Absolutely, but the cost of perfection (100% uptime in this case) is infinite. As long as the outages are rare enough and you automatically fail over to a different region, what's the problem?

In AWS, if you take out one of dynamo db, S3 or lambda you're going to be in a world of pain. Any architecture will likely use those somewhere including all the other services on top. If in your own datacenter your storage service goes

I know this isn't black and white but if you're worried about depreciation you just shouldn't buy a new car. A car you buy new and sell after a short amount of time or not many miles driven is going to cost you.

A lot of new cars in western Europe are bought as company cars or leased by a company. Companies never buy used, so I think a lot of those sales are from buyers who wouldn't consider used. So those buyers are only now starting to creat

Lambda does get expensive when call volume goes up. If you're handling 10rps typically, ECS becomes a lot cheaper. It obviously depends on how long your request last but still. As for running it locally, it depends what your upstream i

This question has been asked for driverless cars or autonomously driving cars. However it may apply to AI as well when people rely on it for non trivial tasks. Let's say I file my expense report with AI and AI basically makes mistakes
