Description

　　Ever wondered how EC2 deploys software to one of the largest cloud fleets in the world? We are the EC2 Deployment team and we build the services responsible for safely deploying software to millions of EC2 hosts in 32 geographic regions across over a hundred availability zones. We do this by innovating on how to approach updating a fleet of our size and then turning those ideas into a highly available and scalable globally distributed system that provides the mechanisms to ensure the fleet is always up to date. Everything we do has to keep the safety of the EC2 fleet in mind as we are the last line of defense to limit the blast radius of failure modes that can impact customers like Netflix, NASA, Expedia, Snap, and Epic games.
