Digital transformation has dramatically impacted the way startups deliver value and the rate at which they make changes to their products and services. Every company is becoming a technology company—either building products that are the technology itself or building products that are heavily influenced by and dependent on technology. To thrive in this new world, startups must create better experiences—and they must do it at an increasingly rapid pace. Many startups are innovating faster by changing the way they design, build, and manage applications through the use of modern applications. Modern applications, which are built with microservices, are a shift from traditional monolith (non-modular) architectures. Modern applications increase the agility of small teams as well as the reliability, security, and scalability of your applications. They can be developed faster and scale quickly to potentially millions of users, have global availability, manage petabytes or even exabytes of data, and can respond in milliseconds to customer feedback. In this eBook, you'll learn how modern applications enable and support a culture of ownership and drive innovation and why developers are increasingly using microservices architecture to store and manage data, as well as to set guardrails for the monitoring, provisioning, deployment, security, and governance of applications—and much more. And through the examples of real customer stories, you'll see how organizations of every kind are building modern applications on Amazon Web Services (AWS) to bring products to market faster, at a lower cost, and at virtually any scale.

The ability to try a lot of experiments, and 2. not having to live with the collateral damage of failed experiments." Andy Jassy, CEO, Amazon Web Services 2
