How did Amazon get into web services? Simple: Amazon itself needed *MASSIVE* amounts of computing power to keep up with its own sales, warehousing and shipping operations. As such, Amazon bought so much hardware that they discovered all that computer hardware could be used for web services, and AWS was an outgrowth of using all that hardware to make more money.
AFAIR Amazon always needed a lot of computing power around Christmas. The rest of the year the servers were just idling. This is how they got the cloud idea. Clever. I wish I would have worked for such a company, not at boring S*e*e*s (not always boring, but in grand total, sadly).
Such practices were very common back in the era of mainframes as many mid-sized, and even many smaller, businesses needed the vast resources, ability to handle large datasets, and high uptime reliability that only mainframes offered but most were not so large that they could fully justify the operating and ownership costs of a mainframe for just their own business needs. So time sharing and remote terminal access became a thing were the business that owned the mainframe could rent or lease their unused capacity to smaller customers thus bringing down the ownership and operating costs for all and making mainframe class resources available to customers that otherwise could not have afforded such had they had to bear all the costs by themselves. Many of the most successful business ideas are more about finding true win-win solutions that fill a vital niche as opposed to opportunistically predatory practices. Win-win solutions tend to create happy long term customers for years to come, which is hard to beat.

Amazon is not a 5 year old child. They are a professional services company. If they started preventing companies from repatriating their data then AWS would quickly lose customers to Azure. If you want your data back Amazon will likely do it in the same way they transferred it in. You'd just pay the same transfer fees.
In theory it should actually weigh less. Because when it's full it means it used energy, weather that's battery/gas of the snowmobile. Idk I might be wrong.

Your data or application would hardly be NOT available on AWS or any other MAJOR cloud provider. You can choose to host your data or application in diverse geographical regions, which are totally isolated from each other for backup and availability purposes.
But it will cost you way more than it should and it will cost you a fortune if you ever want to download it. There is a reason uploads are cheap and downloads are expensive.

Look up asymptomatic complexity, us programmers deal with this stuff daily, given a large enough input, the computational cost can easily outweigh physical travel
I was surprised to learn not too long ago that overseas internet connections are actually under seas. We still move most of the data through cables laid across the ocean bottom, not satellites.
They are two entirely different things. ISPs provide network access and have giant sprawling networks to maintain. Cloud computing's entire purpose is to consolidate the compute and storage infrastructure to gain economies of scale.
ISPs? 70/mo for 100mbps unlimited download? That's mb/sec, you don't have drives to fill if you downloaded all day. Are you confusing ISP for Server/Vps??
I'm guessing that like the UK your end supplier piggy backs on a national wire/fibre network. When you add up all of the pockets being filled low pricing is an impossibility. Welcome to capitalism Western style where we make it ever more complex and expensive with profits to boot. One telecom provider, with one ISP, sold and supplied under one company. Monopoly, I hear you cry. Efficiency, I cry back. We've been duped into high prices by corporate mergers and breaking up monopolies. A corporate entity can have many end brands but one cost base.

Its physics, transferring data over fiber and light will always trump the transfer of data over air wave frequencies. It's just a physical limitation.
William the butchers son productions how much you want to bet that that is what Amazon is working on next?
Look up asymptomatic complexity, us programmers deal with this stuff daily, given a large enough input, the computational cost can easily outweigh physical travel
I was surprised to learn not too long ago that overseas internet connections are actually under seas. We still move most of the data through cables laid across the ocean bottom, not satellites.
@@joesterling4299 wired connections always have been and always will be more powerful, faster, and more reliable than wireless ones.
Cloud computer is super competitive and affortable. Meanwhile ISPs prices are ridiculous, i wont mint that these companies become ISPs
Heh, Google Fiber? ;)
Blame local governments that give local monopolies to ISPs.
They are two entirely different things. ISPs provide network access and have giant sprawling networks to maintain. Cloud computing's entire purpose is to consolidate the compute and storage infrastructure to gain economies of scale.
ISPs? 70/mo for 100mbps unlimited download? That's mb/sec, you don't have drives to fill if you downloaded all day. Are you confusing ISP for Server/Vps??
I'm guessing that like the UK your end supplier piggy backs on a national wire/fibre network. When you add up all of the pockets being filled low pricing is an impossibility. Welcome to capitalism Western style where we make it ever more complex and expensive with profits to boot. One telecom provider, with one ISP, sold and supplied under one company. Monopoly, I hear you cry. Efficiency, I cry back. We've been duped into high prices by corporate mergers and breaking up monopolies. A corporate entity can have many end brands but one cost base. Savings = Bonuses!
So they are basically the same boxes from silicon valley... XD
same thing that came to mind lol
"They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the Internet. And again, the Internet is not something you just dump something on. *It's not a truck.* It's a series of tubes." - Genius tech visionary Ted Stevens, 2006
Even as an electrical engineer, I'd say this was good reporting.
"Minus 20..."
Russia: Am I a joke to you?
-20 F is -28 C.
This really explains why everybody has to make a deal with Amazon for streaming. Amazon can upload a whole streaming catalog into every major server around the world
After 10 years this snowball will be the size of a memory card
Cloud infrastructure blows my mind.

