Amazon, founded by Jeff Bezos in July 1994, is a global technology giant headquartered in Seattle, Washington. Initially started as an online bookstore, Amazon quickly expanded its product range to become the world’s largest online retailer, offering a diverse array of items including electronics, apparel, furniture, and groceries. The company’s mission is to be “Earth’s most customer-centric company,” aiming to provide a seamless shopping experience with a wide selection, competitive prices, and fast delivery.

A major factor in Amazon’s success is its robust technological infrastructure, which includes sophisticated algorithms for personalized recommendations, an extensive logistics network, and a powerful cloud computing division known as Amazon Web Services (AWS). Launched in 2006, AWS provides scalable and cost-effective cloud solutions to businesses and government agencies worldwide, significantly contributing to Amazon’s profitability.

Amazon’s innovation extends beyond e-commerce and cloud services. The company has made significant investments in artificial intelligence and machine learning, exemplified by products like the Amazon Echo smart speaker and the Alexa voice assistant. Additionally, Amazon has ventured into physical retail with its acquisition of Whole Foods Market in 2017 and the introduction of cashier-less Amazon Go stores.
