When we think of a typical AWS architecture we would assume something like the following diagram but then we realize it's just hosting a WordPress website.

We also need to meet complience requirements and maintain maximum security. That's where AWS can truly deliver value to meet our business expectations.
AWS Global Infrastructure
AWS claims to have the most secure, reliable, and extensive global cloud infrastructure that spans across 123 Availability Zones within 39 Geographic Regions with announced plans for 7 more Availability Zones and 2 more AWS Regions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and Chile.
