Amazon Web Services (AWS) has launched a new satellite-based cloud infrastructure, designed to provide cloud services to remote and underserved areas. The new infrastructure, called AWS Ground Station, uses a network of satellites to provide cloud services to areas that are not connected to the internet via traditional means.
Expanding Cloud Access
The launch of AWS Ground Station is seen as a major step towards expanding access to cloud services, and providing businesses and individuals with access to a range of cloud-based services. The new infrastructure will provide coverage to over 90% of the world's population, with a 30% increase in coverage over the next year.
AWS Ground Station is a significant development in the field of cloud computing, and is expected to have a major impact on the global cloud landscape.
The new infrastructure will also provide a range of other benefits, including improved disaster recovery and business continuity, as well as enhanced security and compliance.
