How do AWS managed services assist customers?

AWS managed services assist customers primarily by managing the underlying infrastructure. This means that AWS takes responsibility for the operational aspects of the infrastructure, such as hardware maintenance, software updates, scaling, and ensuring high availability. As a result, organizations can focus more on developing and deploying their applications rather than worrying about the complexities of the infrastructure itself.

This shift allows companies to benefit from the performance, reliability, and security that AWS provides while reducing the need for in-house expertise or significant capital investment in IT resources. Managed services also enhance efficiency by automating routine tasks, allowing teams to allocate their time and resources to higher-value activities such as innovation and customer engagement.

While reducing compliance requirements, simplifying software development, and providing longer support hours may be benefits associated with cloud services or other specific offerings, they do not capture the primary advantage that AWS managed services deliver through the management of infrastructure. These other options may be relevant in different contexts but do not represent the core function of managed services on AWS.
