Don't hold having an MBA against Jassy :). I have been in those ops meetings at AWS when Andy Jassy and Charlie Bell used to hold court. There wasn't much MBA-speak there. Jassy can burrow through deeply technical…
This problem would have been even more pronounced if running from a co-lo/non-cloud entity. Imagine getting a court-ordered shutdown or confiscation of servers for evidence etc. Frankly you would expect a…
