Dynamically scalable shared resources accessed
over a network
• Only pay for what you use
• Shared internally or with other customers

Amazon EC2’s simple web service interface allows you to obtain and
configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete
control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon’s
proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 reduces the time
required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutes, allowing
you to quickly scale capacity, both up and down, as your computing
requirements change. Amazon EC2 changes the economics of
computing by allowing you to pay only for capacity that you actually
use. Amazon EC2 provides developers the tools to build failure resilient
applications and isolate themselves from common failure scenarios.
