Is it me or AWS is releasing too many services... there is a service for everything. I wounder if they are just throwing stuff out there see what sticks... kinda like landing pages.
- poxrud 12y agoTo be fair, unlike google they are not cancelling any services. I think Amazon first builds these services for internal use, and then releases them to the public.
- dk8996 12y agoWe will see. I hope I am wrong but how many of these are production ready? It seems to be that most of them are in preview/beta.
- rifung 12y agoAs far as I know this isn't the case (used to work across from them)
- Apoplectic 12y agoTo be fair, you have to pay per unit for these services, so as long as people are using them, Amazon is making money. Putting a service out to pasture in maintenance mode probably wouldn't cost that much.
- mentat 12y agoMaintenance on all of their services is non-trivial in terms of people at least. However if they are used internally, directly or indirectly then they're already paying for it.
- jrmcauliffe 12y agoIf you listen to Amazon at their shin-digs, they tell it like all of these new services and features are in response to requests from existing customers.
