And we’re super close on #AWS to the same milestone. Migrating off #Oracle to purpose built cloud-scale DBs for the AWS services I owned brought the same benefits - better speed, cost, latency & availability. Nothing to lose but the onerous licensing and audits #ByeFelicia https://t.co/NYTSUgCA2u

We just shut down the last Oracle database connected to Amazon’s consumer business and migrated 75 petabytes – from more than 100 teams – to AWS. Instead of saying “I have more urgent things to do,” teams worked with the long-term benefit in mind. https://t.co/PqXziuvscq

AmazonがOracle DB抜きでオペレーション出来るってそりゃそうだろうなとは思うけど、あの規模が本当にこうなると感慨深い。
