live from Las Vegas it's the cube covering AWS reinvent 2018 brought to you by Amazon Web Services Intel and their ecosystem partners okay welcome back and we're live here in Las Vegas day three last interview of the day three days of wall-to-wall coverage two sets here at AWS reinvent 2018 our sixth year we've been at every reinvent except for the first one and it's been great to watch the rise I'm Jeff we're with Dean Volante we're here with Andy Jesse the CEO of AWS started this as it working backwards document years ago twelve years ago 12 half year zine years ago was when the document was written and we've launched 12 and a half years ago great to see you thanks for spending time I know you're super busy congratulations we met last week you couldn't really talk about it but boy there was so much more payload in the announcements than they were before are you happy with the results certainly three our keynote was taxing what's good impression when the keynote was over but ya know we're thrilled with it and most importantly the reason we're thrilled is because our customers are thrilled I think they just couldn't believe how much we delivered this week you know well over 100 capabilities and they were super excited about you know the storage announced was the thing is when you have millions of customers any announcement you make is going to be popular with thousands of customers so some people walked up to me and said oh I know it's not sexy but I love the storage announcements I needed the file systems I wanted that glacier deep archive some customers love the database releases with lots of customers that were excited about the machine learning piece and you know the another unsexy one where the enterprise abstractions just to make it so much easier for that type of builder who wants more prescriptive guidance to be able to get started quicker and then you know people are pretty excited that outpost too so it has you a question I'll talk Amazon speak now what what areas of the show do you feel you raise the bar this year on what was that what would you point to bar raising moments announcements well you know I think each year one of the things I like about reinvent and that we work hard on is we'd like to have we don't really want it to be a corporate event we wanted to be quirky and we want it to be authentic and we want you know we want our community to fit to have fun here while they also learn so you know Midnight Madness is for instance something we do every you know we've done the last couple years and we try radically different things and so I thought that Tatanka eating contest raised the bar is again this year was the second year in a row that we said again as political World Records and you know I thought I really liked Peter De Santis --is and Myrna Vogel's keynotes on Monday and today respectively I thought they both were fantastic and you know keep raising the bar are you over a year and you know so they're you know we're hoping I too will be something that people feel like raise the bar year over year what the house band synchronicity was quite good too you know yeah I tell you that that fan is terrific and you know and I think that again all those things I mentioned are part of what we you know think makes the event fun and quirky and different but the most important thing by far is the learning of the education and then our customers excited about not just the platform but we launched so many things do they feel like it helps them do their job better well while we're on the raising bar we've got a prop here this is the the deep racer deep the deep racer machine learning it's a toy for testing and the question comes up how old do you have to be to use this and I said hey if your kid can code machine learning good for them but talk about this because this is kind of interesting because it's fun but where'd this come from you know it came from last year when we release sage maker and we were making machine learning so much easier for everyday developers of scientists we said what can we do to give people hands-on experience because you learn things better if you actually try it and so we tried to help developers get more experience to computer vision by having a deep lens you know video camera and that was wildly popular and so as we were thinking about this year making reinforcement learning available as easily as we are in sage maker which we think is a huge potential game-changer grant Forsman learning the team kept thinking about it's great but nobody knows enforcement learning and nobody has experienced with it how can we give them experience what are ways they can get hands-on experience and that's how the deep racer car came up which is really making it simple where they can just give us a reward function with a line of Python strip and then Sage Maker will automatically train an RL algorithm and then they get to play it to the car and then race against one another and when we watched how competitive it was getting inside our own house on these RL infused cars racing each other we figured other people might find a compelling as well and I couldn't believe how many people participate yesterday yeah and then I don't know if you saw it three burners right before burners keynote the finals were really exciting to like the fact that there were some imperfections were actually made it more compelling to watch and so we had a racer Cup coming up - I met play 19 competitive yes that's going to happen yeah today was the accelerated version of the first ever deep racer League championship Cup but next year will be a full season at our 20 AWS summits the top winners in the in the deep racers you see bracer League races at each of those summits plus the top 10 vote getters in