Amazon used AWS on a satellite in orbit to speed up data analysis in a 'first-of-its kind' experiment
cloud computing division successfully ran a software suite on a satellite in orbit, in a "first-of-its-kind" experiment, the company announced Tuesday.
The success of the AWS demo has implications across the space industry, as spacecraft – meaning anything from space stations to satellites – face a bottleneck in both data storage and communications while in orbit. AWS' software automatically reviewed images to decide which were the most useful to send to the ground. It also reduced the size of images by up to 42%.
