Amazon Web Services (AWS) have long defined the cloud industry, and with a new set of services announced today the definition is expanding.
At Amazon’s re:invent conference in Las Vegas today, CTO Werner Vogels detailed a number of new cloud services that his company is now officially launching. Those services include the new Kinesis real-time event streaming service, new virtual server instances for high-performance computing and support for the open source PostgreSQL database in Amazon’s Relational Database Service (RDS).
