resident cache boxes hooked directly into many ISPs. Those aren't on AWS.
