What is AWS primarily used for?

AWS (Amazon Web Services) is primarily used for cloud computing, hosting, data storage, and scalable infrastructure solutions. It provides businesses with on-demand computing power, database storage, and AI/ML tools. Companies of all sizes use AWS for website hosting, application deployment, machine learning, big data processing, and disaster recovery.

Startups and enterprises benefit from AWS’s pay-as-you-go model, which eliminates upfront costs while offering services like EC2 (virtual servers), S3 (cloud storage), RDS (managed databases), and Lambda (serverless computing).

Key takeaways:

AWS is used for scalable cloud computing and storage.
EC2 enables virtual machine hosting, while S3 provides object storage.
AWS supports AI, machine learning, and analytics.
Businesses use AWS for SaaS applications, gaming, and disaster recovery.
