Verbatim, from the transcripts: the passages where Amazon comes up
B2B Big Data Challenges, Nick Mehta, Gainsight (Data Driven NYC / FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 20:26 Nick Mehta So today we use a combination of Postgres, Mongo, Redshift, and we actually use, um, if the customer is Salesforce, we run some queries live on their platform, and then we blend all those together, run it in Amazon, and then kind of push…

- ▶ 20:45 Nick Mehta So combination of AWS services, a little bit of Heroku as well, Redshift, MongoDB, Postgres.
A Fireside Chat with MapR CTO M.C. Srivas (Data Driven NYC / FirstMark)
- ▶ 18:58 M.C. Srivas Those, the Amazon wants to deliver things with.
The Acceleration of Innovation in Big Data w/ Stefan Groschupf, Datameer
- ▶ 1:39 Stefan Groschupf but I, by the way, I feel like I have to apologize for the German accent, given Amazon's advertisement, so sorry about that.
Machine Learning in Production with Josh Bloom, Co-founder Wise.io
- ▶ 4:05 Josh Bloom Why not just have Amazon do it or your other favorite compute cloud?
Liz Crawford, Birchbox // Data Science & Analytics at Birchbox (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 23:23 Liz Crawford And we do take many things off the shelf, so, um, we use, like other people earlier, we use Redshift, we use Looker,
Ramana Rao, Livefyre // Real-Time Social Engagement (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 12:41 Ramana Rao So we have, um, all, most of it running on AWS.
- ▶ 13:23 Ramana Rao We push static things and many pre-computed things out to CDNs, ah, or stored right there on S-III.
- ▶ 13:51 Ramana Rao We're building out a data warehouse, and that's all on top of cloud-based stuff, Redshift in this case.
- ▶ 22:00 Ramana Rao Once it's in Redshift, uh, we will start, um, playing a lot with the data and looking, looking for things.
Lukas Biewald, CrowdFlower // Enriching Your Data (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 16:03 Lukas Biewald Um, and I can guess your question is, how are we different than Mechanical Turk?
Spencer Kimball, Cockroach Labs // A New Kind of Database (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 5:34 Spencer Kimball Hosted services like DynamoDB, Amazon's Aurora, Google's cloud storage, um, the problem with these is you've got vendor lock-in, and they're all proprietary, so when you actually do want to switch off it because you've become Dropbox or…

- ▶ 8:05 Spencer Kimball Leave that to the AWS people, leave that to Google's cloud people, um, you shouldn't have to notice.
- ▶ 21:30 Spencer Kimball You know, they, they built their whole own, uh, alternative to S 2 times in the scene
David Glueck, Bonobos // Data Science & Engineering at Bonobos (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 7:20 David Glueck The database storage, we, we switched from MySQL into Amazon Redshift, and it didn't have, we didn't have to re-engineer the entire system to pull that off.
- ▶ 11:38 David Glueck You can do the Amazon style.
Joseph Essas, OpenTable // Mining Diner Talk (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 2:43 Joseph Essas We'll also store it in S-III for, um, kind of more long-term processing and trying to get some insights out of it.
Jake Porway, DataKind // Data For The Greater Good (FirstMark / Data Driven NYC)
- ▶ 2:11 Jake Porway Now, you know, whether it's Amazon's recommendation algorithms or Netflix helping us pick better movies, we're pretty good in Wall Street and Silicon Valley at building things to sell things.
- ▶ 5:38 Jake Porway So if you order this from Best Buy or Amazon, they have their own taxonomies for where these fall.
Bob Muglia, Snowflake // Navigating The Cloud (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 3:37 Bob Muglia Um, if you think about infrastructure as a service, and of which Amazon's core, AWS is an example, Azure is another example, infrastructure as a service really takes away the data center and the, the hardware, but it leaves the task of… 4 times in the scene

- ▶ 4:17 Bob Muglia And here, probably the, the, the examples that many people think about, at least with regards to data warehousing and, and the big data space, are things like Amazon's Redshift or Elastic MacReduce or EMR.

- ▶ 6:35 Bob Muglia Our primary data store with Snowflake is S-III.
- ▶ 6:38 Bob Muglia Which provides an incredible degree of scalability and durability, 11 nines of durability, and yet we separate all the compute from that, running that as a set of what we call a virtual warehouse, which is a set of Amazon EC two nodes, um,…
- ▶ 7:11 Bob Muglia And none of that is possible with a traditional data warehouse running on premises or even a traditional data warehouse like Redshift running within, within a, a cloud environment.
- ▶ 14:29 Bob Muglia In the case of, of where we are, Amazon, Oregon, there are three availability zones, and we run across all of them.
- ▶ 14:35 Bob Muglia The data is actually replicated, the core data is actually replicated using S-III,
- ▶ 16:35 Bob Muglia Than other cloud solutions like Redshift.
- ▶ 19:00 Atul Chabra Because, uh, running in AWS, you have access to ample computer storage resources, but it,
- ▶ 21:13 Tony Baer Yeah, I mean, so first of all, what I'll say is the architecture that we've built, that where we separate the data from the compute, the way we've done it, we think is pretty unique, and certainly in terms of having a product that is… 5 times in the scene
- ▶ 22:12 Bob Muglia I mean, Redshift is fundamentally par Excel, ah, traditional data warehouse hosted within Amazon, and, and, you know, we're a completely different design.
- ▶ 22:49 Bob Muglia So what we do is the data is permanently stored in blob storage in S-three. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 23:00 Bob Muglia Um, which is essentially a set of, of EC two compute nodes.
Scott Crouch and EJ Bensing, Mark43 // Reimagining Police Software (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 16:26 Scott Crouch so I mean, um, you know, where we're moving it to is, uh, Amazon Web Services has something called USGovCloud, which is basically their compliant version of their lovely AWS system. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 16:36 Scott Crouch So, a while back, ah, when the CIA decided to work with Amazon to build their cloud, they started working on this kind of separate version that was complying not only with, you know, HIPAA and FedRAMP, but also with something called CJIS,… 3 times in the scene
Ryan Smith, Qualtrics // The Qualtrics Story // Data Driven NYC (FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 28:52 Ryan Smith Um, you know, we took an infrastructure guy out of Amazon who set up the whole, um, infrastructure for, for delivery there.
- ▶ 28:59 Ryan Smith Um, we just took another person who was, was pretty integral in launching Echo.
Ion Stoica, Databricks // Creating Apache Spark // Data Driven NYC (FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 15:27 Ion Stoica Ah, today we run in Amazon, AWS.
- ▶ 25:49 Ion Stoica You know, if you, if you hear, ah, you know, if you listen to Amazon, they tell you that they have one million customers on AWS.

Zach Weinberg, Flatiron Health // Using Data to Cure Cancer // Data Driven NYC (FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 9:13 Zach Weinberg You could think kind of a, a specialized version of Mechanical Turk, for those who are familiar.
Chris Wiggins, NY Times // Data Science at The New York Times (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)
- ▶ 18:24 Chris Wiggins Elastic MapReduce, proper MapReduce in Java.
- ▶ 18:27 Chris Wiggins There's a lot of use of, um, both S-III and HDFS, so we do a lot of MapReduce jobs to chomp up huge JSON buckets of our own design in S-III via EC-II in order to render it down to a bite-sized data table so we can beat it down with…

- ▶ 19:30 Chris Wiggins Actually, the, one of the people who, who sort of is in charge of data architecture just arrived from, um, Amazon, and he's well literate in all of AWS and Dynamo for that matter.
