Amazon Web Services (AWS) domain: aws.amazon.com
Amazon Web Services (AWS), a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc., offers a suite of cloud-computing services that make up an on-demand computing platform. These services operate from 14 geographical regions across the world. AWS has announced another 4 Regions (and 11 Availability Zones) in Canada, China, India, and the United Kingdom coming online throughout 2017. Each Region is wholly contained within a single country and all of its data and services stay within the designated Region. Each Region has multiple "Availability Zones", which are distinct data centers providing AWS services. Availability Zones are isolated from each other to prevent outages from spreading between Zones. Several services operate across Availability Zones (e.g., S3, DynamoDB) while others can be configured to replicate across Zones to spread demand and avoid downtime from failures. As of December 2014, Amazon Web Services operated an estimated 1.4 Million servers across 28 availability zones. The global network of AWS Edge locations consists of 54 points of presence worldwide, including locations in the United States, Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America (source: Wikipedia.org).
