About AWS

AWS is a dynamic, growing business unit within Amazon.com.  It provides Risk Wizard with a "Cloud Computing" service that enables Risk Wizard to access servers, storage, databases and a broad set of application services over the Internet for the purposes of providing a hosted software service to Risk Wizard's clients.  

 

AWS own and maintain the network-connected hardware required for these application services, while Risk Wizard provisions its software via a web application.

Risk Wizard and AWS

Risk Wizard's preferred hosting platform provider is Amazon Web Services (AWS). Risk Wizard has an agreement with AWS to provide hosted facilities and specified services in order to provide a fully functioning and reliable hosted software service.

 

At any time we may contract with an additional or alternative supplier for similar type services.
