A Day in the Life of a Billion Packets (CPN401) | AWS re:Invent 2013

In this talk, we walk through the VPC network presentation, and describe the problems we were trying to solve. Next, we walk through how these problems are traditionally solved, and why those solutions are not scalable, cheap, or secure enough for AWS. Finally, we provide an overview of the solution that we've implemented and discuss some of the unique mechanisms that we use to ensure customer isolation.

An amazing talk that peels the layer behind how VPC is implemented behind the scenes and how L2 and L3 networking is done between servers in a VPC.
Reimagining what has been done and dusted for so many decades.

I can't look at Eric without thinking about Jordan Peele. Like I'm being pranked and Keegan is gonna ask a silly question in a second and derail the talk. Good info though. Love this talk.

When did Jim Gaffigan start working at AWS?

[@D35TR00]

This presenter obviously has no network background. Ether no network background and he is ignorant to facts or he is a doesn't mind telling lies. Either he a liar or ignorant.

[@SwarangaSarma]

Why do you say so?
