Episode 129: Amazon’s serverless strategy: what happens next will shock you!

“In Australia, I have access to all the Full House episodes.” We finally nail down Amazon’s strategy with serverless (AWS Lambda), and also go over some recent AWS announcements in the security and compliance area. Plus, Cloudflare’s new consumer DNS service, The Man in the High Castle, and Oracle goes after those sweet government cloud contracts. And, Coté gets a little too angry about Google Fiber giving his neighborhood the finger. This episode brought to you by: Datadog!
