Amazon Web Services의 타임라인

Appearance This is a timeline of Amazon Web Services, which offers a suite of cloud computing services that make up an on-demand computing platform. | Year | Month and date (if available) | Event type | Details | |---|---|---|---| | 2000 | Prelude | Amazon.com, the parent company of the as yet nonexistent Amazon Web Services (AWS), begins work on merchant.com, an e-commerce platform intended for use by other large retailers such as Target Corporation. In the process, Amazon's team realizes that they need to decouple their code better, with cleaner interfaces and access APIs. Around the same time, the company also realizes the need to build infrastructure as a service internally, to improve the speed of development and not have it bottlenecked by infrastructure availability. All these changes help pave the way for AWS.[1][2] | | | 2003 | Prelude | Benjamin Black and Chris Pinkham write a short paper describing a vision for Amazon infrastructure that, in Black's words, "was completely standardized, completely automated, and relied extensively on web services for things like storage."[3][4][5][6][7] | | | 2004 | Prelude | Jeff Bezos approves the idea of experimenting with Amazon infrastructure. Pinkham leaves for South Africa to set up a satellite development office. While there, he works on a pilot along with help from Chris Brown and Willem van Biljon. Although the team works from South Africa, the servers are hosted in the United States.[5][6][8] | | | 2004 | November 9 | Customer outreach | The Amazon Web Services blog is launched, with a first blog post by Jeff Barr.[9][10] At the time, the name Amazon Web Services refers to a collection of APIs and tools to access the Amazon.com catalog, rather than the infrastructure as a service it would eventually become.[10][11][12][13] | | 2005 | Prelude | A private precursor to AWS launches, with a small number of customers.[6] At the same time, Amazon begins planning for a public launch of AWS. Based on internal discussions, they decide to launch storage, compute, and database offerings so that developers can use all of them together.[2] | | Year | Month and date (if available) | Event type | Details | |---|---|---|---| | 2006 | March 14 | Product (storage) | Amazon Web Services launches by releasing the Simple Storage Service (S3).[14][15] | | 2006 | July 13 | Product (data flow) | Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) is released in production.[16] SQS had been around (but not available in production) since 2004.[10] | | 2006 | August 25 | Product (compute) | Amazon launches Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), which forms a central part of Amazon.com's cloud-computing platform, Amazon Web Services (AWS), by allowing users to rent virtual computers on which to run their own computer applications. The service initially includes machines (instances) available for 10 cents an hour, and is available only to existing AWS customers rather than the general public. The EC2 region is us-east-1, also known as compute-1, and is located in North Virginia.[17][18] | | 2007 | August 22 | Product (compute) | Amazon EC2 is now available in unlimited public beta, so that anybody can sign up and start using it. It also launches new instance types.[19] | | 2007 | November 6 | Regional diversification | Amazon launches S3 in Europe, reducing latency and bandwidth for European users and helping them comply with privacy requirements.[20] | | 2007 | December 13 | Product (database) | Amazon launches Amazon SimpleDB, which allows businesses, researchers, data analysts, and developers to easily and cheaply process vast amounts of data. It uses a hosted Hadoop framework running on the web-scale infrastructure of EC2 and Amazon S3.[21][22] | | 2008 | March 26 | Product, regional diversification | Amazon announces Elastic IPs, IP addresses that can be decoupled from physical EC2 machines, as well as availability zones, clusters of one or more data centers in a region such that different availability zones are isolated from each other in terms of power and water sources.[23][24] | | 2008 | April 7 | Competition | Google launches Google App Engine, a platform as a service (PaaS) cloud computing platform for developing and hosting web applications in Google-managed data centers.[25] This is part of the Google Cloud. | | 2008 | August 20 | Product (storage) | Amazon announces the launch of Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS), which provides raw block-level storage that can be attached to Amazon EC2 instances.[26] | | 2008 | October 23 | Product (service) | Amazon EC2 exits beta and begins offering a service level agreement.