I don't think you understand the nature of the problem if you think no action by customers was required. I think the response from amazon was fine and they are clearly not amateurs technically, communication was very…
if it matters, must have backups! ( +replication +geographical distribution etc as needs must ) Even a perfect database, should such a thing ever exist, is not sufficient to protect us from a determined disaster
and unfortunately, they are the only ones who can offer support or implement a patch for their software! With postgres and mysql you can find many companies competing to offer great service, and who can contribute their…
may be a problem, there are workarounds, and workloads where it is not required, but I agree, merge/upsert is a much anticipated enhancement.
I find the official documentation to be superior for postgres (YMMV), but I think there are certainly more examples / blogs / tutorials for MySQL. I prefer to work with Postgres when I can, but I also have found…
This actually made me think of: Oracle's "UTF8" vs "AL32UTF8" which I consider to be a gotcha, even though it is reasonable in terms of the evolution of the standard, a modern land mine perhaps. The lack of limit sucks,…
What if we think about it in terms of augmentation of capabilities and something that is divorced from this implementation. People want to have the capabilities, without being seen to be entrapped by them. An example I…
I have a bluetooth headset for making phone calls more safely with my older car (not capable of interfacing directly with my phone), and I don't agree with demonizing headset users, but the biggest issue that I…

I don't like rhetoric either. I think it is good to consider the facts, and for me generally the situation/environment/problem as much as possible. I like to consider the problem, before I recommend a solution generally…
Awesome, thanks for the reply. It may not have been something which you wanted to do, but I think it is a really interesting problem, and I bet it has been rewarding for both business, and in a pure engineering sense.…

Would you mind sharing details ( process wise) of what they did to validate that it was a legitimate request from the account holder?
