Open Data on AWS
Discover, analyze and share large datasets to accelerate research and innovation within AWS Open Data Globally
What is Open Data on AWS?
AWS Open Data program allows researchers, analysts, and developers to access and analyze vast amounts of data without the burden of storage and transfer costs. It democratizes access to important datasets, fostering innovation across various fields.
When data is shared on AWS, anyone can analyze it and build services on top of it using a broad range of AI/ML, compute and data analytics products, including Amazon EC2, Amazon Sagemaker, Amazon, Bedrock, Amazon Athena, AWS Lambda, and Amazon EMR. Sharing data in the cloud lets data users spend more time on data analysis rather than data acquisition.
The Registry of Open Data makes it easy to find datasets made publicly available through AWS services.
Benefits
Researchers can analyze data shared on AWS without needing to pay to store their own copy. They only pay for the compute they use, and do not need to purchase storage to start a project.
When you share data on AWS, you make it available to a large and growing community of developers, startups, and enterprises around the world.
In AWS, tools to analyze data are only ever a click away, which means you reduce the time it takes for people to start working with your data.
The AWS Cloud expands daily, and data shared on AWS becomes more useful as new features and services are released.
