Innovating in the Cloud

INNOVATION IS HARD

« If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses. »

– Henry Ford

EXPERIMENT FREQUENTLY#1

« Want to increase innovation? Lower the cost of failure »

CASE STUDY

“…AWS  seemed  to  be  the  best  solution  available  to  allow  a  small,  independent  company  to  rapidly  develop  and  test  a  completely  new  infrastructure,  

and  host  it.

 We  also  loved  the  flexibility  that  AWS  allowed  us,  when  spinning  up  smaller  test  environments,  for  

beta  trials,  QA,  localization,  and  during  development.  The  low  initial  cost  was  also  crucial.”

Alex  Evans,  CTO
