Amazon Web Services — AWS

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world's largest cloud infrastructure and platform provider, offering compute, storage, networking, security, and AI/ML services used broadly across aviation for IT infrastructure, data platforms, and digital transformation. Headquartered in Seattle, Washington, AWS serves airlines, OEMs, and MRO providers as a foundational cloud layer for their applications.

Amazon Web Services is Amazon's cloud computing division, providing compute, storage, networking, database, security and AI/ML services. Aviation and aerospace companies use AWS as general IT infrastructure for hosting applications, data platforms and analytics workloads, and AWS runs an Aerospace and Satellite business unit that packages reference architectures and partner solutions for the sector. AWS does not sell an aviation specific product such as an M&E, MRO or flight operations system; those applications come from independent software vendors that run on AWS. Published aerospace customers include Boom Supersonic, Hermeus, Axiom Space and Swoop Aero. Pricing is consumption based and self serve, with enterprise agreements available for large accounts.
