Quote of the day

We narrowed in on the Graviton2 family of processors since it offered a good balance between network and CPU performance.

We got excellent support from the AWS team in facilitating a smooth migration to Graviton.

We were able to achieve the best cost-performance by switching to a network columnar architecture leveraging Amazon S3 and Graviton.
