Previously, I blogged about the Pros & Cons of the Pay Amazon Web services.
Basically, the biggest con was a lack of service level agreement (SLA). "How can a third party seriously build a profitable application or service on top of something that has no uptime guarantee or refund consequence for severe outages?"
I am now happy to have learned, that Amazon (as of October 1st, 2007) does provide service level agreements for their S3 storage service, which was designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers.
A big pat on the back for Jeff Bezos. Web companies can now leverage Amazon's offerings with piece of mind.
Heck, it feels good to sleep at night.
