AWS and Ava Labs are working together to provide scalable blockchain solutions to everyone, including governments
Under the partnership, Ava Labs will also join AWS Activate, extending AWS credit benefits to developers within the Avalanche ecosystem.
IT service management company Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Ava Labs have come together to promote blockchain adoption by businesses, institutions and governments. In particular, Ava Labs is developing the layer-1 blockchain Avalanche, and AWS supports the infrastructure, dApp ecosystem, and one-click node deployment via the AWS Marketplace. The joint venture aims to make it easier for individuals to launch and manage nodes on Avalanche. At the same time, the partnership will build on the network’s strength and flexibility for developers.
Ava Labs’ CEO and founder Emin Gün Sirer commented on the new relationship with Amazon Web Services. She stated:
“It’s been a huge boon for both individual and enterprise developers to be able to spin up nodes and test networks on the fly with AWS in the legal jurisdiction that makes the most sense for them. I’m proud that we’ve implemented a protocol that can accommodate millions of participants with near-immediate finality. Our work with Amazon can accelerate the positive impact of Avalanche.”

With the subnet distributions Ava Labs intends to add to the AWS Marketplace, institutions and individuals will find it easier to launch custom subnets with a few clicks. In addition, this feature includes the ability to deploy validators to secure the subnet. And Subnet will also easily help developers spin up their own blockchain in Amazon. Ava Labs president John Wu explained that Avalanche started development of about five to six active subnets last quarter. However, more than 100 subnets will be deployed in the next six to 12 months.
Under the partnership, Ava Labs will also join AWS Activate, extending AWS credit benefits to developers within the Avalanche ecosystem. Wu said developers can use AWS Activate, an excellent resource, to offer apps to the public “with Avalanche’s breakthrough speed, security and scalability at its core.”
AWS Vice President and Global Head of Startup Howard Wright commented:
“At AWS, we’re all about bringing the most cutting-edge technology to builders, whether they’re sitting in a multi-million-dollar enterprise, a government office, or a dorm room. The new capabilities Avalanche brings enable us to do just that. We is excited to add an innovator like Ava Labs to our partner network and to support new tools for Avalanche’s infrastructure and ecosystem, helping to expand its use into new geographies and customer segments.”
Furthermore, the partners work together with events for developers and entrepreneurs. Such events include Avalanche Creates, Avalanche Summits and hackathons. These events will focus on technical and non-technical people to build on Avalanche.
