IANAL,but naming your product S2 and mentioning in the intro that AWS S3 is the tech you are enhancing is probably looking for a branding/copyright claim from Amazon. Same vertical & definitely will cause consumer confusion. I'm sure you've done the research about whether a trademark has been registered. https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=98324800&caseSearchType=U...

Fun fact: S2 and EC2 sound exactly the same in Spanish - both are "ese dos". Add that to EC2 and S3 already being confusing to tell apart by ear

Only for you lot of Thouth-american thpanish thpeakerth.

Thats short term thinking. you need to leapfrog everybody and go s∞

That’s actually a pretty cool name if you pronounce the first letter the letter sound rather than as an initial: Sinfinity

My aging eyes just pronounced it "sooooo"

Doesn't AWS charge $0.01 intra region and $0.02 between regions, even without setting up private links? Can't you pass part of those savings (compared to the $0.05-$0.09 of egress) on? Or is it too difficult to detect if the remote IP qualifies?

(Founder) Unfortunately, if you access over a public IP, it is internet egress. Even if the client is in the same AWS cloud region. PrivateLink is the only option.

Peering is an option as well but it's a whole different ballgame of complexities to set up vs. private link

S2 is, in my opinion, the sweet spot of PRS's lineup.

Related to an old comment of yours:

> I also kind of strongly dislike HtDP.

I'm researching programming pedagogy and I'm curious about your thoughts on this.