points from those summits will come here and compete for the championship Cup now you and I talked about a new persona last week when we met but now the announcements pretty clear now why this points to a whole new persona developer you got eSports on the twitch side booming heat sports is changing the game and in the whole digital sports category robotics space you got a satellite announcement this is a genre changed in digital culture and you see the AI stuff and machine learning how does the web services stack play in this new world where AI is now a service it's a whole nother paradigm shift what's your thoughts on all that well you know I mean all those areas that were continuing to expand into our areas that our customers are asking us to help them with and where there are huge opportunities for customers but where it's hard I mean if you look at space as an example if you've to interact with a satellite it's it's expensive to have to have all those satellites set up you know and those drown ground antennas set up and then you have to program them and then and you actually have to pay this fixed price instead of on-demand customers so why can't you give us access those satellites the way we consume AWS and then if you can have the ground antennas where when the data comes down from the satellite it's basically on the same premises as your AWS region so we can store the data and process the data analyze it and take action that is very compelling so that that just felt like a natural fit you know and the same thing with robotics I think that robotics is one of the most underrated areas of Technology I think robots will do all kinds of things for us at work and in a home and the tools out there to make it easy to build robotic applications and to do the simulation to deploy them and then have them work with the rest of your applications and infrastructure have been pretty primitive and so robot maker is I agree with you I think you look at the younger generation too even at the high school elementary level people are gravitating towards robotics robotics clubs are booming that maker culture goes through a whole nother level with robotic congratulation you know it's funny we had the youngest person to ever pass the AWS certification exam is a kid named Karthik nine years old passed and he was here this week actually and I got a chance to meet with him today and I said well after the certification what are you doing he said well I'm building a robot you know I'm feeling Ruben he said now with your launch of deep racer I want to try and find a way to to have the deep racer car be the eyes and the camera and the reinforcement learning for my robot nine years old yes it's gonna be a different generation with what they build John and I were talking this morning Andy at our open about you're making it harder for the critics used to be self-service only it criticized your open source contributions the hybrid strategy your turn a tick in the box is on all those outpost was I think surprised a lot of people it didn't so much surprise us that you were moving in that direction but I wonder if you could sort of talk about some of those key initiatives I know it's customer driven but wow the the TAM expansion the the customer value that you're bringing it's like a whole new era that you're entering yeah you know everything we build is you guys know we talk about all the time it's just it's driven by what customers want and so we just started over the last six months you know and really by virtue of having this partnership with VMware where we have a lot of enterprise engagement as they're moving to the cloud using VMware cloud and AWS we had a bunch of customers say it's really great I'm moving most my application of the cloud but there's some that aren't moving for a while because they got to be close to selling on-premises and I want to use AWS for this I don't want a different environment can you just find a way to put some services like compute and storage on-premises and hardware but I want to actually use the same control plan I'm going to use for the rest of AWS and I wanted to easily connect with the rest of my applications in AWS and we had you know we didn't like as you and I talked about a week or two ago we just have not like the model that's been out there so far to do this because it's you know the control plane is different the api's are different the tools are different the hardware is different the functionality is different and customers don't like it's why it's not getting much traction and we didn't want to pursue it if we didn't think it was going to be useful but we had this concept we were working on with a couple customers where they wanted compute and storage on-premises but they wanted to have that connect with all the other applications in the AWS cloud and so we have this idea that maybe this local set of compute and storage would be like a far zone from an availability zone they were using and we started thinking about that and we thought there was much more generalized idea which became outposts and so the thing that I think people are gonna love about that is for the applications that can't move easily because they need to be close slang on-premises you get AWS like real AWS compute real AWS Storage Analytics database sage maker will be in there as well but it's the same api's same control playing the same tools the same hardware we use in our data centers and it will easily connect through the same control plane to the rest of AWS the rest of the services and the rest of their applications there so and it provides a platform for a whole host of new services down I mean every customer meeting I've had in the last we made the announcement people are excited about I want