Amazon Web Services provides a scalable and extensible software framework for a wide variety of application development. With the capability for clients to create their own set of virtual servers on the EC2 infrastructure, use large-scale NoSQL database DynamoDB, and implement fast search of big data through CloudSearch, the framework provides extensive computing capabilities at low cost. S3 storage instances can bring terabytes of storage and data transfer for a fraction of the cost that hosting a similar data center would incur. In addition, through a fully managed interface, network administration cost is reduced and reliability and redundancy is simplified.

Most of the Amazon Web Services are compatible with the Java, C#, Python, and PHP languages. Extensions in many other languages also exist, to bring simple integration of AWS into most systems. Where a pre-built API is not available, Amazon provides traditional web services for access to most operations.

Although the system is quite flexible and straightforward, there are occasional problems that projects might face during development and support. The Amazon Simple Email Services (SES) system, for instance, might arbitrarily block outgoing emails is the drop rate reaches a certain threshold. In this scenario, an incorrectly configured email server, for instance, could cause the entire application to step sending emails to clients. For non-critical applications this might not be a problem, however applications that leverage SES to send time-sensitive information such as sales leads might need a parallel solution or monitoring system to guarantee delivery.
