Amazon Web Services (AWS), the cloud subsidiary of Amazon.com, has announced plans to launch a new regional infrastructure in Mexico by early 2025.
This new offering will enable users (developers, startups, entrepreneurs, businesses and other organizations) to run their applications and serve end users from Mexico, ensuring that customers who wish to store their content in Mexico can do so.
As part of its long-term commitment to Latin America, AWS plans to invest over $5 billion in Mexico over 15 years.
''Our investment in Mexico reflects AWS's long-term commitment to its customers so that they can benefit from advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning'', commented Prasad Kalyanaraman, Vice President of Infrastructure Services at AWS.
With this launch, AWS now has 105 regions in 33 availability zones worldwide.
