Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a cloud computing platform from Amazon that offers a broad range of on-demand services, including computing power, storage, databases, networking and machine learning. It enables organisations of all sizes to run applications and store data without needing to manage their own physical infrastructure.

 

Some of the key features of AWS include:

  • Compute: Provides scalable computing capacity through services such as Amazon EC2, AWS Lambda and container services.
  • Storage: Offers durable, secure and highly available storage options, including Amazon S3 and Amazon EBS.
  • Identity and access management: Uses AWS IAM to manage users, roles and permissions, giving fine-grained control over who can access which resources.
  • Security and compliance: Includes services such as AWS Security Hub, GuardDuty and AWS Config to detect threats, assess configurations and support compliance with industry frameworks.
  • Logging and auditing: Records account activity and API calls through AWS CloudTrail, providing a clear audit trail across cloud environments.

 

Overall, AWS helps organisations build and scale reliable, secure applications while maintaining visibility and control over their cloud environments through a comprehensive, pay-as-you-go cloud platform.
