Hundreds of thousands of customers use Amazon Web Services to build their businesses. In particular, this platform provides the flexibility to develop an application exactly the way you need it, regardless of its future purpose or industry. You'll save time, money, and the hassle of managing your own infrastructure, without compromising on scalability, security, or reliability.
Product description
Cloud computing is a style of providing IT equipment (servers, storage, databases, networks, software and other specialized tools) as a service over the Internet, where you pay only for what you consume.
A cloud platform can give you virtually instant access to flexible, low-cost IT resources, whether you're providing a photo-sharing app to millions of users or need to support key IT or communications operations in your business. With cloud services, you don't have to buy expensive IT equipment and spend a lot of time and money setting it up and managing it. Instead, you can purchase exactly the amount and type of technology you need at the time for your latest idea, almost "on demand". Easily and online.
Features
Pay for real usage:
Before you spend huge sums on state-of-the-art data centers and servers without knowing exactly how you'll use them, cloud computing lets you pay only for the computing power you actually need.
Greater speed and flexibility:
In cloud computing, you're just a few clicks away from having resources available to your developers in minutes, not weeks. The result is a dramatic increase in flexibility for your entire company, as costs and time for testing and development are significantly reduced.
No Inaccurate Estimates:
Eliminate inaccurate estimates of your infrastructure's required capacity that normally precede application deployment. Usually, you are left with a lot of unused resources or, conversely, you have to deal with insufficient computing capacity. With cloud computing, you don't have to deal with these problems. You only use what you need, including scalability - even for just a few minutes, for example, if you want.
Economies of scale:
With cloud computing, you achieve significantly lower variable costs than if you were to provide the computing power yourself. Cloud service providers (like AWS) can offer them more cheaply by aggregating a huge number of customers in one place, reducing their expenses and thus the cost of services.
No spending on data center operations and management:
Focus on projects that make your company more competitive, not infrastructure. Cloud computing allows you to focus on your own customers instead of worrying about moving and plugging in hardware.
Conquering global markets:
Deploying apps in regions around the world has never been easier. In a few clicks, simply and at minimal cost, you'll provide your customers with less latency and a better user experience.
