AWS Partners with Avalanche Blockchain

·14 min·2 clips
Developers will be able to launch their own blockchain on AWS—and 100+ subnets are coming in the next year.
The host discusses a major partnership between Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Ava Labs, the company behind the Avalanche blockchain. AWS will support Avalanche's infrastructure, DApps ecosystem, and provide one-click node deployments through its marketplace. The partnership allows Ava Labs to join AWS Activate, giving the company and startups better access to AWS platform. Avalanche's competitive advantage is having the fastest transaction finality time of any blockchain. While AWS already powers about 20% of all blockchains and 25% of Ethereum workloads, this is AWS's first formal strategic blockchain partnership, signaling growing enterprise legitimacy for blockchain technology. Ava Labs plans to offer subnet deployments (custom Layer 1/Layer 2 blockchains) as a managed service on AWS Marketplace, with 100+ subnets planned for launch within 6-12 months.
