I think it’s bc a lot of ppl are complaining that the tyson v paul fight is slow to load and poor quality

It's pretty bad. I'm having to back out of the stream every few minutes. Maybe Netflix should stay in their lane.

And for the record, I'm watching on a hardwired Nvidia Shield with a 1 gig fiber connection with nothing else running.

It was a fucking ballsy move to advertise their Xmas NFL livestreaming during that trainwreck

Is it Netflix’s fault or AWS?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 5 months ago

Even if it is not their fault, what people see is that they provide bad quality service. Very low percentage ofthem will care to read details when Netflix publishes a post-mortem of an issue, assuming they even do.

Not on AWS anymore, I though.

that… is unlikely… they took 7 years to migrate TO AWS, and the last i heard they completed a massive migration to IPv6 on AWS in 2021… it’d take them a massive amount of engineering and time to migrate off AWS

also it’d be massive news… netflix is basically THE number 1 AWS “success” story

Yea, I thought maybe they migrated away from them too, but wasn’t sure.

I can't find anything online about them moving off of aws.

Years ago. It was a massive cost-cutting venture to repatriate their stuff.

We used to say "you ain't Netflix" to mean you didn't need all that infrastructure dutch rudder shit. Now since they repatriated their data it kinda means you can afford to pay the cloud tax instead of employing people and having control of your data.

It used to mean "you're not big enough." Now it means "you haven't figured it out yet."

If it's AWS fault, it's also their fault for choosing AWS.

Didn’t Netflix try a live event earlier this year that also couldn’t handle the number of viewers?
