Cloud Hosting

Amazon Web Services has been known for its rapid pace of innovation in cloud computing, and this year is no different.

Its added new AWS tools and services ranging from 6th-generation Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances, to Amazon Honeycode, which allows customers to build mobile and web applications without writing programming code, to new capabilities for its Amazon Connect customer contact solution.

Other releases bolstering its cloud portfolio so far in 2020 are the AWS Snowcone portable edge device, the Amazon Interactive Video Service (IVS) live streaming solution, AWS IoT SiteWise and Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) on its hybrid AWS Outposts cloud offering.

As AWS CEO Andy Jassy told CRN last year, We just have a lot more capability than anybody else, in part, because we started six years earlier, but also in part just because were iterating at a faster clip than anybody.

AWS offers more than 175 fully featured services for compute, storage, databases, networking, analytics, robotics, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence, internet of things (IoT), mobile, security, hybrid cloud, virtual and augmented reality, media, and application development, deployment and management.
