" summary

AWS describes moving from a monolithic warehouse (live migration Nov 2018) to a decentralized platform that automates publishing with data contract metadata (SLAs, quality, end‑of‑life), using S3, Lake Formation, Glue, Redshift Spectrum, Athena, Macie and CloudFormation. A migration moves over a million analytics jobs for ~80,000 users and 50 PB in 18 months. Success patterns: start small, experiment, then optimize (federation vs prejoin), add product managers, and adopt hybrid funding and upskilling.
