Amazon Web Services

Availability: UCOP

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s leading cloud platform, offering on-demand infrastructure and services through a flexible, pay-as-you-go model. AWS empowers organizations to innovate faster, scale efficiently, and reduce the risks and costs associated with owning and maintaining physical infrastructure.

With services spanning compute, storage, networking, databases, analytics, containers, and artificial intelligence, AWS helps organizations modernize technology, deliver reliable applications, and respond to demand—whether for day-to-day operations or during peak workloads.

AWS is trusted globally for its security, resilience, scalability, and cost efficiency, enabling teams to focus on delivering business value rather than managing infrastructure.

Platform Capabilities

  • Global Infrastructure – Built on a multi-region, multi-Availability Zone design for fault tolerance, low latency, and high availability.
  • Service Portfolio – Comprehensive coverage across core infrastructure (compute, storage, networking, databases) as well as advanced capabilities such as analytics, artificial intelligence, and high-performance computing.
  • Security & Compliance – Enterprise-grade security with encryption, identity and access controls, monitoring, and alignment to industry standards such as SOC, ISO, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and FedRAMP.
  • Operational Excellence – Services managed by Digital Innovation and Technology (DIT) follow cloud architecture best practices with an emphasis on security, compliance, cost optimization, and resilience.
  • Scalability & Flexibility – Elastic resource provisioning to seamlessly adapt to workload changes, supporting both traditional enterprise applications and modern cloud-native architectures.
