Scalable and high-performance
Using AWS tools, Auto Scaling, and Elastic Load Balancing, your application can scale up or down based on demand. Backed by Amazon’s massive infrastructure, you have access to compute and storage resources when you need them.
Cost-Effective
You pay only for the compute power, storage, and other resources you use, with no long-term contracts or up-front commitments. For more information on comparing the costs of other hosting alternatives with AWS, see the AWS Economics Center.
Reliable
With AWS, you take advantage of a scalable, reliable, and secure global computing infrastructure, the virtual backbone of Amazon.com’s multi-billion dollar online business that has been honed for over a decade.
Secure
AWS utilises an end-to-end approach to secure and harden our infrastructure, including physical, operational, and software measures. For more information, see the AWS Security Center.
Industry Leaders
You're in the best hands possible. AWS is easily the biggest web host on the internet with customers such as BMW Group, Coca Cola, Netflix, Pinterest, Salesforce, NASA, Toyota, Blackboard, Pearson, Oxford, Experian, Goldman Sachs, and many (many) more. I have personally used AWS in my biggest client sites and I have no troubles putting my name to them.
Compliant
Inherit the most comprehensive compliance controls with AWS. AWS supports 143 security standards and compliance certifications, including PCI-DSS, HIPAA/HITECH, FedRAMP, GDPR, FIPS 140-2, and NIST 800-171, helping customers satisfy compliance requirements around the globe.
