Ava Labs CEO Emin Gun Sirer express that AWS has been an important part of the Avalanche ecosystem in the past as it has allowed DApp developers to easily launch nodes to test their software. He expects these new features to make AWS even more useful to Avalanche DApp developers. 

“It has been a huge boon for both individual and enterprise developers to be able to spin up nodes and test networks on the fly with AWS in whatever legal jurisdiction makes the most sense for them. I’m proud that we’ve implemented a protocol that can accommodate millions of participants with near-instant finality. Our work with Amazon can accelerate the positive impact of Avalanche.”

The response of the Avalanche community to the news has mostly been positive one user posted a tutorial on how to launch an Avalanche node using the new features.
