Jacklyn Taylor (@Ronindrake2) reported@awscloud @AmazonHelp @amazon Yo, can any of yall explain why a review that gets flagged for "community guidelines" refuses to tell you what the issue is? Like yall's bot goes "it violates rules!" But cant tell me what part? It obviously had to note what the issue was...

kakafa.btc (@kakafa_btc) reported@AWSSupport Still NO resolution after 7 days! Case ID: 17849863000462 Account hold cleared days ago, but CloudFront is STILL locked due to a backend flag sync issue. @AWSSupport keeps passing the buck. Assign a supervisor to clear this flag NOW! @awscloud #AWS #CloudFront #AWSCloud

mail box (@mailbox28564784) reported@amazonIN @amazon @awscloud I am extremely disappointed with Amazon's customer service. Despite returning the product, I have neither received my ₹1,400 refund nor a replacement. Repeated follow-ups and social media complaints have not resolved my issue.l

Himanshu Singh (@hsnice16) reportedBeen using LLMs a lot to write code recently. Sometimes I learn a few new things, and sometimes it just confuses itself and me, maybe because there is no one right way to do things. Recently, while working on a pricing page for a new product we've been developing, a senior team member suggested that it would be better to extract it into a separate codebase and deploy the frontend separately. He would then route it through CloudFront under the same origin to avoid cross-origin issues when transferring credentials. I learned that using `*` for `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` doesn't work for credentialed CORS requests. But before all of this worked, I had extracted the pricing frontend into the same codebase, just in a new folder with the required files, and was trying to deploy it on the same infrastructure the rest of the application was using on @awscloud. It wasn't working because there were some issues between the build output and the CDK synthesis/deployment stages. Eventually, I extracted the code into a completely new repository and deployed it on @vercel.

OneTradeWex (@OneTradeWex) reported$CBRS is trying to challenge $NVDA indirectly, here’s how: While $NVDA focuses on incredibly small and powerful chips, $CBRS has built a massive, highly specialized AI scaling semiconductor. This greatly decreases the amount of cloud tokens needed to process a large language model, effectively saving AI companies millions of dollars in the long run. Think of $NVDA racks as an industrial kitchen and $CBRS chips as a microwave, when all you need to do is cook a hot pocket you want the microwave for efficiency. $CBRS announced that core revenue more than doubled year-over-year to $210 million in its Q2 earnings report while its cloud business nearly quadrupled. The company also raised its 2026 revenue guidance to between $880 million and $890 million. If $CBRS can successfully fulfill their contracts with @OpenAI and @awscloud on time and at scale we will see even more growth, if not them only having two primary customers will be their down fall. Looking at the technical setup we see $CBRS is coming down into its months long support channel. If it holds the $180-$160 level I see no reason for it not to bounce back to $215 to $230.

Payal (@payal_codes) reportedDay 1 : "How to Scale an App to 10 Million Users on AWS" If I have to design a system for 10 million users, I won't build everything on Day 1 because it will add unnecessary complexity and cost. I'll start simple with one application server and one database. As traffic grows, if the server starts reaching its CPU, memory, or storage limits, I'll first scale vertically by moving to a bigger instance. Once that is not enough, I'll separate the backend and database so both can scale independently. To avoid a single point of failure, I'll deploy the application across multiple Availability Zones and put a Load Balancer in front so if one server or AZ goes down, traffic is automatically routed to healthy servers. As the number of users keeps increasing, I'll make my application stateless by storing sessions in Redis. This allows me to add multiple application servers behind the Load Balancer and scale horizontally. If my database starts getting overloaded with reads, I'll use Redis to cache frequently accessed data and add read replicas to distribute read traffic. For static assets like images, CSS, and JavaScript, I'll store them in Amazon S3 and serve them through CloudFront so requests don't keep hitting my application servers. If traffic suddenly spikes during sales or events, I'll enable Auto Scaling with CloudWatch metrics so AWS automatically adds or removes servers based on demand. As the application becomes larger, I'll split the monolith into microservices. This allows each service, like authentication, payments, or notifications, to scale independently instead of scaling the entire application. If the database becomes the bottleneck, especially for write operations, I'll use sharding or federation depending on the data and business requirements. Finally, when users are spread across the world, I'll deploy the application in multiple AWS Regions to reduce latency and improve availability. My approach is always the same: find the bottleneck, solve that bottleneck, and only introduce more complexity when the current architecture can no longer handle the traffic.

Vinit Upadhyay (@vinitcodes) reported@AWSSupport @kirodotdev @awscloud I’ve already raised a case explaining the entire issue. Case ID: 178664512400070. Unfortunately, I still haven’t received any genuine help, which is really disappointing. I’m not the only one facing this issue-many others are experiencing the same problem. Please look into this.

Brandon S (@BSaarX) reported@Gabby_Hoffman @awscloud Next you will say let them eat cake. 2024 was about mortgage rates getting lower and affordability. Now we see it was about crypto, AI and pushing data centers. What a let down

BOB-DO-THEM (@osangesua) reportedThis is a blatant lie intended to mislead the electorate. The glitch synchronisation in the BVAS is the reason he won't effect the upgrade because if an upgrade is carried on the BVAS, the entire calibration of glitches will disappear and the fear that @awscloud may have disabled or blocked the application that allows them to manipulate the BVAS is the reason for this unprovoked lies

Dhanush N (@Dhanush_Nehru) reportedOpened a support portal ticket on AWS. For a week, I heard nothing. contacted @AWSSupport by direct message and the issue was resolved in a matter of days. Their team still responds to thousands of queries every day. That's how genuine support appears. Thank you AWS!

Carlos DP 🤖🇺🇸 (@carlosdponx) reported@MarwaEldiwiny They’re not hiding it’s a G1, it’s obviously a G1 and they don’t lie if asked. I don’t advertise explicitly my robots are built on G1 either, because it’s a distraction when marketing like this. The end user doesn’t care. It’s like if you sold a SaaS product and mentioned the servers run on Amazon AWS, it’s irrelevant to the user. Their tweets are marketing posts, not technical reports. Also idk what you mean by the G1 “having a lot of issues”. It’s the most reliable and mature humanoid platform you can actually buy today (and we have no data on reliability of closed platforms).

Hitesh Kumar Gupta (@iHiteshAgrawal) reported@kunalstwt @WeMakeDevs @awscloud Tried registering but the form needs a student email ID. My college doesn't issue one, which is common in tier 2 and 3 colleges. Happy to send university marksheets or college ID instead. Otherwise the online-for-all-India part misses the students who'd benefit most.

Harikrishna KP (@harikp2002) reported@AWSSupport Two days into migrating to AWS and both new accounts I created are locked out of every single service. S3, EC2, Lambda, DynamoDB, all of it. The accounts show as ACTIVE. Support confirmed it needs a manual fix from an internal team, then went quiet for 28 hours. Three open cases, one phone call, still completely blocked. Sitting on AWS credits I literally cannot spend. Do better please!
