AWS
(Amazon Web Services)
Amazon’s online platform for renting computing power, storage, databases and other technology services
What's it for?
Lets organisations rent computing, storage and other technology from Amazon instead of running everything themselves.
For example…
A retailer runs its website, databases and file storage on AWS instead of owning the physical servers
A startup adds extra AWS computing capacity for a launch week and scales it back afterwards.
Think of it like…
AWS is the broadest public cloud menu—compute, storage, databases, and hundreds of niche services