to ask you guys are talking about all the innovation and new areas and we're seeing an expansion of the AWS distinct brand and things like TV advertising statcast I wonder what's behind that can you address that yeah it's a good question I mean there's kind of two different types of I'll call it TV advert Swartz we're doing one is straight-up advertising one is less so which is you know the one that less so is that a number of the sports leagues are really interested in and actually pretty sophisticated in using cloud computing and analytics and machine learning if you look at Major League Baseball now NFL and Formula One and they want to make the user experience and the viewer experience so much better and so they're building on top of AWS and then we like the ability of helping them showcase the capabilities that they're you know both the customer experience and the ml and AI capabilities then there's just a straight-up advertising them that we've been trying we tried a little bit of it last q4 and you know it's always very difficult to quantitatively measure tvf but we have a lot of ways that we try to triangulate that and we were really surprised and what looked like the positive numbers we saw for both TV as well as the outdoor media and things like in the airports and things like that and so we decided we would try it again this q4 and you know I think I would call us right now still experimenting yeah and it's very much kind of what Amazon does which is we try different things to see what resonates the see Whitefield says so so far so good and we expect to keep experimenting I I think that's a good call because the brand lift is probably there I'll see impressions get reach vehicle but you guys are in a rising tide market we're hearing co-creation VMware co-creating deep meaningful partnerships you always talk about that so it's kind of this success model of innovation to reimagine the satellite Lockheed Martin a partnership this seems to be a new way to do business in this rising tide how are you guys getting the word out education people want to know more this is a big kind of movement yeah well you know I think that if you looked at the first several years of AWS I was always surprised when I would go see enterprises and they would have no idea that Amazon was doing anything in the cloud even though we had the only cloud offering at the time so I think if you compare where we were a few years ago to today there's you know gigantic awareness relatively speaking but I still think that there are so many majority of workloads still live on premises I mean we have a twenty seven billion dollar revenue run rate business it's growing forty six percent year-over-year and yet we're still at the early stages of the meet of enterprise of public sector adoption in the u.s. you go outside the US where there twelve to thirty six months behind depending on the country in the industry and sometimes it feels like you know like Groundhog's Day well you guys are doing regions out there Italy as was announced yeah you're expanding very fast globally can you talk about that real quick yeah it's it's a you know we've had customers from 192 countries using AWS for many many years but they've been using AWS in regions outside of their country usually because there are a lot of workloads that could stand that latency and where the data doesn't have to be on natural soil but increasingly if you want to help customers get done what they want to and serve the broader array of their applications you have to have regions in their country both so that they have lower latency to their end users and because the data sovereignty laws which are getting really more rigid rather than more flexible let me ask you a question about competition you you said I can't members on the cube or in person there's no compression reach out gorilla for experience and time elastic economies with scale when you have copycat people trying to copy Amazon how do you talk about some of those things that are those diseconomies of scale what are the points that customers should look at when they say okay I got someone else is talking cloud Amazon's got years of experience ahead of the competition more services what do you talk about what do you point to you it's not about slimming the competition but what is the diseconomy of scale to try to match the trajectory of Amazon yeah it's it's a bunch of things you know first of all it's operational performance you know a lot of the hardest lessons you learn and operating of scale only happen when you get to that level of scale and you know there's some events that we see sometimes elsewhere we look at that and then we read the post-mortem we say oh yeah 2011 you know we remember they went through that I don't wish it on anybody but when you have a business at several times larger than the next or providers combined you just said a different level of scale and you've learned lessons earlier I also think that the reason that we continue to have both so much more functionality and innovate at a faster clip and seem to get capabilities that customers want is because we have so many more customers than anybody else you know a lot of times and this is happening all week to where customers will say to me I can't believe that you knew that I wanted that and I always say it's because you told us yeah it's not like we're Nostradamus you've told us that and so when you have so many more customers and when they feel free to give you feedback and when you've built good mechanisms like we have to get that feedback from the field to the product builders it means there's this real flywheel of getting you know getting more customers leads to more feedback leads to more features leads to better functionality where