Elements of Amazon's Day 1 Culture
Amazon's "Day 1" mentality is a culture and an operating model that puts
customers at the center of everything Amazon does. Putting "Day 1" into
practice relies on maintaining a long-term focus, obsessing over customers,
and bold innovation.
Innovate with Your Own 'Two-Pizza' Teams
AWS innovates quickly with the concept of the 'two-pizza team' – and
we'll show you the way. Start with a team small enough to feed with
two pizzas. Based on team constraints, small, scrappy teams make
better trade-offs and decisions. They innovate quickly and course
correct as needed to keep projects on track. (Skeptical? Test the math
yourself before you assign your next team. Try N(N-1)/2, where N is
the number of team members. Doubling team size from six to 12
members more than quadruples the number of communication links
and potential for delay.)
The result? Faster software development, especially when paired with
the torrent of new AWS services – from the DevOps Automated
Springboard to the enhanced CodeGuru Reviewer.
