Amazon Web Services

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a collection of remote computing services, also called web services, make up a cloud computing platform offered by Amazon.com.

Description

These services operate from eleven geographical regions across the world.

The most central and well-known of these services include Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud and Amazon S3.

Amazon markets these products as a service to provide large computing-capacity more quickly and more cheaply than a client company building an actual physical server farm.
