QUESTION

How do you handle high-throughput event data in BYOC, like usage metering at millions of events per second?

ANSWER

Aggregate in the customer's cloud — that's the whole point of BYOC. You don't ship raw events across cloud boundaries. The metering and aggregation services deploy into the customer's VPC and only summarized data crosses back.
