Episode notes

David Bianculli: We're going to talk about a completely different type of business today than we talked about last time. Fundrise is the largest private investment platform in the world for retail investors. You can finally, finally buy acquired merch on the internet that is available at acquired.fm slash store or click the link in the show notes. After you finish this episode, come discuss it with David and I, and 13,000 other smart members of the acquired Slack community.

So, how DID an online book retailer end up building the infrastructure layer that powers the entire internet? (Or at least 39% of it, per latest market share data.) While many myths, legends, and some downright falsehoods exist, the real answer to that question deserves a full Acquired episode of its very own. So here it is: the story of Amazon Web Services. Who’s got the truth? Tune in and find out. :)
