Case Summary: Netflix on AWS Customer Success Story

Netflix, a leading global streaming service, successfully migrated its entire


infrastructure to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to enhance its scalability,
reliability, and global reach. Before the move, Netflix faced challenges managing
its own data centers, struggling with infrastructure maintenance, scaling, and
service reliability. As the company's user base grew worldwide, maintaining
continuous high-quality streaming became increasingly complex.

By leveraging AWS’s cloud infrastructure, Netflix gained the ability to scale


dynamically, addressing peaks in demand during major content releases. The
migration also allowed Netflix to deliver content to a global audience more
efficiently using AWS’s content delivery networks (CDNs), which reduced
latency and improved streaming quality.
AWS’s infrastructure provided Netflix with high availability and fault tolerance,
reducing downtime and service disruptions. Additionally, Netflix could focus more
on innovation and faster deployment of new features without worrying about
hardware limitations. By transitioning to the cloud, Netflix improved its operational
efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and ability to innovate while continuing to expand
its market presence worldwide.

Case discussion/review questions:

 based on the Netflix on AWS Customer Success Story video and text:

1. What are the key benefits Netflix gained by migrating its


infrastructure to AWS (Amazon Web Services)?
o Consider how cloud services like AWS helped Netflix scale its
operations, improve performance, and manage peak demand.

2. How did AWS contribute to Netflix's ability to innovate and deliver


content to a global audience?
o Discuss how the flexibility, storage, and global reach of AWS
allowed Netflix to expand its services and improve customer
experience worldwide.

3. What challenges did Netflix face before moving to AWS, and how did
the cloud infrastructure help overcome them?
o Reflect on the technical and operational problems Netflix
experienced and how AWS provided solutions in terms of reliability,
scalability, and cost-efficiency.’’
