   I received this email. I am quite surprised I haven't seen a single word of sorry/apologize/mistake in the email.

   It would be more easy for you to switch to other providers if you own your domain - now you know why Google removed the free Google app for custom domain last year...Don't forget the story of XMPP, who know they will not remove pop3&#x

   I believe most anayltics platforms use/support GET, e.g. google analytics, mixpanel etc. If you limit yourself to use only POST, you will limit users from using your tool in areas like email pixel tracking where only GET is allowed.

   The current R53 health check does not support SSL endpoints, which is rather critical for our use-cases. Please make it happen, thanks.

    I am quite surprised no one has mentioned SoftLayer. Isn't IBM buy SoftLayer for their cloud offerings?

    They might share similar look-and-feel now but I think they are not the same thing, i.e. Python vs Java (Stash).

    For starter nginx's configuration, the h5bp nginx config [1] is pretty awesome, e.g. sending correct mime types, protecting hidden files, cross domain webfont, expires, gzip, server tunings all included. [1] https://github.c

    According to the article, the interviewee used to work at DataStax (leader in Cassandra) before joining Instagram. I guess this is one of the reason why they first considered Cassandra and it turned out to be very successful. Biased or not

    Yes you are right, and you also need to include the storage cost. I pick the min. cost for EC2 as my point is to show you that SL isn't much cheaper by a lot (at least using the official channel)
