    In case anyone is interested, Amazon has headquarters in Seattle, Washington and Crystal City, Virginia. They also have data centers in Ashburn, Virginia, Portland, Oregon, and Oakland, California. There’s more, obviously, but those are the ones I have ideas on the location of. The data centers are harder to find. For those you’ll likely need a contact to help you. Your allies will be Amazon employees and meter checkers. You’ll be looking for a building with MASSIVE power draw. And hey. Even if you don’t find an Amazon data center, it’s still good to find buildings with massive power draws because… Well… That’s the worst thing these companies are doing

        Whatever you do don’t use bucket replication and lambdas to push a massive number of small objects into one bucket that then blows up another bucket

        That was the best day ever when it went down a few years ago while I was doing an install of an Amazon site. They have some “test” software that we have to run to validate the system and it was completely down. Still got some things done that day, but it was utterly hilarious to watch all of the Amazon personnel run around in a panic for a few hours. Fucking Prime trucks stuck on the side of the road with no instructions on what to do next. Utterly precious.
