In addition, AWS recently completed an agreement with the National Weather Service to provide real-time weather information to support homeland security.

"We wanted to work with a bank that has technology expertise and the ability to provide creative, flexible financial solutions," said Dan O'Connell, AWS's vice president of Finance and Administration. "We've established AWS as a dominant technology company in the field of weather, so we now look to expand our reach into new markets, and this credit facility will help us do that."
