Urm, Netflix is BUILT ON AWS (or at least was 5yr ago):
> Netflix uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) for nearly all its computing and storage needs, including databases, analytics, recommendation engines, video transcoding, and more—hundreds of functions that in total use more than 100,000 server instances on AWS.

- cthalupa 5y agoYou're both right. Netflix is built on AWS - for the sort of workloads you quoted. It also has it's own entirely separate content delivery system, Open Connect. https://blog.apnic.net/2018/06/20/netflix-content-distribution-through-open-connect/ https://blog.apnic.net/2018/06/20/netflix-content-distributi... >Netflix Open Connect is our purpose-built Content Delivery Network (CDN) responsible for serving 100% of our video traffic.
