I’m not surprised. Amazon payment service’s reconciliation and settlement system was run off of a developer desktop.
My memory is hazy as it was 18 years ago but I think it was due to some IP restrictions by banks and Amazon didn’t have tech to migrate IPs across machines.
- upon_drumhead 3y agoI totally believe the job was on a desktop, but I’ll call bullshit on the IP reason. The desktops don’t have direct external IPs allocated, so there’s a NAT with standard DHCP. There was no IP migration issues to deal with on the internal network.
