Press release
Rivian Selects AWS as Its Preferred Cloud Provider to Drive Efficiency, Performance, and Refinement of Electric Vehicles


December 2, 2021 at 9:00 AM EST

Automaker uses breadth of AWS capabilities to aid vehicle engineering and deliver connected services, over-the-air software updates, and fleet management solutions at scale

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 2, 2021-- Today, Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company (NASDAQ: AMZN), announced that electric vehicle maker Rivian (NASDAQ: RIVN) has selected AWS as its preferred cloud provider, deepening the companies’ existing relationship. Across its enterprise, the automaker applies AWS capabilities in analytics, compute, containers, and machine learning to help streamline its business and improve the performance of its customers’ electric vehicles—for battery range, driving experience, and owner experience—while simultaneously innovating the technological foundations for customers’ electric vehicle fleet management and more efficient vehicle charging. Rivian applies these innovations across its vehicle lines, including custom-built electric delivery vans (EDVs) for Amazon.com. Through these developments, Rivian aims to accelerate the consumer and commercial shift to electric vehicles and make transportation cleaner and more sustainable in accordance with its goals under The Climate Pledge.

Of course! Not sure if this particularly interesting to anyone else, but there was a Rivian talk at an AWS conference last year.

Decrease time to market!

I am curious to see if I see TV suggestions on my amazon account if I talk about TVs with my wife on a road trip.

The more important question is; do we get the shipping free if we order R1T or R1S through Amazon?

I thought, with absolute certainty, they would be using Apple iCloud... ????

Well there was always a chance since this isn't considered a "work" truck

On one hand it was obviously expected and on the other hand I'm half surprised Rivian isn't trying to make their own cloud service since they want to control the entire Rivian ecosystem!

(obviously a joke in case someone thought I honestly believed they'd try and create their own cloud service)

One step closer to getting my Amazon R1T next year!

Maybe name will change to JB1T in honor of "the man."

The real question is how long before we can just order an R1T on Amazon?
