AWS has become the new normal as companies of every size have realized the benefits of the cloud.
A recent whitepaper by IDC shows the customers that migrate to AWS can experience 51% reduced costs of operations, 62% increased IT staff productivity, and 94% reductions in downtime.
In the following article we will consider what the benefits of using AWS are:
Easy to use
It is designed to quickly and securely host your applications – whether an existing application or a new SaaS-based application.
Flexible
It enables you to select the operating system, programming language, web application platform, database, and other needed services. With it, you receive a virtual environment that lets you load the software and services your application requires. This eases the migration process for existing applications while preserving options for building new solutions.
Cost-Effective
You pay only for the compute power, storage, and other resources you use, with no long-term contracts or up-front commitments. For more information on comparing the costs of other hosting alternatives with AWS.
Reliable
With AWS, you take advantage of a scalable, reliable, and secure global computing infrastructure, the virtual backbone of Amazon.com’s multi-billion dollar online business that has been honed for over a decade.
Scalable and high-performance
Using tools, Auto Scaling, and Elastic Load Balancing, your application can scale up or down based on demand. Backed by Amazon’s massive infrastructure, you have access to compute and storage resources when you need them.
Secure.
It utilizes an end-to-end approach to secure and harden our infrastructure, including physical, operational, and software measures.
Conclusion
So, we recommend that you go to AWS when you need a quick, reliable, scalable, and secure cloud host for your application.
