S3 has been around for a much longer time than Dynamo has been. Dynamo is a very recent introduction by Amazon. In fact, Dynamo did not even exist when this article was published. (Dynamo came out early '12, the article is from '10).
And when you think about it, S3 is just a massive distributed key-value store with simple key querying and an HTTP api.

- jbellis 14y agoDynamo cites BigTable as solving similar problems but it's not inspired by BigTable at all, architecturally.
