I am not aware about the details - can you elaborate?
Maybe the Two Pizza rule:
No team at Amazon should be larger than what two pizzas can feed (usually about 6 to 10 people).
The ‘design everything as a publicly accessible API’ directive seems to play to this as well. If all your data / services are available and must be documented then a lot of communication overhead can be eliminated.

I have always been amazed at that rule because it implies developers either do not like pizza or they happen to be on a diet.
