About Aldebaran Robotics
Founded in 2005 by Bruno Maisonnier
• E-store: OS & app downloads, goodies
• AskNao: website for the autism community
• Developer community website
• Fleet management & post-sale services
• 3rd party service providers (voice recognition, music, etc)
• Supply chain, manufacturing, etc.
Cute robots need infrastructure too
• Multiple projects, multiple technologies • Robots in many territories • Partners & suppliers across the globe • High-availability mandatory
• Zero reference point: totally new business • No datacenter skills in the team • Budget? Planning? Sizing? Scaling? Nope J • Just rush to get things done!
To spice things up
• Started to experiment with IAAS in late 2012 (EC2, S3)
• Solution Architects convinced us PAAS was the way to go – « Automatic » best practices on everything J – RDS, ELB, Availability Zones – VPC (private / public subnets), security groups
• Deep integration between AWS and our web apps – S3, CloudFront, IAM, SES – Cloudwatch, Elastic BeansTalk, auto-scaling
• Today: 2 regions (EU & APAC), 5 VPC, 150 EC2, 20 ELB
Our story with AWS
• Aldebaran is just getting started • We’re going to scale and expand globally: AWS will be a key
partner and we couldn’t be happier with our collaboration
• PS: many open positions in R&D J Please get in touch at [email protected]
