About Corey QuinnOver the course of my career, I’ve worn many different hats in the tech world: systems administrator, systems engineer, director of technical operations, and director of DevOps, to name a few. Today, I’m a cloud economist at The Duckbill Group, the author of the weekly Last Week in AWS newsletter, and the host of two podcasts: Screaming in the Cloud and, you guessed it, AWS Morning Brief, which you’re about to listen to.TranscriptCorey: This episode is sponsored in part by Catchpoint. Look, 80 percent of performance and availability issues don’t occur within your application code in your data center itself. It occurs well outside those boundaries, so it’s difficult to understand what’s actually happening. What Catchpoint does is makes it easier for enterprises to detect, identify, and of course, validate how reachable their application is, and of course, how happy their users are. It helps you get visibility into reachability, availability, performance, reliability, and of course, absorbency, because we’ll throw that one in, too. And it’s used by a bunch of interesting companies you may have heard of, like, you know, Google, Verizon, Oracle—but don’t hold that against them—and many more.

Corey is still enjoying some wonderful family time with his new addition, so you're still stuck with me, Pete Cheslock. But I am not alone. I have been joined yet again, with my colleague, Jesse DeRose. Welcome back, Jesse.Jesse: Thank you for having me. I will continue to be here until Corey kicks me back off the podcast whenever he returns and figures out that I've locked him out of his office.Pete: We'll just change all the passwords and that'll just solve the problem.Jesse: Perfect.Pete: What we're talking about today is the “AWS Cost Anomaly Detection, Part Two: Electric Boogaloo.”Jesse: Ohh, Electric Boogaloo. I like that. Remind me what that's from. I feel like I've heard that before.Pete: Okay, so I actually went to go look it up because all I remembered was that there was, like, a movie from the past, “Something Two: Electric Boogaloo,” and I dove to the internet—also known as Wikipedia—and I found it it was a movie called Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo], which is a 1984 film. And it says it's a sequel to the 1984 breakdancing film Breakin’: Electric Boogaloo, which I thought was kind of interesting because I always thought of that joke ‘Electric Boogaloo’ was as related to the part two of something, but it turns out it's not. It's actually can be used for both part one and part two.Jesse: I feel like I'm a little disappointed, but now I also have a breakdancing movie from the ’80s to go watch after this podcast.Pete: Absolutely. If this does not get added to your Netflix list, I just—I don't even want to know you anymore.Jesse: [laughs].Pete: What's interesting, though, is that there was a sequel called Rappin’, which says, “Also known as Breakdance 3: Electric Boogalee.”Jesse: Okay, now I just feel like they're grasping at straws.Pete: I wonder if that was also a 1984 film. Like, if all of these came out in the same year. I haven't looked that deep yet.Jesse: I feel like that's a marketing ploy, that somebody literally just sat down and wrote all of these together at once, and then started making the films after the fact.Pete: Exactly. One last point here, because it's too good not to mention, was that it basically says that all these movies, or at least the later one, had an unconnected plot and different lead characters; only Ice-T featured in all three films, which then got me to think a sec—wait a second, Ice-T was in this movie? Why have I not watched this movie?Jesse: Yeah. This sounds like an immediate cult classic. I need to go watch this immediately after this podcast; you need to go watch this.Pete: Exactly. So, anyway, that's the short d
