    Hello @AWSSupport, is there any problem with EBS subsystem in us-east-2 (Ohio region)? Cannot resize volume (ending with internal error, same for console and CloudFormation), new volume is created but stuck in "Attaching" to the EC2. Thanks for check

    AMAZON AWS PAYS $127K/MO FOR CLOUD COMPUTING. SERGEY BOUGHT CHEAP SERVER RACK + CLAUDE AI. MAKES $318K Pause at 0:11 — rack with 40+ servers. Every indicator glows green. This is local computing. Zero latency. Zero cloud bills. Sergey, 35, Ukraine. Was AWS architect, $7,200/month. Understands: companies pay Amazon millions, but they can do same calculations locally. Bought used server rack for $4,800. Installed Claude AI for local processing. 78 companies pay $4,077/month each instead of $12K on AWS. Amazon offered $4,200,000. Sergey said: "You profit from dependency. I profit from freedom." Why — in video.

    The Missing Primitive for Autonomous AI: Bounded Agent Payments 💳🤖 For the past two years, autonomous agent loops (like @OpenClaw, Hermes, or custom agent harnesses) have been missing a critical infrastructure piece: the ability to transact on demand without a human in the loop. When an agent hits a paywalled research endpoint, a paid search API, or an MCP server mid-execution, the entire loop freezes. Up until now, your options were: 1. Hardcode expensive subscription API keys upfront. 2. Freeze execution and wait for a human to manually pay. @awscloud and the OpenClaw Foundation just published a blueprint solving this via Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Payments and the ⁠#x402⁠ protocol. Here is how it works, why it matters, and the primary architecture use cases:

    @awscloud hey, got a simple question When your moderation refuses to post a review of a book, can you do everyone a favor and instead of saying "one of these things" Say "here is the specific part that violates our guidelines. Pls fix it" It would be, so much more helpful

    Self hosting your email server is something that Is very tricky and I still can't grasp till today. The craziest part is not the setup but managing the email server reputation. I rather pay @Cloudflare or @awscloud.

    Opened 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!

    Unfortunately although they appear to be awesome people BrambleCFD is turning out to not be that hot. The main problem is the relationships/what they do of all the different settings is ridiculously opaque. There is no documentation. Their solution is to try to explain things in a video call, and if you need help, you ask for it, which it takes a week or more to get any kind of answer from an actual human, not because they are doing anything wrong but that's just not a good system. It's a long long way from the useability of simscale. I did however uncover an option that might be reasonably good, which is a virtual machine that I pay for the core-hours on. In many ways this is better. I can work directly with openFOAM and one of the front ends on a high powered linux computer with hundreds of gigs of ram and 96 high powered cores, and still only pay for what I use, theoretically. The openFOAM foundation has a system worked out ad directly offers the service, unfortunately they in turn use the amazon AWS or the microsoft Azure system, but what can you do. There are other companies that do similar things, but they probably aren't as well done as the one from the actual foundation. I think I'll try that one first. Having an AI in a harness on the machine is probably going to be indispensable, but I'll be using it primarily as a learning tool rather than asking it to do everything for me. I have been able to set up CowAgent, which is kind of basic but seems to work ok, with DeepSeek. A "harness" allows the AI to run commands on your computer and read the output automatically, as well as the other things web chat stuff can do. Secondly, it can store information in files and run the AI in a loop, doing many inferences one after the other, thus getting far more done than a web chat can (actually they might do something similar now IDK but they don't seem to).

    Hey @AWSSupport, Our Case 178452910500907 is still not resolved, and we've been left waiting without any meaningful update. Because of this, we're also unable to apply for AWS Activate, which is directly impacting our business operations and slowing down our workflow. This delay is becoming unacceptable. Please look into this urgently and help resolve it as soon as possible.

    Day 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.
