    #696: [The Frugal Architect w/Werner Vogels] WeTransfer's journey to cut costs, not corners
    2024/11/25
    Join Simon Elisha and Dr. Werner Vogels, as they kick off a new mini-series, "The Frugal Architect," with Dan Conti, whose journey from the constrained world of embedded systems to WeTransfer's cloud architecture is a masterclass in frugal innovation. In his early career, Dan wrestled with MP3 players where 48K of RAM was a luxury. This experience cultivated a deep appreciation for efficiency that would prove crucial at WeTransfer. As CTO, Dan applied this resourceful mindset to cloud computing, where easy scaling often masked hidden waste. His team's efforts to optimize storage, improve observability, and align technology with environmental values showcased that in the cloud, frugality isn't about penny-pinching—it's about squeezing every ounce of value from your architecture -- and doing it sustainably.

    #694: The AWS Resiliency Lifecycle Framework
    2024/11/11
    In this episode, Jillian and Vrajesh Prajapati, Solutions Architect at AWS, discuss the importance of establishing a resiliency baseline for applications. They cover the three pillars of resiliency: disaster recovery, high availability, and continuous improvement. Vrajesh introduces the AWS Resiliency Lifecycle Framework, which consists of five stages: set objectives, design and implement, pre-deployment and post-deployment activities, operations, and response and learning. They also discuss different disaster recovery architecture patterns, such as backups and restores, pilot light, warm standby, and multi-site active-active. The conversation concludes with a discussion on monitoring resiliency and the importance of incident analysis and correction of errors.
