Amazon Web Services said Wednesday that it will invest more than
$17.9 billion in its infrastructure in Canada through 2037.
AWS, the cloud business of e-commerce major Amazon.com, said
that an economic impact study estimates that the company will
invest an average of nearly $1.28 billion a year to build out its
infrastructure in Canada over the next 14 years.
The company said this will support more than 9,300 full-time
equivalent jobs annually.
The news comes as AWS launched its second infrastructure region,
the AWS Canada West (Calgary) Region, which places the company as a
major cloud services provider to have an infrastructure region in
the western part of the country.
