With Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), you can cost-effectively build your data lake on the largest and most performant object storage service, in a secure environment where data is protected by 99.999999999% (11 9s) of durability.
Amazon S3 is the best place to build and manage a data lake, and is the only cloud storage service that enables you to:
- Manage data at the object, bucket, and account levels
- Make changes across tens to billions of objects with a few clicks

With a data lake built on Amazon S3, you can use native AWS services or AWS Partner Network (APN) applications to run analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads to gain insights from your unstructured data sets. Using Amazon FSx for Lustre, you can launch file systems for HPC and ML applications, and process large media workloads directly from your data lake.
Amazon S3 hosts more than 10,000 data lakes for household brands such as Netflix, Airbnb, Sysco, Expedia, GE, and FINRA, who are using them to securely scale with their needs and to discover business insights every minute.
