Runs the largest US online store and the leading cloud-computing platform (AWS), plus ads, media and logistics.
Retail sales bring in most of the revenue, but the profit comes largely from AWS, which rents computing and storage by usage, and from advertising sold on its shopping sites. Third-party sellers pay fees for listing and fulfilment, and Prime subscriptions keep shoppers buying more often.
