FAQ AWS (Amazon)

AWS is a cloud platform that provides compute power, storage, databases, networking, AI tools and hundreds of managed services. Companies use it to host applications, store data, run infrastructure and build scalable digital platforms.

Yes. Many European platforms offer high availability, redundant datacenters, scalable compute resources and enterprise-grade security. While they may have fewer services than AWS, they excel in transparency and compliance.
Important factors include datacenter location, scalability, pricing structure, managed services, API compatibility, security certifications and support quality.
Most major European cloud providers offer container orchestration (Kubernetes), object storage, load balancing, databases and automation tools — suitable for modern applications and cloud-native architectures.