there's a network effect from being on the platform with all those other customers and all those industries I wonder if you could add some color to a premise that we've put forth on your edge strategy so what you guys you know we do a lot of these shows and a lot of the IOT and edge strategies that we've seen from traditional IT players what you call the old guard have fallen flat in our opinion because it's a top-down approach it reminds us of the Windows Phone it just didn't work and it's not going to work as their operations technologies people we see what you've announced here as a Bottoms Up approach you developing an application platform to build secure and manage apps for those folks right at the edge I wonder if you could add some color to that and some thoughts on your edge strategy yeah I mean again for us if we don't have some top-down strategy that you know that I think is grandiose it's just what customers want and so we have so many customers who have all these devices at the edge and all these assets at the edge and they said to us well the first problem I have I want to get this data into the cloud and then I want to do analytics item we say ok well how can we help they say well the first thing is I don't even know how to translate this data from the device protocol to just being able to operate in the cloud so that's the first problem we go solve well then people say ok now I can get it in but I actually I need security like you know if you look at the amount of security options for these edge devices it's a new field you know let that dine attack that took a lot of the internet down a couple years ago came from you know a device on the edge and so that's why you know we built you know a security capability and people say well okay now you've made it so I can run devices but if I'm gonna run thousands of devices I need a way to manage all those devices of scale and we build telling to manage two devices and people say well ok it's great that I can do it and device is big enough that have a CPU but what about when they don't have a CPU you know they have just a microcontroller and that's why we built the our toss piece and you know the list kind of keeps going people so this is great now that I get all this data in the cloud I can take all these analytics actions but on my device sometimes I don't want to make the round trip to the cloud so can you give me a way to use the same programming model and and pick which triggers I want to take action with cloud versus those that want to take on the device itself which was what green grass was so all of those pieces is not some kind of top-down master plan as much as we know that customers have all these devices the edge that they want to use that data analyze that data take action on that data and send it back in multiple ways and you have you have the cloud platform to give them the services to make the tools the right tools for the right job yeah that's the main team yeah so I got to ask you about one of the big controversies that we don't think that's that controversial but the chips that you announced new Amazon Web Services front microprocessors the chips yeah do two of them talk about them and Intel's also a partner a lot of people are talking about this in the press yeah Intel Amazon chips well that annapurna acquisition is Norton they bear fruit was 2015 I think yeah early it really the annapurna team is fantastic and they've added a huge amount of value to AWS and Amazon as a whole you know the first thing I would say is that Intel is a very deep partner of AWS and will be for a long time I mean that that's not changing and we've been a long thought that they were gonna be lots of different processors out there and and different ones that did different things at different price points and so like a lot of other companies we've been interested in arm for a long time and for a while it wasn't mature enough and the technology is matured and we found a way in in building our own ARM chip with graviton where we think we can allow customers to run a lot of their scale out generalize were close but up to 45 percent less expensively and so when you find a value proposition that compelling for customers you need to do it and you know as I mentioned in the keynote yesterday when we were talking about inference we feel like a lot of the world has been solvent for training and not solvent as much for inference yet and we've made training so much easier with the things that we've built in AWS over the last couple years but inferences where most of the cost is gonna be and so elastic inference we think it you know will allow people to be much more efficient in how they use them for use and how they spend money but when you've got the type of workloads at scale and productions that use whole GPUs or that need that low latency where you need it on the hardware of a chip that's optimized for inference they is faster that's more cost effective that's high throughput we can get hundreds of tops on it and thousands to you ban them together he's gonna totally change the game for imprison and so that was something that wasn't easy for us to find elsewhere and when we have team fortunately they could build it and it's the combination of the elastic service of inference with the chip that makes the difference it specialism there so it's not like I mean you can use each on their own and we expect they'll be a bunch of customers who will use each on their own but there will be an opportunity to use those in combination that will be very powerful it comes down to really deeply understanding the customer problem again at night training versus inference and everybody talks about the training right the the technical challenge you got a child is the