fyi AWS China is different from aws worldwide. It has its own portal https://www.amazonaws.cn https://www.amazonaws.cn, different set of services, policies, etc.
Many cool fancy new features on aws worldwide is not available on aws china. Some of the differences even breaks third party libraries. e.g. some version of boto.
- lostmsu 9y agoDoes it belong to Amazon.com or does it not?
- est 9y agoAws has the tech stack, the datacenter is joint venture.
- Johnny555 9y agoDepends what you mean by "belong to", from the linked article: China requires foreign companies have a local partner and restricts them from owning a controlling stake in any cloud company
- lostmsu 9y agoSo part of it belongs to.
- subway 9y agoGovCloud is isolated an a very similar manner, though still operated by AWS. CN is operated (and likely owned) by a party other than Amazon, as Amazon ownership would make the org ineligible for an ICP (as of 2014, anyway)
