Customers around the world – from financial institutions, manufacturers, production studios, and telecom providers – will now be able to use the power of AWS on-premises and build applications with the same APIs, services, and hardware as they use in the AWS cloud to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility. From autonomous vehicle operations to automated industrial environments, AWS Outposts will enable customers to deliver new experiences to end-users as well as re-architect their legacy applications.
