A brief overview of your work

I’m looking after a team called solutions architecture team for public sector in India. They ensure that our clients, who use AWS cloud, are able to optimise on AWS cloud on a number of fronts – most cost effective way of using the AWS cloud, performance, security, scalability and other factors. Within public sector, the way we look at public sector is Central govt, State govt, higher education and the start ups in the education space or edtechs. Majority of the edtechs run on AWS cloud in India. Then there are non profits. Coming back to the global business, AWS has millions of active customers on a monthly basis. Within India, we have hundreds of thousands of customers in both public and commercial sectors. They use more than 165 services we offer around computing, storage, databases, AI, VR, AR. Depending on the applications used by the public institutions, there are services available on AWS cloud. Behind these 165 services, there are thousands of features and capabilities that these services offer. AWS ends up reducing the bills for their customers by optimizing the workload– 73 price reductions globally since AWS launched in 2006
