History

Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in July 1994. He chose Seattle because of technical


talent as Microsoft is located there.[32] In May 1997, Amazon went public. It
began selling music and videos in 1998, at which time it began operations
internationally by acquiring online sellers of books in United
Kingdom and Germany. The following year, Amazon began selling items
including video games, consumer electronics, home improvement items,
software, games, and toys.
In 2002, Amazon launched Amazon Web Services (AWS), which provided data
on website popularity, Internet traffic patterns and other statistics for marketers
and developers. In 2006, Amazon grew its AWS portfolio when Elastic
Compute Cloud (EC2), which rents computer processing power as well
as Simple Storage Service (S3), that rents data storage via the Internet, were

made available. That same year, Amazon started Fulfillment by Amazon which


managed the inventory of individuals and small companies selling their
belongings through the company internet site. In 2012, Amazon bought Kiva
Systems to automate its inventory-management business, purchasing Whole
Foods Market supermarket chain five years later in 2017.
