Abstract

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform, offering over 200 fully featured services from data centers globally. This talk will give an overview of work at Amazon that uses automated reasoning to deliver provable guarantees for these products, and how we can scale verification to keep up with the rapidly growing number of features.
