What is AWS?🤔

Hey!
It's Shriya. It is 2022 and AWS is getting so popular nowadays, but still some of the College and University Students like me🌚 still don't know that "What is AWS (Amazon Web Services)"? So let's explore the Basic Definition of AWS and why it is getting so popular nowadays.
Now here comes the Definition from Google and other sources: -
"AWS provides servers, storage, networking, remote computing, email, mobile development, and security."

Still doesn't get it🤔? The AWS is basically a cloud provider–from infrastructure technologies like computing, storage, and databases–to emerging technologies, such as ML and AI, data lakes and analytics, and the IoT.
AWS and some of its most used technologies, But???
There are other Cloud infrastructure technologies too like Azure, Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, Oracle Cloud, and many more…
So what makes AWS so popular? Following are some of the famous reasons for choosing AWS:-
Large Community
AWS has the largest community, with more than a million active users and thousand of partners worldwide. People across the world use AWS from every country and industry. Whether it is a Tech Giant or a Small Startup, Programmers and Cloud Architects love to play with AWS technologies and services.
Secure
AWS is considered to have one of the most secured and flexible cloud computing environments today. AWS supports 80+ security standards and compliance certifications, more than 100 AWS services that are storing customer data offer the ability to encrypt that data, and all of this is backed by a deep set of cloud security tools, with 200+ security, compliance, and governance services and features.
