Reading the Amazon S3 verification paper from SOSP. It makes so much sense! Rather than write separate specs, just leverage the dummy implementations we use already for tests which are guaranteed to not diverge... This is terrific work Andrew Warfield and all the other authors!

Very cool to see TLA+, P, and Dafny code on the keynote stage at AWS re:Invent.

Tens of thousands of S3 customers have buckets that are spread over a million drives or more!

I got to give a talk at FAST about how hard drives work, how millions of hard drives work, how an organization with millions of hard drives works, and then a little about how i work in an organization with millions of hard drives. youtube.com/watch?v=sc3J4M…

Here's a neat thing that we released today. aws.amazon.com/blogs/storage/… github.com/awslabs/mountp…

Werner asked me to put together a written version of some of the material from the FAST talk that I did earlier this year. The article is up this morning on #allthingsdistributed.

This morning I'm coming to terms that it's been 20 years since we wrote the Xen paper. That sure went by fast!

I am so excited at our launch of S3 Express One Zone. This product has been an incredible amount of really innovative work from an incredible team and it's wonderful to finally be able to share it with customers! aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-…

Almost time to talk about storage!

Last week was re:Invent, this week I'm helping my dad build barn doors. #storage #builders

Hey Look Bindings, I absolutely loved my pivot 360s. Right until the metal snapped and turned them into a sharp edge attached to my ski as I fell down the run.

Really fun post from Werner and team about building with rust, media summarization, and the importance (and enjoyment!) of tinkering in systems. Great read. allthingsdistributed.com/2024/06/introd…

Wish we'd thought of positioning it this way...

Today is #PiDay. I wrote an article for Werner Vogels's blog about how important the idea of simplicity is in S3 and reflect on some examples of how simplicity has influenced S3's design over almost two decades. allthingsdistributed.com/2025/03/in-s3-…
