- QUOTE: Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a collection of digital infrastructure services that developers can leverage when developing their applications. The services include computing, storage, database, and application synchronization(messaging and queuing). AWS uses a pay-as-you-go service model. You are charged only for the services that you — or your applications — use.
