This document discusses how AWS enables lean IT practices like experimentation, measurement, embracing failure, iteration, and focus on the business. It provides examples of how AWS allows for low-cost experimentation and failure through its elastic and pay-as-you-go model. Game days are proposed as a way to simulate crisis situations in a controlled environment using AWS to test procedures and architectures without risk to production systems. Frequent deployment and automation are also discussed as lean practices enabled by AWS.
