Big congratulations to Werner, who has been researching distributed systems at Cornell University for many years. He just announced that he has accepted what sounds like a fascinating job at Amazon.

After 10 exciting years at Cornell I have decided that it is finally time to ‘eat my own dog food’; I will now be able to bring my ideas about building scalable and robust systems into practice in one of the most challenging environments in the industry. At the same time I will be able to work at Amazon on building strong research relations with academia and other research labs.
