What is AWS

AWS, or Amazon Web Service, is a cloud platform that offers several on-demand operations to help corporate companies scale and grow. It has become a giant component of Amazon’s business portfolio and is a frontrunner to other cloud computing platforms.

AWS is made from different cloud computing products and services. It provides servers, storage, networking, remote computing, email, mobile development, and security. It can be broken into three main products:

  1. EC2: Amazon’s virtual machine service
  2. Glacier: a low-cost cloud storage service
  3. S3: Amazon’s storage system

Solutions Provided by AWS

Amazon Web Services offers a broad set of global cloud-based solutions like compute, storage, databases, analytics, networking, mobile, developer tools, management tools, IoT, security, and enterprise applications. These services help organizations move faster, produce lower costs, and provide scalability.

Organizations of every industry and size can run many different use cases on AWS.

Storage and Backup

AWS offers multiple types of storage to choose from and is easily accessible as well. It can be used for storage and file indexing as well as running critical business applications.

Websites

Using AWS, businesses can host their websites, similar to other web applications.

Gaming

AWS makes it easy to provide the best online gaming experience to gamers around the world. 

Mobile, Web, and Social Applications

AWS has the capability to launch and scale mobile, e-commerce, and SaaS applications. With API-driven code, AWS can enable companies to build uncompromisingly scalable applications without requiring any OS and other systems.