His eyes shined when he mentioned about the drop test 😁.

Just FYI, the new solid state high density Snowball Edge devices are out now, so we can move as much in a van as we did 4 years ago in a SnowMobile! Great to see this continuing to advance. Also, new Snowball Edge compute has GPUs and a bunch of x86 cores for model training and inference on the edge
I think it was another CNBC (though I could be wrong) video that explained that the reason that Amazon is able to offer products online for so cheap is because they are able to subsidize their business by AWS sales. Makes it impossible for other businesses to compete...
That's why Amazon is growing rapidly with Huge Income every year
This reminds me of those Compaq CPU cases back in 2000's, but in two years from now a data box will fit in your pocket, we will be able to transfer hundreds of Terabytes of data in a matter of seconds.
Not that quick
@@o0ooo0 only time will tell
@@muskreality yeah, no. not nearly that quick.
Now two years have passed since your comment. Where are my pocket-sized 1PB SSD´s? ;-)
A Must watch, now there's no surprise on how they can have the upper hand not only on there competitors but aswell there clients.
Aws biggest advantage is customer support
Rishab R it’s the fact they make creating SAAS hosting accounts so easy
I get more calls from Microsoft tech support tbh
@@saltysoysauce954 lol
Amazon, the beast who exists to swallow up entire retail and cloud business and pays no tax.
NOW THAT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT IS INSIDE THE WHITE TRUCK...
IT'S NOT A SECRET ANYMORE

They have the paint with other things as well as all white. Trust me, you wouldn’t notice if it passed you
What about the cooling systems underneath the trailer...
@@bookshelffury There's hundreds of thousands of trailers with cooling systems for various things like food. You won't notice this one.
@@evilbred974 how about the armed guards and escorts
vash42165 some are inside, in the passenger seat, driving a mile or so behind and ahead. Will never notice them
These kind of journalistic videos by CNBC are quite enlightening.
When I think of war-proof boxes that can withstand extreme conditions, I think of snowball
When no one is looking the container slowly floats off.... True story.
oh, it's a 13 minutes ad for Amazon Web Services
rip
It's really not, trust me. We (random youtubers) are not their customers. Everyone that might benefit from this service found out about it way before this video was made.
CNBC is Amazon's biggest fan
Had a few of these lager Snowballs in my office when we were migrating to AWS. They are super heavy! Felt like they were full of lead. Super cool though.
The cable management on these server racks make me uncomfortable
That CNBC guy's continuous head tilt made my neck hurt.
Amazon took the expression "Truckloads of Data" seriously.
Great videos! I did not know that Intuit tax preparation software involves AWS (Amazon Web Services), or that the SuperBowl involves AWS! This is illuminating content!
yess!!
I enjoy making money online,there is this good feelings it gives me

I work for the company that manufactures those explosive resistant drives - Western Digital.
Finally a storage device fit to be shipped via FedEx.
Driving that truck onto stage was an alpha flex
Damn! I was going to start a business just like this but with 3.5" floppy disks instead, a.k.a. sneaker net.
In the very early days of Amazon, they would load all the transactions onto floppy discs and take them over to the one computer they used to process them manually. It was called sneakernet.
Got to hand it to CNBC, they've got great tech videos
amazon is becoming our overlords
The truck idea will be hilarious 50 years from now

as time passes and technology flourishes, preserving original data will become ever more important.
6:35 normally a cube has more than 4 corners.
Amazing. Amazon producing more or less magic compared to what we had just 20 years ago
The fastest way to move data is UPS haha
It's O(1) speed instead of O(n)
How to lose data :D
@@Piggy991 you have it confused with USPS
What a thorough amazon ad.
12:10 that is the Samaritan interface from Person of Interest right?
AHAHAHAHA
What’s wild is that it isn’t rated for winter in North Dakota lol -20 isn’t enough for these ridiculous months
Informative👍 !! Good video
It would be so awesome to get a job dealing with these things on the daily! Exciting!!!
