Wow, coincidentally I posted GlassBD (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42164058) a couple of days ago. Making S3 strongly consistent is not trivial, so I'm curious about how you achieved this.

If the caching layer can return success before writing through to s3, it means you built a strongly consistent distributed in memory database.

Or, the consistency guarantee is actually less, or data is partitioned and cannot be quickly shared across clients.

I'm really curious to understand how this was implemented.
