In related AWS re:Invent sessions ending today, three of the most senior AWS and Amazon executives spoke about new innovations, architectural advances, and the future of cloud engineering. Session presenters included Adam Selipsky, Chief Executive Officer of Amazon Web Services, Dr. Werner Vogels, CTO at Amazon.com, and Peter DeSantis, Senior Vice President of AWS Utility Computing.
Adam Selipsky laid down a marker for the broader cloud community and all ‘forward-thinking builders’ with this stunning metric − “83% of the 1000+ unicorns run on AWS.”
It’s a powerful vote of confidence in the AWS cloud and a solid proof point. But there was much more:
- AWS has the largest community of Partners.
- AWS has the broadest range of databases and analytical services.
- AWS drives cloud innovation across integration, security, governance, and visualization.
- The AWS Nitro V5 chip has twice the transistors, 50% more memory, and double the bandwidth.
- The AWS C7GN graviton-based processor (running on Nitro) provides speeds up to 200 GB/second and 50% higher packet processing over C6CN.
- AWS customers are saving 30% or more by moving to the cloud.
- One cloud study identified a 43% reduction in time to market, with some firms saving 60% overall.
With the real power of the cloud, the power to explore and transform, you can create an environment of innovation to try out new ideas and iterate quickly, eliminating the fear of failures and penalties. The cloud allows you to build bigger, better, and bolder things by putting data at the center of your decision-making. This is revolutionary as it makes your organization more innovative, more agile and ultimately transforms its culture.
Persistent believes the cloud is arguably the most important component of your digital journey. We understand that data is at the center of business processes and business applications and is the cornerstone of digital transformation.
