Self-study questions
Two strategic factors make developing a new Internet service cheap and quick – describe them.
Google and Facebook have APIs for developers wishing to build applications on top of their services and databases. Give examples of some of the capabilities they provide to developers.
Yelp uses Amazon’s Web services for their site. Read this case study:http://aws.amazon.com/solutions/case-studies/ and answer these questions:
• How much traffic does Yelp handle?• Briefly describe the Amazon services that Yelp uses.• What are the business advantages to Yelp in using Amazon’s Web
services?• Are there any business disadvantages?
