Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, also known as "EC2", is a commercial web service which allows paying customers to rent computers on which to run their own computer applications. EC2 allows scalable deployment of applications by providing a web services interface through which customers can request an arbitrary number of Virtual Machines, i.e. server instances, on which they can load any software of their choice. Current users are able to create, launch, and terminate server instances on demand, hence the term "elastic". The Amazon implementation allows server instances to be created in zones that are insulated from correlated failures. EC2 is one of several web services provided by Amazon. com under the blanket term Amazon Web Services (AWS).
