Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the de facto leader in the worldwide cloud infrastructure market, accounting for nearly 33% in 2019. As of January 2020, AWS offers nearly 160 global cloud-based products including compute, storage, databases, analytics, networking, mobile, developer tools, management tools, IoT, security and enterprise applications. Millions of customers, including startups, large-scale enterprises, and government agencies rely on AWS cloud services to power their business.

Developer tools have a high capacity for driving cloud usage and organizations adopt cloud native application development to take advantage of the power of the cloud computing model. Teams utilize cloud native technologies to build and deploy to a limitless number of cloud services, but with small teams managing microservices written in different languages deployed using separate tools, information silos eventually emerge.

As organizations continue their journey around digital transformation, DevSecOps has become the go-to set of best practices to increase their velocity of delivering value to the business while increasing quality. Breaking down the walls and reducing the handoffs necessary to complete a full delivery lifecycle is also very important and remains a challenge to most organizations.
