Data access patterns in the Amazon.com technology platform
Werner Vogels · Very Large Data Bases · 2007
The Amazon.com technology platform provides a set of highly advanced business and infrastructure services implemented using ultra-scalable distributed systems technologies. Within this environment we can identify a number of specific data access patterns, each with their own availability, consistency, performance and operational requirements in order to serve a collection of highly diverse business processes. In this presentation we will reviews these different patterns in detail and discuss which technologies are required to support them in an always-on environment.
