Does anyone know the reason for the prefixes in the AWS product names?<p>Almost 30% of the services are under 'A' when viewed in the AWS console's 'Services' > A-Z tab
Quoting from a SO answer[0]<p>The pattern is that utility services are prefixed with AWS, while standalone services are prefixed by "Amazon".<p>Services prefixed with AWS typically use other services.<p>Not 100% accurate either, but only Amazon knows.<p>[0]: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/33134738" rel="nofollow">https://stackoverflow.com/a/33134738</a>
