AWS Ecosystem (Amazon Web Services)

Amazon Web Services brings together cloud services rather than offering a single application. Teams can rent computing capacity through EC2 and use managed relational databases through RDS, then combine those services with other AWS capabilities to build an application. The wider ecosystem also includes machine-learning services and serverless options, allowing different parts of a system to use different operating models. Its appeal is the range of infrastructure choices available within one provider, from a small deployment to a distributed service.

That freedom creates work as well as opportunity: teams must choose an architecture and control access to resources. Usage-based charges can rise when resources run longer or consume more than expected. AWS suits organizations prepared to manage those choices and monitor spending as their applications grow.
