At AWS, builders often ask how we support the open source projects and communities that our services are built upon. They want to know because the long-term viability of their business applications also depends on open source projects.

We also offer managed open source services such as Amazon Relational Database Service (MariaDB, MySQL and PostgreSQL), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Services (Amazon EKS), Amazon OpenSearch Service and Amazon Managed Service for Kafka (MSK). Managed open source services make it easier for customers to set up and operate open source projects on AWS.

When we contribute upstream, we’re also doing well by AWS because we’re delivering innovation to our customers and the broader open source community.
