Amazon Web Services
Choosing a Cloud Platform
Developing, managing, and operating your applications requires a wide variety of technology services. Customers often ask us what represents a fully-functional, flexible technology infrastructure platform. We outline requirements for a modern, robust, industry-leading technology infrastructure platform with all the benefits that the cloud brings to bear. We also provide information about how AWS delivers against these requirements and why you might need each of these capabilities.
Secure
Comprehensive security capabilities to satisfy the most demanding information security requirements.
Private, isolated resources
Choose the right level of isolation for your apps, and integrate with existing resources.
Compliant
Rich controls, auditing and broad security accreditations.
Hybrid
Build hybrid IT architectures that extend your on-premises infrastructure to the Cloud.
Scalable Web Applications
Highly available and scalable web hosting can be complex and expensive. Dense peak periods and wild swings in traffic patterns result in low utilization of expensive hardware. AWS provides the reliable, scalable, secure, and high-performance infrastructure required for web applications while enabling an elastic, scale-out and scale-down infrastructure to match IT costs in real time as customer traffic fluctuates.
Web Application Security
Protecting your infrastructure requires you to detect threats, identify suspicious network traffic, and respond quickly – whether the problem is in your own data center, a hosted environment or the cloud. How do you get a global view of the threats impacting all of your infrastructure, day or night, without massive investments in multiple solutions and additional staff? Alert Logic® Web Security Manager actively protects web applications from dangerous and frequent attacks such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting by proactively blocking malicious traffic while allowing legitimate traffic to pass unaffected.
Content & Media Serving
Serving digital content is one of the most basic and straightforward tasks—that is, until you have serious requirements for low latency, high availability, durability, access control, and millions of views on or under budget. In addition, because of “spiky” usage patterns, operations teams often need to provision static hardware, network, and management resources to support the maximum expected need, which guarantees waste outside of peak hours.
