Creating a more efficient organizational ecosystem through Amazon Web Services (AWS) Malaysia
We have splendid news!
PEOPLElogy Group is pleased to announce that we will be holding our AWS Discovery Day on the 14th April 2023, which will be organized by one of our brands, New Horizons Malaysia.
If you’re unfamiliar with what AWS is and what it has to offer – fret not. We will give you the nitty-gritty of why AWS is the next big thing to revolutionize the cloud computing scene in Malaysia.
In October 2022, the world’s most widely used cloud platform, Amazon Web Services Inc. was replaced with Amazon Web Services Malaysia, which was introduced as the reseller for AWS cloud services for accounts based in Malaysia. AWS, with its global presence and multifaceted, user-friendly features, it didn’t take long for small-medium enterprises (SMEs) to government linked companies (GLCs) to show interest in AWS services.
?This was evident during the recent AWS Cloud Day in Malaysia, as the event received a very position reception from the huge turnout of attendees, including ministers, leading industry professionals, key gamechangers and delegates. Many valuable insights and knowledge were shared during the one-day event. It was also revealed that Amazon was planning to invest RM 25.5 billion (US$6 billion) in Malaysia by 2037, which will be the largest investment in Malaysia to date, facilitating the growth of many individuals, businesses, and governments alike who will implement now or in the future.
?AWS was launched in 2006 and has since grown leaps and bounds with the expansion of its services and features it offers to the greater public. Today, the tech giant operates its AWS branches in 31 regions, each with multiple Availability Zones (AZs). Its recent AWS is also fully operational in 99 availability zo nes. AWS has announced that it’s planning to include 15 more availability zones and 5 more AWS regions in Canada, Israel, Malaysia, New Zealand, and Thailand.
Today, around 33% of the cloud market share is dominated by AWS, and it’s no wonder why! The on-demand cloud computing platform is renowned for its speed and agility, making application deployment quick and easy. AWS also offers a pricing plan that’s appealing to consumers and businesses alike. The three payment plans available include no upfront costs, partial upfront payment, as well as a full upfront payment. AWS also charges by the hour in comparison to Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform which charges by the minute. The friendly pricing option allows AWS Cloud consumers to monitor and control their costs associated with AWS Cloud integration into their business.
?Are you running a small business? AWS’ easy hosting application and data migration makes it easier for you to keep up with rapid changes in your industry. AWS allows load balancing, monitoring, and automatic scaling which enables businesses (especially SMEs) in Malaysia to operate in an agile manner. AWS’ storage space – applications and resources are easy to load and configure which enables faster deployments and operations.
