Powering Location Intelligence in the Cloud

Combine the world's most powerful GIS platform with the most comprehensive cloud to deliver geospatial solutions at any scale — from national security to smart cities.

Strategic Partnership

Esri and AWS share a powerful strategic alliance that brings together the world's leading GIS platform with the world's most broadly adopted cloud infrastructure. ArcGIS Online leverages AWS as a key part of its cloud infrastructure, and customers can run ArcGIS Enterprise, access ArcGIS Pro via virtual desktop, and spin up preconfigured ArcGIS environments through the AWS Marketplace — all on AWS. The partnership also extends into AI, with Esri leveraging AWS AI and machine learning services to bring scalable geospatial AI capabilities to ArcGIS workflows. Together, Esri and AWS give organizations the tools to run enterprise GIS at cloud scale — with the reliability, security, and global reach that AWS is known for.
