How to create a timeline for AWS Services
-
Create a list of services in the AWS Services and Products List "Cloud Products", excluding services that are mainly third party products such as "~ on AWS".
-
Added the following services that are not listed in the AWS Services and Products List but are listed in the AWS official "What's New with AWS?".
AWS Telco Network Builder, Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, Amazon Kinesis Analytics, Amazon Simple Workflow(SWF), AWS Service Health Dashboard, Amazon SimpleDB, Amazon Mechanical Turk, Alexa Web Information Service
-
For the AWS services covered above, I filled in the dates when they were first announced and became General Availability(GA) by looking them up in the following AWS official What's New, AWS Blog, and AWS Document History.
