Boeing and AWS partner to transform aerospace design and manufacturing

Amazon Web Services, Inc. and Boeing announced an expanded relationship that extends the aerospace company’s existing cloud operations and streamlines Boeing’s approach to cloud computing. Boeing will migrate applications out of on-premises data centers to AWS and create a technology foundation that will strengthen engineering and manufacturing processes, the partners claim. AWS will power new and existing Boeing digital applications to unlock insights to drive product innovation, more efficient operations, and improved customer support. Beyond the cloud relationship, Amazon Air has grown its fleet to more than 110 Boeing aircraft to facilitate the movement of goods to Amazon customers worldwide, they note.
