How Amazon Uses Explosive-Resistant Devices To Transfer Data To AWS

Demand for cloud computing from providers like Amazon Web Services continues to rise from both companies and consumers that rely on remote storage and computing power accessible from anywhere. While other tech giants Google, Microsoft, and IBM are vying to be the go-to providers, Amazon remains the undisputed leader in cloud computing.
Amazon Web Services is behind much of the technology we use every day, from streaming your favorite shows on Netflix to calling a car from Lyft. AWS has been one of Amazon’s most profitable business endeavors as companies abandon their own data centers for Amazon Web Services. Amazon said it has more 4,000 government contracts as well.
But moving data from local servers to the AWS cloud servers can be a challenge. Amazondeveloped physical and rugged products called the Snowball and the Snowmobile to help companies transfer data to the cloud. CNBC got a rare inside look at how Amazon Web Services transfers a large amount of data to the cloud.

    How did Amazon get into web services? Simple: Amazon itself needed *MASSIVE* amounts of computing power to keep up with its own sales, warehousing and shipping operations. As such, Amazon bought so much hardware that they discovered all that computer hardware could be used for web services, and AWS was an outgrowth of using all that hardware to make more money.

    Such practices were very common back in the era of mainframes as many mid-sized, and even many smaller, businesses needed the vast resources, ability to handle large datasets, and high uptime reliability that only mainframes offered but most were not so large that they could fully justify the operating and ownership costs of a mainframe for just their own business needs. So time sharing and remote terminal access became a thing were the business that owned the mainframe could rent or lease their unused capacity to smaller customers thus bringing down the ownership and operating costs for all and making mainframe class resources available to customers that otherwise could not have afforded such had they had to bear all the costs by themselves. Many of the most successful business ideas are more about finding true win-win solutions that fill a vital niche as opposed to opportunistically predatory practices. Win-win solutions tend to create happy long term customers for years to come, which is hard to beat.

    Amazon is not a 5 year old child. They are a professional services company. If they started preventing companies from repatriating their data then AWS would quickly lose customers to Azure. If you want your data back Amazon will likely do it in the same way they transferred it in. You'd just pay the same transfer fees.

Because if AWS goes down in any way, large or small it will effect a lot of the internet. Yet, I love what Amazon did with their snowball transfer devices.

I'll take these 'commercials' over Hauwei brainwashing any day. Some of these 'commercials' also go into how screwed up Amazon is to it's employees how they're based on algorithms and those algorithms are designed where they're never doing enough, to where there's ALWAYS a target to meet. That is screwed up but that's the norm with these companies. Alibaba doesn't even let people into its centres similar to Amazons and people who have talked to Western media in China about their conditions have ended up as part of their 1 million + prisoners in re-education camps with forced labour and even more brainwashing where they're brainwashed into loving the Chinese president and the chinese communist party he's head of.

The visualisation here shows that a megabyte is 1024 kilobytes. This is NOT true. Instead, the visualisations show exbibytes. So either they should have used 1000, or they should have called it mebibytes/kebibytes, etc.

    I work at a biggest ad agency in LA & i deal daily petabytes of data , so we needed something very big where we can keep our data in a data warehouse , so we choose snowflake Data Warehouse which is running on AWS infrastructure for our data analytics operations .Really we need to do something about our data as its getting increased every day .
