- 13. Cloud is Convenient • Instant Provisioning • Pay-as-you-go Pricing • On-demand Scaling • Easier Capacity Planning
- 14. Web Services are Modular • Web Services are modular and self contained. • Web Services have no external dependencies. • Communication is through a well defined API (Application Programming Interface).
- 15. AWS is Modular All AWS Services are self contained and have an API • Each service has a dedicated team. • Each service is self-contained. (no external dependencies) • Each service exposes an API.
- 16. Amazon is Modular Excerpts from a Jeff Bezos memo c2002. • All teams will henceforth expose their data and functionality through service interfaces. • Teams must communicate with each other through these interfaces. • There will be no other form of interprocess communication allowed: no direct linking, no direct reads of another team's data store, no shared-memory model, no back-doors whatsoever. The only communication allowed is via service interface calls over the network. • It doesn't matter what technology they use. HTTP, Corba, Pubsub, custom protocols -- doesn't matter. Bezos doesn't care. • All service interfaces, without exception, must be designed from the ground up to be externalizable. That is to say, the team must plan and design to be able to expose the interface to developers in the outside world. No exceptions. • Anyone who doesn't do this will be fired. • Thank you; have a nice day!
