Doesn't AWS have its own infrastructure? Why would they run on top of other hosting providers?


Yes, of course they have their own infra. But there are also reasons to partner. Not having a presence in a region. Not wanting to do the initial capital outlay. Offloading risk. etc.


I've seen many other services do this type of partnering and sometimes expect them to depending on the size, but this is definitely new information to me about Amazon doing this. Thanks.
