Amazon.com runs some of the world's largest distributed systems at scale. Much of the internet relies on these services to be highly available, performant, and to scale virtually limitlessly. This session will be a deep dive into the history of NoSQL at Amazon.com, from the world of relational databases, to the Dynamo days, to the world of managed services like DynamoDB. We will cover lessons we learned facing Amazon Web Services, as well as internal services that power much of Amazon.com and AWS behind the scenes. Come learn how our distributed systems evolved over the last decade to take on their current form and hear insights that will help you get a running start with yours. We cover deployment practices, testing and modeling methodologies, as well as how we continuously improve operations every day.
