Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a widely adopted cloud platform for building distributed, global-scale applications. Shifting on-premise workloads to AWS enables organizations to leverage a comprehensive suite of services to build more resilient, cost-effective applications. Teams can use fully managed services to optimize their existing resources and restructure their applications to isolate workloads into independent microservices with containers. Additionally, organizations can use the cloud to build serverless applications to decrease reliance on physical servers, further reducing operational costs.
