Four of the largest tech companies, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and Amazon continue to expand their cloud computing services and products. The competition is so intense, Google has a calculator on their cloud service website to compare prices with Amazon Web Services. It is smart business, as well as giving AWS an indirect plug. I suggest a company develop a website, like Orbitz for cloud computing, that displays the different companies, services, products, and prices in an organizable fashion. The website RightScale, is currently doing something similar to this idea. RightScale has a breakdown of their top four companies including: AWS,

Amazon Web Services announced today space, training and opportunities that will be available for developers working with Alexa Skills.

They will also have an option to receive an additional $100 per month in AWS promotional credits if they incur AWS usage charges for their component.

Amazon Go to Open Tech-Fueled Grocery Stores

By |December 5th, 2016|Categories: Amazon, Culinary, Economy, Featured, Local News, National News, Seattle, Tech News, YouTube|Tags: , , , , , , , |

Amazon announced today their new technology-based grocery store in Seattle. The company has created an application to help shoppers connect with products. The app and store is called Amazon Go. If you watch the video below it gives a walkthrough of how the technology works. Amazon is pushing hard for a checkout-free shopping experience, but I'm not totally buying that line.

Amazon, the Seattle-based technology company, steamrolls through the negativity of the past election, right through climate change, and arrives in Virgina to change the world with five new solar farms. When Amazon created two wind farms in Ohio, I was excited, but to see them work directly with the eastern seaboard is an exciting piece of progression behind the clean energy movement. This level of progression is summerized by Amazon and Business Wire: 'By supporting 260MW of solar generation capacity in Virginia, Amazonbecomes the largest corporate backer of solar projects east of the Mississippi River.'  They also spoke with Governor
