A month in the past, I shared that Amazon Net Companies (AWS) is acknowledged as a Chief in 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Strategic Cloud Platform Companies (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 Techniques, Container Administration, Information Integration Instruments, Desktop as a Service (DaaS), and Information Science and Machine Studying Platforms in addition to the SCPS. In 2025, we have been additionally acknowledged as a Chief within the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Contact Middle as a Service (CCaaS), Desktop as a Service and Information Science and Machine Studying (DSML) platforms. We strongly consider this implies AWS offers the broadest and deepest vary of providers to clients.
Immediately, I’m joyful to share current Magic Quadrant experiences 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 “Capability to Execute”. Gartner defines cloud-native software platforms as those who present managed software runtime environments for purposes and built-in capabilities to handle the lifecycle of an software or software part within the cloud setting.
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—gives versatile choices for constructing trendy purposes with sturdy AI capabilities, demonstrated by means of continued innovation and deep integration throughout our broader AWS service portfolio.
You possibly can simplify the service choice by means of complete documentation, reference architectures, and prescriptive steering accessible 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 offer the very best serverless expertise, it follows trade requirements for serverless computing and helps widespread programming languages and frameworks. You will discover all vital capabilities inside AWS, together with superior options for AI/ML, edge computing, and enterprise integration.
You possibly can construct, deploy, and scale generative AI brokers and purposes 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 includes orchestrating and overseeing all the lifecycle of containers, protecting 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 utilize 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 purposes.
You possibly can join on-premises and edge infrastructure again to AWS container providers with EKS Hybrid Nodes and ECS Anyplace, or use EKS Anyplace for a completely 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.
