you might think that in 2004, realnetworks would have had some process in place for standing up a production server, and maybe it did, but damned if my dev lead or anyone else on my team there knew what it was

I still remember at my cjs school c.2000 where examinations were still being done in basic/dos because “some industries are hold outs and haven’t upgraded to win2k, and probably won’t”. Some exams were done in os/2. it was pretty much a low point in my life.
lol at the excuse, the instructors just didn't want to teach new poo poo. also ibm gave them a deal on equipment without windows

I once saw someone serve a static website using Lambda functions and that sounds pretty ok (a series of S3 buckets with maybe some fancy routing) in reality it was lambda that was dynamically rendering all the html
i still don't understand, was it like CGI-Perl but running in lambda or am i missing something
