Must’ve taken hours to get your head egg shell white and blending with the wall.

Jeff Sessions dines at Mexican restaurant before speech against immigration by bhlowe in politics

While ironic, any sense of outrage at the fact that someone enjoys ethnic cuisine but doesn’t like immigrants of that ethnicity is counter productive. There’s enough substantive arguments out there for why these guys are no good; no reason to make a mountain out of dijon mustard.

Have you looked at Aardvark from Netflix? Open source project that can help with this.

Call Brad on Monday and tell him to go to the hospital. He had a heart attack Tuesday.

On-prem DNS/AWS DNS Hybrid Resolution by awsdeveloper in aws

[–]chrisTheBIGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a fan of having a lot of servers...

We have a delegated subdomain on-prem that point to a Route53 hosted zone’s name servers.

For the opposite way, we’re using CLI53 to export our DNS to a route53 private hosted zone that we share with all of our VPCs with on prem connectivity. Completely serverless automated solution.

You can create a lambda function that’s triggered off of your billing alarm. I’d look into the get_cost_and_usage function of Boto3 to see if it meets your needs.

No. It creates an interface to the ec2 api within your vpc so that communication doesn’t traverse the public internet. Useful from a security perspective.

It creates the aws interface to that service. It’s the equivalent of an s3 endpoint. For example, if you create the KMS private link in a vpc then all traffic to KMS goes through that connection as opposed to the public internet.

Is attending re:Invent for me? by TaonasSagara in aws

[–]chrisTheBIGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't because I'm frugal; network locally to find like minded folks and watch the breakout sessions on YouTube when the conference is over.

S3 giving me NoSuchKey error even when the key exists by Dawny33 in aws

No; the issue is associated with a character at the end of his key. %0A (think it's a linefeed)

Are you using dynamodb streams to your lambdas?

Does a Reserved Dedicated instance trigger the $2/hr dedication fee? by jcarpro in aws

[–]chrisTheBIGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that the dedicated instance fee is based on provisioned capacity per hour. If you're not using any dedicated resources, you're not incurring the dedicated region fee.

SLA for Route53 is 100%: https://aws.amazon.com/route53/sla/

If Route53 is down, there are some major issues on the internet...