internet and tells gonna make a lot of money as it stands expanding market banding so they'll get their share the chips get taped out their con a couple year to three year life cycles and everything starts anew every time somebody's building a new chip so I think it's actually great for customers of all sorts that there's multiple processors that are possible but we will have a deep relationship with Intel forever I think so I want to talk about one of the cool demos you did on stage not a lot you did customer did f1 that was a super cool I love that imagery because it said an analogy of high performance competitive racing that can be applied to this play sports anything and the level of accuracy that they need in the real time time series kind of encapsulates a lot of the cloud value talk about the f1 analytic thing are you guys gonna sponsor these events there's a relationship there give us what the picture of what's going on there you have a deep relationship with Formula One where they're using our platform to to do their all their digital properties as well as their analytics and machine learning and it was super cool to see Ross demo the way that they're changing the user experience for for viewers and you know it's it's it's an amazing sport you know it's not watched as much maybe in the US but outside the US that is the motorsport and the way that they're changing the experience the way that they're able to assess what's happening with drivers and with cars and then predict what's actually happening and make the viewer feel like they're actually either in the cockpit or actually in the pit itself with it with the crew is it's really exciting and it's non err to be a partner so you do some events they'll get the cube they're these these big time again there's a tech angle now and everything it's a plug for you to be at the they have one event cloud demócrata you're hitting now new industries I mean this is the thing right I mean it's disrupting every industry I mean what aren't you disrupting I mean what areas do you see that yet aren't coming online to the cloud I don't see industry segments at this point that aren't moving to the cloud I would have told you 18 to 24 months ago that I felt like financial services was moving a lot more slowly than then I thought they should or you know probably healthcare also was a little bit slower but both of those industry segments are moving very aggressively well it's taking longer they're high-risk industries and the digital transformation has it occurred fast enough but it's coming and there's regulatory pieces that they legitimately have to sort through and you know we have just if you look at financial services as an example we have a pretty significant team that does nothing but work with our partners to help them with the regulatory bodies because what we find is when we go with a customer to a regulator and show them a real use case and then how it will be done in a DOP is the regulator says oh well that's more secure that you do on-premises and so it's just an education process and you know I think that's been helpful in it and I'll get final questions for you what have you observed here at reinvent Houston glad people talking so you get a lot of feedback actually to clopped two-part question because I was asked the final final question so I'll just get it out front what are people missing of all the announcements you've had a lot of signal in there a lot of a lot of announcements what are what is something that you've observed that you think should be amplified that people might have not overlooked but like you feel like it's more important to sign the light on we'll start with that one well you know it's a little hard for me to tell this moment just because there have been so many in such a short amount of time and and if we just look a little bit at the coverage it seems and if I take just as inputs they comments and and the questions from customers it's been pretty broadly understood and people are pretty excited and as I said different segments have kind of their favorite areas but I feel like people are pretty excited by the breadth of capabilities you know I think that if I pick two in particular I would say that people are still in the machine learning space people are blown away by how much we provided are all three layers of the stack I think people are still getting their heads around which layer of the stack am I gonna participate at you know I mean the one that probably has the most potential for most companies is that middle layer because most companies have gobs of data and there are jewels in that data and if you can enable their developers their everyday developers to be able to build models and get at the predictive value and add value that has huge impact for companies moving forward but most modern companies with technology functions will use all three layers of the stack and so just getting their arms around which layers of the stack they should take advantage of first and having the personnel to be able to do it and we're making that much easier with things like sage maker and then you know I think if you look at the blockchain space I think that that is just one of those spaces that has a huge amount of buzz people talk a lot about it exactly sure sometimes what they're gonna do but but I also think that a lot of people said to us that breaking those into those two real customer jobs to be done and then having a great solution that does each of those jobs really well is not only something that AWS does all the time that makes it easier for them but it also made it easier for a lot of them to understand that a lot of customers said to us you know that qld be that ledger database with a single trust of central