Why AWS?
The key reasons for using AWS are its scalability, adaptability, security, and reliability. Using AWS also enables vWork to be more agile, and innovate faster.
Using AWS tools, Auto Scaling, and Elastic Load Balancing, we can scale up or down based on demand. Backed by Amazon’s massive infrastructure, we have access to compute and storage resources as we need them.
While there are a growing number of cloud service providers, Amazon is the overwhelming market share leader. As of the first quarter of 2021, one independent analyst reports AWS has over a third of the market at 32.4%. In 2021, AWS was named as a Leader for the 11th Consecutive Year in 2021 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud Infrastructure & Platform Services (CIPS).1
