Verizon on AWS
Verizon Communications Inc. (Verizon), the largest mobile carrier in the US, selected Amazon Web Services (AWS) as its preferred public cloud provider with plans to migrate over 1,000 business-critical applications and database backend systems to AWS.
Overview
As a pioneer in 5G wireless technology, Verizon was the first company to offer a commercial 5G mobile network. Now, developers can create and deploy low-latency applications on Verizon's 5G Edge platform using AWS Wavelength for mobile edge computing infrastructure. Building on AWS, Verizon innovates for its customers so they can support hybrid cloud architectures with applications such as autonomous mobile robots and hazard monitoring.
Enabling safer, smarter cities with Verizon and AWS
Verizon is leveraging its long-standing collaboration with AWS to power the future of connected infrastructure and mobility. With a software-defined 5G network and AWS Wavelength Zones extending compute to the network edge, Verizon enables low-latency, real-time communication for critical services—like traffic management, emergency response, and vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) safety systems.
