  • ZDNet reports that genealogy company Ancestry is currently moving its entire infrastructure from a private datacenter to Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) Web Services.
  • Ancestry has 2.8M subscribers who have helped generate the 20B historical records and 75M daily search results. All of that activity takes up space, and Ancestry already has 6 petabytes of pure data on AWS with 550 databases plus nearly as many services awaiting the move.
  • The platform has some high profile “all-in” clients that have the entire infrastructure so Ancestry is joining the likes of Intuit (NASDAQ:INTU), Zillow, and Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX).
