What is AWS?
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a cloud computing platform provided by Amazon. It offers a wide range of services that allow individuals and businesses to build and run applications and services in the cloud. AWS provides a highly scalable, reliable, and cost-effective infrastructure that allows organizations to quickly adapt to changing business requirements.
AWS provides various services such as compute, storage, database, analytics, machine learning, networking, and more. These services are designed to help organizations build and run their applications and services more efficiently and securely. AWS also provides a range of management and monitoring tools that allow users to manage their applications and services more effectively.
One of the key benefits of using AWS is its flexibility. AWS allows organizations to choose the services they need and only pay for what they use. This makes it easy to scale up or down depending on the organization's needs, without having to worry about upfront costs or long-term commitments.
AWS is also known for its security and compliance capabilities. AWS provides a wide range of security and compliance features that allow organizations to secure their applications and data in the cloud. AWS complies with a range of industry standards and regulations, including HIPAA, PCI DSS, and SOC 2.
