Amazon.com Inc's cloud business, Amazon Web Services, has launched a service to help companies analyse their data and a briefcase-like product that will let them ship large amounts of data for storage on the cloud.
The company said the data analytics service, called QuickSight, is fast and easy to use by non-technical staff who want to share the analysed data.
For a standard edition of QuickSight, a customer will be charged $12 per month with no usage commitment, or $9 per month with a one-year commitment.
The shippable storage product, Snowball, is designed to let companies move huge amounts of data to the AWS cloud without having to spend a lot of time and bandwidth to transfer it over the Internet.
