Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Great piece of software
Easy to set up and launch. I had the server up and running in less than an hour. User setup and endpoint setup is easy. I highly recommend locking down your security group with private IPs if possible. Now I have my backups going straight to S3 buckets bypassing the commercial cloud backup solution offered to me by another company.
The compatibility of FTP with the resilliance of S3
You can write your software to use s3 with its many advantages over FTP while allowing legacy systems to use the FTP, SFTP or FTPS to send or receive data.
Customer support is fantastic! I always hear back very quickly from someone who has deep technical insight into the product.
Throughput is very good and there are a lot of available configuration options.
