This business has seen a year-on-year growth of triple-digit percentages, breaking this milestone alongside its chip business.

Amazon continues to commercialize AI services through AWS along with its self-developed chips, with a historical path that includes early layouts of Bedrock and Trainium to scaling revenue realization, doubling annualized revenue from about $15 billion at the beginning of the year.
On the capital front, the company is converting large-scale capital expenditures into monetizable AI and chip revenues, motivated by capturing the explosive demand for enterprise AI, shifting resources from infrastructure construction to high-growth services.
Similar cases can be seen in Microsoft's Azure AI revenue disclosures and Google Cloud's acceleration, as current large-scale cloud providers are in a phase of accelerating AI monetization, transitioning from an investment phase to a revenue realization phase.
This essentially represents the commercialization of technological substitution. AI workloads drive the restructuring of cloud revenue, rewarding platforms that can quickly convert computing power into recurring revenue.
