summary

Ten concrete lessons from 10 years of EC2: built on Linux and Xen with heavy internal changes, open-sourced the ECS control plane and the s2n TLS library, and maintain Amazon Linux as a default image. Operability choices include automated APIs instead of SSH, collecting crash dumps and hot-patching kernels to avoid scheduled downtime, forking QEMU to preserve device-model APIs, changing S3 pricing to account for API call rates, and deploying a custom NIC that halves latency and cuts jitter tenfold.
