Surely Netflix pays only a small fraction of list price for AWS.

I wonder how that reduced price might influence the technical advice from Netflix.

Further to this …. following the technical advice of Netflix on AWS may well bankrupt you given how low Netflix pays for AWS.

I wouldn’t be racing to emulate the way they do things.

Netflix or not, emulating how someone else conducts their business without a firm understanding of the underlying reasons is often a bad idea.

I imagine most medium to large enterprises using AWS have some discount, especially if you are operating at the kinds of scale that this article deals in.
