OutSystems, a global leader in digital application growth, today announced the release of Cloud Accelerators for Amazon Web Services (AWS), a set of innovative components and resources aimed at driving innovation as market imperatives shift. These Accelerators, which were announced ahead of the OutSystems and AWS Cloud Innovation Summit, enable developers to use AWS in the OutSystems platform for key digital transformation initiatives.
