Amazon Web Services Start-Up Challenge

In order to propel the popularity of its already well-hyped web services program, Amazon has launched the Web Services Start-Up Challenge. The rules are simple, seven finalists have a limited amount of time to produce their start-up site using only Amazon web services, which are a set of tools to allow scalable storage and hosting of web sites and applications. The winner receives $50,000 in cash, $50,000 in Amazon Web Services Credits, and an investment offer from Amazon themselves – not too shabby.

Over the last year, numerous big names in the industry have been offloading all or some of their processing to Amazon’s new kid on the (web hosting) block.
