15 years of Amazon S3 - Foundations of Cloud Infrastructure
summary
Celebrating 15 years since S3 launched in 2006 the talk gives concrete scale and engineering choices: S3 runs 100+ trillion objects with peaks of tens of millions requests/sec, preserves durability and availability by default, and expands features like S3 Select and Athena integration while inventing new primitives (and extending EBS) to meet customer-driven needs. Simplicity, security by default, and customer obsession drive which building blocks are actually implemented and operated.
