The second in our 'Journey' series of webinars, this complimentary presentation discusses the use of AWS as a development and test environment. The flexible and pay as you go nature of AWS makes it perfect for compute environments that need to be spun up quickly and disposed of when not needed, and placing this power at the fingertips of developers means you can make step changes in productivity as you progress applications through the dev/test cycle

- 25. “…AWS seemed to be the best solution available to allow a small, independent company to rapidly develop and test a completely new infrastructure, and host it. We also loved the flexibility that AWS allowed us, when spinning up smaller test environments, for beta trials, QA, localization, and during development. The low initial cost was also crucial.” Alex Evans, CTO
