Twenty years ago, AWS launched S3 and changed how developers think about infrastructure forever. I don’t remember exactly where I was that day (see photo for clues πŸ˜‚), but I’ve spent the last 6 years working to make sure developers have the best possible experience building on AWS. Happy 20th, AWS!

What a journey it's been, from improving the AWS Console to taking on new challenges in our developer experience. The best part is working with talented folks who love solving challenges at-scale and asking Why questions (go read Andy's 2024 Shareholder Letter) - it is what makes AWS special.

The patent represents our team's work to simplify how users find and navigate cloud services, making complex environments more intuitive and accessible.

At AWS, we're constantly challenging ourselves to invent and reinvent on behalf of our customers. Special thanks to my team of co-inventors.