[27] | | 2008 | November 18 | Product (Internet delivery) | AWS launches Amazon CloudFront, a content delivery network (CDN).[28] | | 2008 | December 10 | Regional diversification | Amazon launches EC2 in Europe (specifically, the region eu-west-1 in Ireland), making it easier for European customers to run their instances locally and benefit from higher bandwidth and lower latency. This comes a year after the setting up of S3 in Europe.[29][30] | | 2009 | April | Product (compute) | Amazon launches Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR), which allows businesses, researchers, data analysts, and developers to easily and cheaply process vast amounts of data. It uses a hosted Hadoop framework running on the web-scale infrastructure of EC2 and Amazon S3. | | 2009 | May 18 | Product (compute) | Amazon introduces Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) (which makes it easy for users to distribute web traffic across Amazon EC2 instances), Auto Scaling (which allows users to scale policies driven by metrics collected by Amazon CloudWatch), and Amazon CloudWatch (for tracking per-instance performance metrics including CPU load).[31] | | 2009 | May 21 | Product (data migration) | AWS announces an Import/Export service, whereby people can send their storage device to AWS and AWS will upload the data to S3. This is a predecessor of the Snowball service that they would launch in October 2015.[32] | | 2009 | Aug 25 | Product (networking) | AWS launches Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), allowing customers launch EC2 instances into their own logically isolated networks, with the ability to define subnets, routing and access control lists.[33] | | 2009 | October 22 | Product (database) | Amazon launches Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS), a web service running "in the cloud" designed to simplify the setup, operation, and scaling of a relational database for use in applications. It starts out by supporting MySQL databases.[34][35] | | 2009 | December 3 | Regional diversification | AWS launches in a second region in the United States called us-west-1, located in Northern California.[36] | | 2009 | December 13 | Product (compute) | AWS announces EC2 Spot Instances, allowing users to bid for one or more EC2 instances at the price they are willing to pay.[37] | | 2010 | February | Competition | Microsoft launches Microsoft Azure, its foray into cloud computing.[38] | | 2010 | April 7 | Product (Internet delivery) | AWS launches Simple Notification Service (SNS), a tool to allow developers to push messages generated from an application to other systems and people (by methods such as email or webhooks).[39] | | 2010 | April 29 | Regional diversification | AWS launches a region, called ap-southeast-1, in Singapore. This is its first region in the Asia-Pacific, and is intended to meet the demand for lower latency and better bandwidth for the growing customer base in the Asia-Pacific region.[40] | | 2010 | May 15 | Product (management) | Amazon launches AWS CloudFormation, its tool to help customers define collections of AWS resources (called stacks) with AWS taking care of using the definitions to provision and configure the required resources. CloudFormation is an early example of a declarative Infrastructure as Code tool.[41] | | 2010 | Sep 2 | IAM (security) | AWS launches identity and access management (IAM) – Preview Beta.[42] | | 2010 | November | Product | Amazon announces that Amazon.com has migrated its retail web services to AWS.[43] | | 2010 | December 5 | Product (Internet delivery) | AWS launches Amazon Route 53, a scalable and highly available Domain Name System that can be accessed via programmatic APIs.[44][45] | | 2011 | January 19 | Product (management) | AWS launches AWS Elastic Beanstalk, an orchestration service for deploying infrastructure which orchestrates AWS services including EC2, S3, SNS, CloudWatch, autoscaling, and Elastic Load Balancers.[46][47] | | 2011 | January 25 | Product (Internet delivery) | AWS announces the launch of Amazon Simple Email Service (SES), a service for large-scale email delivery.[48][49] A week later, MailChimp announces its own Simple Transaction Service (STS) for bulk email delivery using SES.[50] | | 2011 | March 2 | Regional diversification | AWS launches a new region, named ap-northeast-1 in Tokyo, Japan, its second in the Asia-Pacific region. The region is launched to meet the needs of AWS' current and potential Japanese customer base for low latency and better bandwidth.[51] | | 2011 | June 21 | Competition | DigitalOcean launches.[52] By November 2015, it becomes the second largest hosting company in the world in terms of web-facing computers.