It's also entirely possible that the reporter either asked AWS for some customer names and cherry-picked those, or the reporter asked their network for some names. In my experience, it's not paid other than in really shady non-mainstream media sites.
- onewaystreet 12y agoIt's an interesting question because many more well know startups use AWS (Airbnb, Pinterest, Etsy, Spotify). Amazon has a webpage specifically to highlight them: http://aws.amazon.com/start-ups/ http://aws.amazon.com/start-ups/. It's hard to imagine that Instacart would be the startup that would be offered as an example by Amazon or the reporter's network. It wouldn't surprise me if reporter was friends with the founders.
