Amazon Web Services is the cloud computing platform operated by Amazon, offering over 200 services spanning compute, storage, databases, networking, machine learning, and more, available on a pay-as-you-go basis. Launched in 2006, it's used by startups, enterprises, and government agencies worldwide to build and scale applications without owning physical data center infrastructure. AWS is the largest cloud provider by market share, competing with Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform.
