    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Ah, Amazon. One of the biggest opportunities for a start-up manufacturer, especially one that’s avoiding traditional distribution. If you can keep it from eating you, that is…
 
Disclaimer: This chapter will most likely irritate many an Amazon devotee, since it looks at things from the seller side, rather than simply the buyer side.
 
However, to be clear, this isn’t an Amazon-slamming screed. This is a realistic, eyes-open guide to the pluses and minuses of selling on Amazon. This is especially important for companies primarily doing direct sale, and are looking to expand their sales channel. For companies selling through distribution, especially those selling through large chains, none of this will be a surprise. In fact, it will probably seem like amateur hour to them, since they’ve probably undergone much larger trials and tribulations than any that Amazon seller can imagine.
 
“Wait, what are you talking about? Trials and tribulations with big retailers? What are you talking about?” you may be asking.
 
So, before we dive into Amazon, let’s talk about the alternatives first—looking at both the good, and not-so-good aspects.]]></description>

    <link>http://37signals.com/svn/posts/3289-some-advice-from-jeff-bezos</link>
    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Jeff Bezos stopped by our office yesterday and spent about 90 minutes with us talking product strategy. Before he left, he spent about 45 minutes taking general Q&A from everyone at the office.
During one of his answers, he shared an enlightened observation about people who are “right a lot”.

He said people who were right a lot of the time were people who often changed their minds. He doesn’t think consistency of thought is a particularly positive trait. It’s perfectly healthy — encouraged, even — to have an idea tomorrow that contradicted your idea today.
He’s observed that the smartest people are constantly revising their understanding, reconsidering a problem they thought they’d already solved. They’re open to new points of view, new information, new ideas, contradictions, and challenges to their own way of thinking.
This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have a well formed point of view, but it means you should consider your point of view as temporary.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[I started my startup journey about 4 years back, right around the time Amazon introduced AWS. We started with a VPS and eventually moved to dedicated servers for Muziboo, completely skipping the cloud wave. We are doing the same for SupportBee. We do use S3 but we never used EC2 for hosting. However, I have worked as a consultant a couple of times in the last few years and I have worked with EC2 on client projects. I understand the benefits of cloud hosting but I don’t think that cloud is the right solution for every company. Traditional dedicated server hosting still makes a lot sense for majority of companies out there. However, before I get to that, let’s first quickly go over the benefits of cloud hosting]]></description>

    <link>https://nimbus.io/</link>
    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Architecture
Nimbus.io uses parity striping to spread data across many servers redundantly - providing bulk storage with equal reliability and less than half the overhead of replication based storage systems.

View details »

Documentation
The API is similar to S3 or Rackspace Cloud Files - favoring JSON over XML. For easy portability, we supply libraries to use Nimbus.io as drop-in alternatives for the most popular libraries to access competing cloud storage platforms.

The server and client components are all free and open source software. The server software is made available under the AGPL license. Clients libraries are available under LGPL.

Pricing
$6 per 100GB of purchased storage. Transfer in is always free. Transfer out is $0.06/GB. PUT and LISTMATCH requests are $0.01 per 1000. Other requests are $0.01 per 10,000 or free.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[First and foremost, and this can’t be said nearly enough for all those people jumping on EC2 because it’s flexible, EC2 instances are ephemeral. That means they can and do disappear at random. If there is a hardware failure in the physical node that hosts your instance it will simply disappear, along with any data that isn’t on an EBS device; you’re supposed to account for these types of things in your application design.

That means either some kind of heartbeat / load balanced setup1 where a server that disappears is automatically removed from the rotation or some other kind of monitoring, possibly a similar heartbeat system that uses that API to immediately spin up a replacement for the missing instance2.]]></description>
