Amazon.com continues to innovate…
Forget books, MP3 players or vacuums. Amazon.com wants to offer you a copy of the human genome this holiday season.
Amazon Web Services, a subsidiary of Amazon.com, has started offering access to large collections of data. Business customers and scientists can take the information, which ranges from census databases to three-dimensional chemical structures and the genome, and use it as the basis for computing jobs. By gathering and storing the information, Amazon says that it can save businesses the step of assembling and managing data on their own.
