What is AWS (Amazon Web Services)?

AWS is Amazon’s comprehensive cloud computing platform offering a vast range of services including compute, storage, databases, analytics, and AI. It’s the market leader in cloud infrastructure.

Why AWS matters for Australian businesses

Cloud computing has become the backbone of modern business IT, offering flexibility, scalability, and cost efficiency that on-premises infrastructure cannot match. For Australian businesses, understanding cloud terminology helps you make informed decisions about which services to adopt and how to optimise your cloud spend.

For small and medium businesses in particular, aws plays a key role in maintaining a secure, efficient, and resilient IT environment. Whether you are reviewing your current setup or planning improvements, understanding aws will help you have more informed conversations with your IT provider and make better decisions for your business.
