Sharing at the event, Julian Lau, Public Sector Emerging Markets Development manager at AWS said that when schools switch to online learning during the pandemic, using online attendance systems or streaming a video lecture means the student has used cloud computing. Cloud computing is the backend infrastructure, supporting many apps and platforms such as Zoom, Netflix, and Twitch.

Besides commercial companies, cloud computing is also widely used in the public sector such as educational institutions, government agencies, and healthcare organisations which use cloud technology to solve public challenges and build a framework for smart city development.

“We provide students with the opportunity to experience cloud computing and use it to make a positive impact on the community with the power of technology,” said Lau. “As a result, AWS is excited to announce the launch of ‘Build On, Vietnam 2021’, a competitive exam that challenges students to create technological innovations and solutions to address the challenges which the sponsors are facing. We hope students will utilise services from virtual machines, IoT, AI, machine learning, and databases to create innovative solutions that can contribute to the digitisation of cloud computing in Vietnam with AWS,” he added
