Republic Wireless routes through AWS East
- WestCoastJustin 15y agoMakes me happy. If you want to change something like handheld wireless voice communication then take every advantage you can. AWS is a big one, in that you don't have to manage your own data centers, the underlining hardware gets continually upgraded, and you will realize the improve performance without doing your own hardware cycles. They can focus their effort on improving their product. If this is a hit, then they will be forced to improve AWS latency, or find innovated ways to make their product better. I don't think they should put that effort into building out their own end points. Who says AWS cannot manage these large virtual end points. There are already have several AWS West, AWS East, EU, Asia, etc. We might see a time where they are closer to you. Maybe even a perring agreement away ;) Exciting times.
- dlsspy 15y agoI'm very excited to be a Republic Wireless customer.
- pilom 15y agoAny chance we could get a review? I'm interested too but only if the service actually works. The fact that it redials instead of auto re-negotiates isn't exactly inspiring.
- dlsspy 15y agoMy usage has been mostly positive. My only two complaints so far: * The wifi dialer thing conflicts with google voice (GV will override and dial over the cell network). * I'd like a faster phone. Given the overwhelming demand, I'm pretty happy to have left my ATT at home since my new phone came in.
- bdwalter 15y agoI think this is a great idea, I can't wait to try it. Hopefully one of the big carriers doesn't kill ^h^h^h^h acquire them.
