Just based on the details mentioned in the keynote, the services API and swarm features look very similar to what's offered by Kubernetes... service discovery, rolling updates, load balancing, health checks, auto-healing, advanced sche

Interesting that they use Vimeo to host their marketing video. Perhaps they need FB Video for Business as well.

I totally respect your perspective, but SaaS is gaining popularity because software customers are making an informed decision about the tradeoffs of product vs service as a delivery model, not because service providers are forcing the SaaS

A big part of the value of AWS Lambda is that it allows you to glue together other AWS services with custom application logic, similar to stored procedures in a database. Without the other AWS services and the event triggers they expose to

That sounds a bit high. Based on numbers from the last few months, GoDaddy has about 40m of the 127m .com domains, or 31%. Sources: http://www.registrarowl.com/report_registrar_total_domains.p... https://www.veri

I'm guessing he means a "Real-time Operational Database". This seems to be a generic term for system like a data warehouse that contains current data, instead of just historical data. If you are taking the output of a Spark f

The close button is there in the upper right hand corner, just not visible when reading in landscape orientation. Rotating to portrait allowed me to close it. Very annoying.

You can pair Lambda up with AWS API Gateway and get something pretty close to App Engine. What sets Lambda apart is that it is event activated, similar to stored procedures in a database. But instead of updates or inserts to tables, Lambda

The CloudFront docs don't mention SSE support and they definitely don't support WebSockets today. That said, with CloudFront Custom Origins you can do "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" [1] which will cause CDN server to deliv

I think the choice of monolith vs microservice should be largely driven by the size of your team. Some guidance I heard on a podcast recently (can't recall which) was to only consider microservices if you had more than 50 people trying

Tutum mentions they manage persistent volumes and handle mapping them to containers at runtime, presumably across different nodes/hosts. Anyone know how that actually works? Is it similar to Flocker at all?

Really like the conversational approach. Nicely done! It would be good to explain upfront how you actually do the cancelation, in this case sending a physical letter on my behalf. I had to fill out the form to get to that part.

My impression is that they have several different backend data stores, each with different trade-offs and consistency models, and they choose the one that makes sense for each app/service. The way Werner describes the ECS data store so

Interesting that Red Hat OpenStack Platform isn't mentioned anywhere on the Developers site, even in the downloads section under "Cloud Products". I guess IaaS infrastructure is less relevant to developers than containers and

I'm interested to see what the server-side components of Relay will look like, especially with the pub-sub/server push functionality mentioned at the end of the presentation. Hopefully that will be included in the reference implem

I will agree that Google mostly has higher quality infrastructure, but faster boot times and lower latency networking aren't what most cloud consumers care about. AWS has been diligently moving up the stack, creating higher level servi

True, but state actors are much more likely to have ISP/backbone fiber taps and DPI equipment in place to make the attack really effective at scale.

Their goal seems to be providing a more convenient way to talk to the lower-level hardware interfaces that are normally not reachable from a running OS. The project includes a generic kernel driver and a python framework for interacting wit

Are there examples of enterprise software with "good taste"? I'm sure someone out there must be doing it correctly. I agree that the interfaces from the screenshots looked cluttered, but I think a contrasting shot of a proper

Being on the same network doesn't mean traffic from MVNO subscribers is treated equally. When the big providers have congestion, they will apply QoS to prioritize traffic from their direct subscribers over MVNO traffic.

It's not very clear, but it sounds like a roll up of various *-as-a-Service offerings, each of which may have been #1 in their niche markets. Also the fabled OpenStack InterCloud seems to fall into this business unit. There's a fa

That seems to be the direction Amazon is going with Kindle FreeTime Unlimited, also includes books and apps. Not the best library of content just yet, but it seems to have potential. http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.htm
