We decided to use our inventive powers to design and build a new database engine that would give database systems such as MySQL and PostgreSQL reliability and performance at scale, at a level that could serve even the most demanding OLTP applications.

Since then, AWS has added another PoP in Palermo in 2017. The website went online in less than one month and was able to support a 250 percent increase in traffic around the launch of the Aventador J. To meet such large traffic numbers, they need a technology infrastructure that is secure, reliable, and flexible.

TL;DR: A lot has changed since 2017 when we last estimated a global baseline resource per-page resource budget of 130-170KiB. To update our global baseline from 2017, we want to update our priors on a few dimensions: The evolved device landscape. Modern network performance and availability. The Moto G4 , for example.

There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA. This is unfortunate, because we’d really like to be able to build systems that have an SLA that we can share with the consumers of our interfaces, and be able to measure how well we are doing.

With these requirements in mind, and a willingness to question the status quo, a small group of distributed systems experts came together and designed a horizontally scalable distributed database that would scale out for both reads and writes to meet the long-term needs of our business. This was the genesis of the Amazon Dynamo database.

De-duplication can prevent multiple copies on disk, but we're out of luck on reducing network costs. Shared caches must make sense within this value system. That is unlikely given the need for SRI annotations or the unbecoming practice of speeding up high-traffic sites, but not others. That's how much wire size matters.
