The first version of WordPress was released in 2003, and as such it was not built with modern elastic and scalable cloud-based infrastructures in mind. Through the work of the WordPress community and the release of various WordPress modules, the capabilities of this CMS solution are constantly expanding. Today it is possible to build a WordPress architecture that takes advantage of many of the benefits of the AWS platform. AWS provides a reliable, scalable, secure, and highly performing infrastructure for the most demanding applications.
