The AWS platform was launched on 7/2002. In its early stages, the platform consisted of only a few disparate tools and services. In late 2003, the AWS concept has presented a paper describing a vision for Amazon’s retail computing infrastructure that was completely standardized, completely automated, and would rely extensively on web services for services such as storage and would draw on internal work already underway. They mentioned the possibility of selling access to virtual servers as a service, proposing the company could generate revenue from the new infrastructure investment. On 11/2004, the first AWS service was launched for public usage: Simple Queue Service (SQS).

Amazon Web Services was officially re-launched on 14/03/2006, combining the three initial service offerings of Amazon S3 cloud storage, SQS, and EC2. The AWS platform finally provided an integrated suite of core online services to other developers, websites, client-side applications, and companies.

At the time, Amazon S3 helps free developers from worrying about where they will store data, whether it will be safe and secure if it will be available when they need it, the costs associated with server maintenance, or whether they have enough storage available. Amazon S3 enables developers to focus on innovating with data rather than figuring out how to store it.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a subsidiary of Amazon that provides on-demand cloud computing platforms and APIs to individuals, companies, and governments on a metered pay-as-you-go basis. In aggregate, these cloud computing web services offer a set of primitive abstract technical infrastructure and distributed computing building blocks and tools. One of these services is Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), which allows users to have a virtual cluster of computers at their disposal, available all the time, through the Internet. AWS’s version of virtual computers emulates most of the attributes of a real computer, including hardware central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) for processing; local/RAM; hard-disk/SSD storage; a choice of operating systems; networking; and pre-loaded application software such as web servers, databases, and customer relationship management (CRM).

The AWS technology is implemented at server farms throughout the world and maintained by the Amazon subsidiary.
Fees are based on a combination of usage, the hardware/OS/software/networking features chosen by the subscriber, required availability, redundancy, security, and service options. Subscribers can pay for a single virtual AWS computer, a dedicated physical computer, or clusters of either. As part of the subscription agreement, Amazon provides security for subscribers’ systems.