authority for my supply chain that's what I need for my supply chain I don't need all the complexity of a blockchain framework and then there were a lot of other people said oh yeah that is what I want I wanted to decentralize trust between peers but I just needed a way easier way to manage hyper ledger fabric and etherium so I think those are two that people like are so interested and still figuring out how to use as expansively as I think they hope they will Andy thanks so much for your time and I want to just say watching you guys in the past six years has been a fun journey together but watching the execution you guys have done an amazing job of keeping your eye on the ball and being humble but being proud and loud at the same time so congratulations and you know guns blaring in 2019 what's your top pray all right besides listening to the customers what's your top 20 19 we know you listen to cut oh my gosh we have so many things that we're doing in 2019 but you know we have a lot of delivery in front and in front of us I mean as much as we launched 140 unique things over the last six to eight business days and yet I tell you to stay tuned the rest of 2018 we have more coming and then in nineteen you'll you should expect to see more few capabilities more database capabilities more machine learning capabilities more analytics capability look a lot I could spend all night John we don't need it we don't need a post reinvent post you know traumatic announcements syndrome because just to digest it all yeah it's a lot of work looking forward to seeing how enterprises continue to make to to kind of manage their hybrid approach as they're as they're making this trend transition from on-premises to the cloud how many continue to jump on to VMware cloud an AWS how many jump onto outpost so I think that that transition and helping customers do that easily is something on here of course we'll be commentating and pontificating on that for the next year thanks for your time I really should have me and I appreciate that you guys come at regular pay our pleasure okay winding down that's the last interview here wall to wall covers two cents 110 interviews in the books we'll have 500 video assets total blog post on Sylvia angle calm that's reinvent closing down 2018 thanks for watching [Music]

live from Las Vegas it's the Cuban covering AWS reinvent 2017 presented by AWS Intel and our ecosystem of partners ok welcome back everyone we're here live in Las Vegas forty two thousand plus people maybe forty five huge numbers here at AWS reinvent twin seventeen Amazon Web Services annual conference wall-to-wall coverage our third day I'm John Ferrier the co-founder of silicon Anglo what's two Minutemen we're here with Andy Jesse the CEO of Amazon Web Services the Andy crate to see you again great to see you thanks for having me on graduations we had a great chat a week ago you and I sat down for breakfast and you kind of laid out you kind of laid out with a plan for the show here but I you kind of left a lot out of this you hold it back I've know every three hours from I thought I had a great story you needed the floor our breakfast oh damn it's good what an announcement I mean your keno two and a half hours I mean the longest keynote I've seen just non-stop announces you went right into a no preamble right into the announcements how many announcements did you do like fifty plus or what was the number I think there were 22 news services and features announced in the keynote I did alright so you gotta look back now as it's coming down to an end to reap the parties tonight what's your take I mousey you're absorbing it still he's still kind of like numb pinch me moment what's what's the vibe what are you feeling right now you know it's been a fantastic week and this is our favorite week of the year just having the chance to spend the week with our entire community and I think that it's been a very successful week in terms of what we were trying to accomplish which was it's always first and foremost of learning and education conference and I think that people feel like the array of sessions they've been able to go to and what they've learned both about the services altogether the new services we announced and then just especially what other peers are doing on top of the platform I think has been really valuable and I've had a lot of customer meetings over the last few days and the conversations have been so excited you know people saying I just can't you know you guys already had so much functionality but I just can't believe the amount of innovation and capability the two guys just released over the last couple days and several people said to me you know how to I knew I was having a meeting with you so I had a list of things I was gonna ask you to to deliver and during your keynote I kept going check check check so they're a really positive excited conversation talk about the flywheel what's going on with you guys right now I use that term kind of a pun intended because you've got some flywheel going on as you add more services I detailed in my story after we met I teased out this is a competitive advantage for you you just listen to listening to customers but you're putting out more services there's leveraging those services so it's good for customers but I worry about the complexity and they might worry about the complexity how do you talk about that and how does your team address that because I mean tsunami of services yeah well you know I think that the first thing to remember is that simply because we have a lot of functionality doesn't mean that customers have to know about every single service and every single feature they use what they need when they need it and they don't have to pay for it up front and so