About Amazon

…get into cloud computing?

How did Amazon…

Over 10 years in the making

Enablement of sellers on Amazon

Internal need for scalable deployment environment

Early forays proved developers were hungry for more

AWS Mission

Enable businesses and

developers to use web

services* to build scalable,

sophisticated applications.

*What people now call “the cloud”

Not excess capacity!

Each day AWS adds the equivalent server

capacity to power Amazon when it was a

global, $5B enterprise
