Amazon Web Services (AWS) has grown to be a colossal player in the cloud computing world, and much of this success can be attributed to its foundation in open-source technologies, particularly Linux.

AWS leverages Linux to provide services, from EC2 instances to managed Kubernetes clusters, enabling businesses to scale efficiently and innovate rapidly.
