Introduction to AWS

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a comprehensive and widely-used cloud computing platform provided by Amazon. Launched in 2006, AWS offers a vast array of computing resources and services that enable individuals and organizations to build, deploy, and manage applications and services through a global network of data centers.

AWS provides a scalable and flexible infrastructure, allowing users to access computing power, storage, databases, machine learning, analytics, and more on a pay-as-you-go basis. This eliminates the need for organizations to invest in and maintain their own physical hardware, and it enables them to quickly scale resources up or down based on demand.
