I'm looking for examples of large websites that are hosted on Amazon EC2/S3/Cloudfront/etc.
I worked at a company where we ran a site that did 500k unique visitors per month on EC2 running 10 instances but that's still relatively small potatoes compared to some larger sites. I know smug mug and foursquare are also hosted on EC2. What other large websites are on EC2?
回答1:
Reddit uses EC2
回答2:
How large is 'large'? I know that heroku runs on EC2, and they do a pretty large amount of traffic.
回答3:
Netflix, DropBox, Zynga (maker of Farmville) are pretty big users of EC2

Instagram uses Amazon... at least their images are hosted on S3. Check out this link:

Also, I'm pretty sure Reddit moved away from Amazon Cloud after the most recent outage.
Here's a link to Amazon case studies that details some of their larger clients:

In the financial world Nasdaq OMX is a good example but virtually every bank uses EC2 for computational needs (not as a main system but highly used by both banks and hedge funds to run simulations).
