The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Amazon Web Services began in 2006 from Amazon, Seattle. Jeff Bezos saw the need. They built cloud computing infrastructure. EC2 was their breakthrough. Companies could rent servers by the hour. No capital expense. No waiting. The model changed everything. AWS grew to dominate cloud markets worldwide. Today they serve millions of customers globally. They hold roughly one-third of cloud market share. Enterprises run their operations on AWS systems. It is one of 6649 brands tracked weekly.
