A month in the past, I shared that Amazon Internet Providers (AWS) is acknowledged as a Chief in 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Strategic Cloud Platform Providers (SCPS), with Gartner naming AWS a Chief for the fifteenth consecutive 12 months.
In 2024, AWS was named as a Chief within the Gartner Magic Quadrant for AI Code Assistants, Cloud-Native Software Platforms, Cloud Database Administration Methods, Container Administration, Knowledge Integration Instruments, Desktop as a Service (DaaS), and Knowledge Science and Machine Studying Platforms in addition to the SCPS. In 2025, we had been additionally acknowledged as a Chief within the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Contact Middle as a Service (CCaaS), Desktop as a Service and Knowledge Science and Machine Studying (DSML) platforms. We strongly consider this implies AWS offers the broadest and deepest vary of providers to clients.
At this time, I’m completely satisfied to share latest Magic Quadrant reviews that named AWS as a Chief in additional cloud expertise markets: Cloud-Native Software Platforms (aka Cloud Software Platforms) and Container Administration.
2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud-Native Software Platforms
AWS has been named a Chief within the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud-Native Software Platforms for two consecutive years. AWS was positioned highest on “Potential to Execute”. Gartner defines cloud-native software platforms as those who present managed software runtime environments for functions and built-in capabilities to handle the lifecycle of an software or software element within the cloud surroundings.
The next picture is the graphical illustration of the 2025 Magic Quadrant for Cloud-Native Software Platforms.
Our complete cloud-native software portfolio—AWS Lambda, AWS App Runner, AWS Amplify, and AWS Elastic Beanstalk—presents versatile choices for constructing fashionable functions with robust AI capabilities, demonstrated via continued innovation and deep integration throughout our broader AWS service portfolio.
You may simplify the service choice via complete documentation, reference architectures, and prescriptive steerage out there within the AWS Options Library, together with AI-powered, contextual suggestions from Amazon Q based mostly in your particular necessities. Whereas AWS Lambda is optimized for AWS to supply the absolute best serverless expertise, it follows trade requirements for serverless computing and helps widespread programming languages and frameworks. You could find all vital capabilities inside AWS, together with superior options for AI/ML, edge computing, and enterprise integration.
You may construct, deploy, and scale generative AI brokers and functions by integrating these compute choices with Amazon Bedrock for serverless inferences and Amazon SageMaker for synthetic intelligence and machine studying (AI/ML) coaching and administration.

2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Container Administration
Within the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Container Administration, AWS has been named as a Chief for 3 years and was positioned furthest for “Completeness of Imaginative and prescient”. Gartner defines container administration as choices that assist the deployment and operation of containerized workloads. This course of entails orchestrating and overseeing all the lifecycle of containers, overlaying deployment, scaling, and operations, to make sure their environment friendly and constant efficiency throughout totally different environments.
The next picture is the graphical illustration of the 2025 Magic Quadrant for Container Administration.
AWS container providers supply absolutely managed container orchestration with AWS native options and open-source applied sciences to give attention to offering a variety of deployment choices, from Kubernetes to our native orchestrator.
You should use Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). Each can be utilized with AWS Fargate for serverless container deployment. Moreover, EKS Auto Mode simplifies Kubernetes administration by mechanically provisioning infrastructure, deciding on optimum compute situations, and dynamically scaling assets for containerized functions.
You may join on-premises and edge infrastructure again to AWS container providers with EKS Hybrid Nodes and ECS Anyplace, or use EKS Anyplace for a totally disconnected Kubernetes expertise supported by AWS. With versatile compute and deployment choices, you possibly can cut back operational overhead and give attention to innovation and drive enterprise worth sooner.