[53][54] | | 2011 | July 19 | Ecosystem | Netflix announces its suite of tools ("Simian Army") including Chaos Monkey, that randomly terminates EC2 instances within an autoscaling group during working hours so that the company is forced to design its systems with fault tolerance and rapid recovery.[55] | | 2011 | November 9 | Regional diversification | AWS launches a new region called us-west-2 and located in Oregon, its third region in the United States for general public use.[56][57] | | 2011 | December 14 | Regional diversification | AWS launches a new region, called sa-east-1, in São Paulo, Brazil. This is its first region in South America.[58] | | 2012 | January 18 | Product (database) | Amazon launches Amazon DynamoDB, a fully managed proprietary NoSQL database service that is offered by Amazon.com as part of the Amazon Web Services portfolio.[59] | | 2012 | April 29 | Ecosystem | AWS Marketplace is "an online store where customers can find, buy, and quickly deploy software that runs on AWS."[60][61] | | 2012 | June 11 | Product (security) | Amazon launches AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) for EC2.[62] | | 2012 | July 30 | Ecosystem | Netflix open sources Chaos Monkey, its tool for simulating outages by randomly terminating EC2 instances, to help other companies build fault tolerant systems in the AWS cloud.[63][64][65] | | 2012 | July 30 | Product (storage) | Provisioned IOPS (PIOPs) are a new EBS volume type designed to deliver predictable, higher performance for I/O intensive workloads.[66][67] | | 2012 | August 21 | Product (storage) | Amazon launches Amazon Glacier, an online file storage web service that provides storage for data archiving and backup.[68] | | 2012 | November | Product (storage) | AWS announces Amazon Redshift, a cloud-based data warehouse service.[69] | | 2012 | November 12 | Regional diversification | AWS launches a region, ap-southeast-2, in Sydney, Australia. This is its third region in the Asia-Pacific and its eighth public region (excluding AWS GovCloud).[70] | | 2013 | March 26 | Product | AWS CloudHSM[71] | | 2013 | May 13 | Recognition | AWS is awarded an Agency Authority to Operate (ATO) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP).[72] | | 2013 | June 4 | Competition | IBM acquires SoftLayer, which marks IBM's entry into cloud computing.[73] | | 2013 | October 10 | Customer outreach | AWS announces AWS Activate, a global program for startups.

Rather, it is a standalone region with the same APIs and services as available in other AWS regions, but a user must create a separate AWS account for AWS China and cannot use the AWS Global account. The service operator is Beijing Sinnet Technology Co.[81] | | 2014 | August | Security Certification | AWS first to achieve MTCS Level 3 Certification.[82] | | 2014 | October 23 | Regional diversification | AWS launches its second region in Europe, specifically, eu-central-1 in Frankfurt, Germany.[83] | | 2014 | November 12 | Product (database) | AWS announces Amazon Aurora, a MySQL-compatible database offering enhanced high availability and performance.[84][85] The feature becomes available to all AWS customers on July 27, 2015.[86][87] | | 2014 | November 12 | Product (security) | AWS Key Management Service[88] | | 2014 | November 13 | Product (compute) | AWS launches a preview of EC2 Container Service (ECS), facilitating the use of container infrastructure on AWS. Third-party integration such as those with Docker are available at the time of release.[89][90][91][92] | | 2014 | November 13 | Product (compute) | AWS launches AWS Lambda, its Functions as a Service (FaaS) tool. With Lambda, AWS customers can define and upload functions with specific triggers and execution code. AWS takes care of executing the function on the trigger occurring, and the AWS customer does not have to provision or manage the compute resources.[93][94] Lambda is an early harbinger of the concept of "serverless architecture", referring to the idea of providing services without having dedicated servers to provide those services.[95][96][97] | | 2014 | December 17 | Product | Introduction of Resource Groups and Tag Editor in AWS Management Console[98] | | 2015 | February 12 | Product | Introduction of permission and privileged policies managed by Amazon in AWS Identity & Access Management (IAM).[99] | | 2015 | April 9 | Product | AWS announces a new machine learning platform at the AWS Summit in San Francisco, specifically suited to machine learning without requiring specific expertise.[100] | | 2015 | April 28 | Acquisitions | AWS acquires ClusterK, a startup that allows users to run apps on Amazon's cloud for 1/10th of the regular price.[101] | | 2015 | May 19 | Evaluation | Gartner releases an updated version of its Magic Quadr
