Windows has been a first-class citizen at AWS for over a decade. More enterprises run Windows workloads today on AWS than any other cloud—according to IDC, it’s over 57%, 2X than the next provider. Over this period, we’ve worked with customers across the globe and taken their feedback to build the solutions that best support their Microsoft workloads.

Since 2008, the Microsoft ecosystem on AWS has grown to much more than just running virtual machines. We have solutions for SQL, Active Directory, .NET developers and more, as well as options to bring your licenses to extend the value of your existing investments.

Over the course of the week at AWS re:Invent, we are offering over 75 sessions covering Microsoft technologies in AWS, with a combination of breakout sessions, workshops, chalk talks, and builder sessions.
