## Summary

Amazon Web Services is growing rapidly as demand for cloud computing and AI lifts its revenue, leading chief executive Andy Jassy to predict it could become a $1 trillion-a-year business within five to ten years. He said AWS may grow by 40 per cent or more in 2027 or 2028, as companies move workloads from their own data centres to the cloud.

AWS is forecast to generate $184 billion in revenue this financial year, after third-quarter revenue rose 39.3 per cent to nearly $46 billion. Jassy said AWS installs an AI accelerator about every 14 seconds, while customers take up new capacity almost as quickly; Amazon plans $220 billion in capital spending in 2026. The rest of Amazon grew more slowly, with retail and operations revenue up 6 per cent, while total company revenue reached $180.17 billion for the quarter.