you know one of the reasons we release so many things during the area of over 1300 services and features this year alone and in about 70 new releases just at reinvent this week is that when you have millions of active customers you have lots of diversity in those customers you know lots of different businesses lots of different priorities lots of different needs and so you know even in the set of customer meetings I've had this week the first question I asked every single customer i sat down with is what are your impressions what are you excited about they were some who said I can't believe I'm so excited about sage maker it's gonna completely change the accessibility of doing machine learning in my org and some said oh I really really wanted those language application services and machine learning others were totally focused on the multi master or aurora on the global tables for dynamodb and the graph database and then still others said you know I love ECS but I've wanted a kubernetes option and then now that I don't even have to manage containers at the server level and I can manage the task level is what I'm excited about still others who are IOT customers that's what cared about so we have so many customers it was such diversity in their businesses and their priorities that they all have a bunch of needs keep on delivering on that and I want to get your reaction something that we've been talking about in the cube all week which is well I've been pushing its due and I've been kind of debating it but we see a clear path towards a new renaissance in software development and invention and it comes down to some of the things that you guys have enabled we saw a lot of go get excited by some of the deep learning I'll see lecture for business and two other things it's easier to do stuff now the application layer because you don't have to build the full stack so we're you guys are talking about a reimagining architecture that was Vernors keynote it's all kind of pointing to a new Renaissance a new way to create value what's your reaction then how do you share that the customers because it's kind of a new new model yeah well I think that this has been happening now for you know the last ten years and I think that people aren't building applications for the most part the way they used to it you know if you if you're building new applications and you're trying to build all the hosting software and all the storage software and all the database software at all the messaging and queuing and analytics and and machine learning you're just wasting resource because because when you when you have the option of using 120 services from a platform like AWS that has thousands and thousands of people working on it delivering on average three-and-a-half new features a day that you could choose to use or not it's so much faster and so much more empowering to let your builders take advantage of that platform you get from idea to implementation and orders of magnitude faster using the cloud and that you know what keeps happening is we just keep adding more and more capabilities that allow people get now even the marketplace we just had Barry Russell on and you go now are bringing a global reach opportunity so not only can you help them get to market faster with coding and building value this growth so it's not just parking the marketplace and hope that something happens they're taking advantage of that growth I think it's a really important point it's it's not just a set of services that we're building but are thousands and thousands vis--vis and SAS providers who are also building products on top of AWS where their business is growing by leaps and bounds I mean one of the interesting things about the marketplace I don't know how much you guys have talked about this in the past or currently is that most if you talk to most software buyers they hate the process it you know it's just how long it takes the negotiation process most the software sellers also hate the process and so if you can find a mechanism which is what we're trying to provide with the AWS marketplace where buyers and sellers can complete those transactions and find each other so much faster it totally changes the world of buying software and consuming software Andy I came in this week pretty excited to look at the adoption of server lists and you know congratulations you've impressed a lot of announcements talked a lot of customers the thing that probably impressed me the most is it went from being kind of just lambda to really integrated all the service it's a much more holistic view but you made a comment that I that a lot of us in the community kind of you know poked at a little witches if you were to build AWS today in 2017 you would build it you know on you mean Amazon yes sorry Amazon on it today now I've talked to startups that are building all server list but you know it was on D gigantic company and you know I talked to Tim I talked to the team a lot of things I can't do so is this a goal or you know it just being kind of kind of the future or you know do you feel that I can put you know a global you know company of your size you know built with yeah yeah it's a good question and you know I really the comment I made was really about directionally what Amazon would do you know in the city in the very earliest days of AWS Jeff used to say a lot if I were starting Amazon today I'd have built it on top AWS we didn't have all the capability and all the functionality at that very moment but he knew what was coming and he saw what people were still able to accomplish even with where the services were at that point I think the same thing is true here with lambda which is I think if Amazon we're starting today it's a given they would build it on the