It was one of the first companies that used the model of pay-as-you-go cloud computing that was scalable as far as providing upgrades for additional storage, size and speed. AWS initially started using the internal infrastructure that their Amazon.com retail operations started on. The main benefit of cloud computing is that physical servers do not have to be purchased, they can be created and deployed almost instantly, and this produces results faster and at a lower cost due to Amazons huge amount of resources and users are only charged for usage. AWS provides a secure, highly reliable, scalable, infrastructure platform in the cloud that powers hundreds of thousands of businesses in 190 countries around the world. They have data centers spread across availability zones (AZs) in the U.S., Europe, Singapore, and Japan. According to Synergy Group AWS has a 34% share of cloud platform services; its top three competitors are Microsoft, Google, and IBM. AWS’s virtual systems emulate real computers including hardware (such as CPU, GPU, RAM, and storage space), operating systems, and networking functions.
