Founded in 2006, Amazon Web Services was created as parent company Amazon learned that the massive IT infrastructure it required around holidays and other peak shopping times was vastly underutilized for most of the year. So AWS was formed to offer that untapped compute, storage and networking expertise and capability to other companies. Definitely the category creator and reigning king in public-cloud infrastructure, AWS has built a vast range of cloud-computing services all across the infrastructure and platform categories. Its early successes, its relentless commitment to ongoing innovation, its long-held practice of regularly lowering prices, and its parent company’s worldwide renown have all combined to make AWS one of the world’s best-known and most-successful cloud-computing companies. It debuted at #1 on the Cloud Wars Top 10, but was pushed out of that top spot a couple of years ago by Microsoft. AWS has been #2 on the Cloud Wars Top 10 for the past two years.