cloud and I think we with a lot of the applications that comprise Amazon's consumer business we would build those on our server list capabilities now we still have plenty of capabilities and features and functionality we need to add to to lambda and our various serverless services so that may not be true from the get-go right now but I think if you look at the hundreds of thousands of customers who are building on top of lambda and lots of real applications you know FINRA is built a good chunk of their market watch application on top of lambda and Thompson Reuters has built you know that one of their key analytics apps like people are building real serious things on top of lambda and the pace of iteration you'll see there will increase as well and I really believe that to be true over the next year or two and you talked a little bit more about competition than then I'm used to hearing in the keynote I mean there's been some pokes at some of the database stuff in that migration but you know when it walked talked about there was this colorful bar chart you put up and you had some data pointing about that you know in your market chairs growing your continuing growth you know how do you look at the market landscape what are people you know still getting wrong yeah I think that I don't think that we actually talked that much more or less about competitors in the keynote there was a slide that had a color chart that may have been the only difference but you know for us it's always about you you could spend so much your time trying to look at what others are doing and wondering what they're gonna do the reality is if you don't stay focused on your customers and what they actually care about you know you're wasting your time about mobile and business years ago Alexa for business is a new thing voice we heard from Berner today it's a new interface so we were talking on the cube it's the first time we're kind of talking about this constant maybe we're the first ones to say it so we'll just say it voice first strategy mobile first created a massive wealth creation iPhone new kinds of application development voice has that same feel voice first interface could spawn massive innovation yeah what's your view their reaction what do you guys talk about internally at Amazon in terms of a how voice will take advantage of all your scale yeah well I strongly agree with what you heard Verner communicate in the in his keynote today which is just you know when we first had phones that had apps and you could do all kinds of things by tapping on the phone like that was revolutionary but then when you experienced a voice app it makes tapping on your phone so circa 2010 and so I think that the world will have a huge amount of voice applications it's gonna be people's preference and in part because it's just a more natural expression than actually tapping and trying to click and type things and so we we had so many customers almost a good chunk of our enterprise meetings that we have throughout the year one of the things customers want to talk about is how can I actually be involved in using Alexa how can I build skills for Alexa and then over the last few months that conversation has started to turn to hey you thinking about making Alexa more useful inside of businesses and for work and so there's so much applicability I think that voice first it's gonna have the same kind of impact or more than the mobile trend or I think it has a chance to have as big an impact I mean all the devices have to continue to evolve and you can see that at Amazon we're continuing to build all kinds of diverse devices but I think voice is gonna be a major mode of how people interact with handi 42,000 people I don't know how you top it congratulations on all your success and appreciate the growth and you've done with the company congratulate breaking chicken wing contest to Tonka yeah we said a Guinness I what is that about come on tell us about this door well I Tatanka is a buffalo wing eating club that we started in Seattle back in 1997 and we go for wings we used to go every Tuesday night for wings and we have membership standards you can become a regular member if you need 10 wings with five pasty wings a pasty wing is you know when the wing sauce sits the room temperature and it kind of congeals it gets Spacey so it's five wings wrapped in that pays platinum membership is 25 wings plus five pasties then we started having eating contests and we call it a tonka Bowl and so when we start a reinvent we very much wanted to have a conference that had a lot of interesting fun quirky events and one of the ideas we had was we said well let's try an eating contest and the first year we tried it we did it a lunchtime down in the basement and nobody wanted to have an eating contest at one o'clock in the afternoon in the middle of rain BAM so then we moved it to Lagasse Stadium here in the Venetian and people started coming so this year we had two groups of about a hundred each one at Lagasse won at the MGM and they they did a 30-minute round and then the top five wing eaters in each venue came back to one place for a second round and the winner apparently ate a cumulative total of 59 wings there were three thousand eight hundred and fifty-seven Wings consumed in the contest about as many features as Amazon has released since the first time event sounds like to continue the momentum and you're eating away at the competition congratulations Andy jazzy CEOs on Web Services the cube thanks for coming in man and I appreciate it guys thanks for being here appreciate it live coverage here from Las Vegas Amazon webster's reinvent annual conference 2017 s the cube I'm John Force to Minutemen be back with more live coverage after this short break [Music]
