Amazon Web Services (AWS) will spend £1.8bn on cloud computing infrastructure in the UK over the next two years, doubling its investment in Britain. AWS is the cloud market leader, but is facing increased competition from fellow tech giants Microsoft and Google in the battle to secure enterprise clients.
Announcing the news earlier today, AWS said it is making the move “to meet the growing needs of our customers and to help strengthen the UK’s digital infrastructure”. In a statement the company added: “This will bring AWS’s total investment in the UK to more than double what it is today, since launching the AWS London Region in 2016.”
