  • Good job, Colin.

    I see you are following the Dyna53 [1] steps ;) What a school of thought you have sparked, Corey!

  • > If the same record is changed in the file system and in Route 53 at the same time, we aim for last-write-wins. This is not strictly possible, since Route 53 does not expose modification timestamps on records

    Except route 53 provides a fully ACID transactional API you can build your own locks with!

  • Route53 makes a great, simple, HA key-value store for some use cases. I've used it in GitHub Actions when nothing else was easily available to store values and put a little post together explaining how a while back. For many things, there isn't a reason for more complexity.

  • At first I thought this was a general purpose file system over R53, ala Corey Quinn. But my, what a gorgeously terrible idea. Well done.
