Build modern applications on AWS

Manage less. Build faster. Innovate more.

AWS—the best place to build modern applications

As organizations look to increase the pace of innovation and build new customer experiences, modernizing how you build and operate applications is key. From enterprise software controlling back-office operations to market-facing applications that become the main connection point with customers, applications are the driving force behind every successful organization.

Built with the latest technologies, modern applications are the solution for development organizations to innovate faster, improve performance, security, and reliability, all while lowering their total cost of ownership.

Technologies like serverless and containers running on the latest processors in the cloud or at the edge, are the keys to fast, secure modern applications that meet even the most challenging business demands. Here are two primary pathways to start modernization

Benefits of building on AWS

Speed to market

Organizations can gain a competitive advantage by speeding up build cycles. Deliver reliable products and user experiences faster and cheaper while offloading operational overhead to AWS.

Improve performance and lower your TCO

AWS modern application services take on more of the day-to-day operational overhead so you can redirect precious resources to value-added activities. Additionally, AWS serverless services deliver a pay-for-value billing model, never pay for over-provisioning, and benefit from resource utilization that is automatically optimized for you.

Build better applications by default

AWS Serverless services include best practices by default including cross-availability zone replication and security isolation, so you can take advantage of more AWS best practices effortlessly.

Improve scalability

AWS modern applications services enable you to architect applications that scale reliably, increase performance, and maintain security as you grow. With services like AWS Lambda, which processes over one trillion functions per month, AWS can help you operate at any scale you need.

Build for speed and productivity with AWS serverless services

Build new, modern apps using serverless and serverless containers technologies and tools to accelerate time to market and help shift developer focus toward innovation. Avoid managing physical servers while benefiting from automatic scaling, built-in high availability, and a pay-for-value billing model. AWS has the broadest set of serverless technologies for compute, integration and orchestration, and databases.

Build secure, scalable Kubernetes on AWS

Simplify operations and make it easier to run applications on Kubernetes in the cloud or on-premises by offloading management overhead to AWS. Amazon EKS takes full advantage of AWS’s operational expertise to provide a highly reliable, scalable, and secure Kubernetes environment. Create differentiated applications with the freedom to leverage over 200+ AWS services plus all existing plug-ins and tooling from the CNCF Kubernetes community. AWS open-source project Karpenter allows Kubernetes to optimize costs by taking full advantage of AWS’s compute options while maintaining application performance.

Innovate faster with generative AI on AWS

Generative AI is a type of AI that can create new content and ideas, including conversations, stories, images, videos, and music. It is powered by large models that are pre-trained on vast amounts of data and commonly referred to as foundation models (FMs). With generative AI on AWS, you can reinvent your applications, create entirely new customer experiences, drive unprecedented levels of productivity, and transform your business. Choose from a range of popular FMs, or use AWS services that have generative AI built in, all running on the most cost-effective cloud infrastructure for generative AI.
