As per an article on TechCrunch, AWS is so far ahead of the rest that no-one can seriously challenge its leadership in the short term. For the most part, AWS continues to grow its market share and add new functionality and services at such a rapid rate that even companies as well-heeled and well-positioned as Microsoft and Google will be hard-pressed to make a significant dent in that market share lead for some time to come.

So it’s clear that there are many organizations that are embracing Amazon Web Services (AWS) for all the benefits it has to offer. If we were to list these benefits (and especially in comparison with others), these are improved flexibility and agility, and reduced costs. Additionally, AWS helps organizations to provision for storage, network and database in no time.
