CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CarGurus (Nasdaq: CARG), a multinational, online automotive platform for buying and selling vehicles, today announced its selection of Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS) as its global cloud infrastructure provider. Under the multi-year deal, CarGurus will leverage AWS’s proven infrastructure and portfolio of services to support product innovation and development in the online car-shopping process, which will continue to give people the power to reach their destination.

Millions of people visit CarGurus every month to buy or sell their car. By leveraging AWS’s proven global infrastructure, CarGurus is investing in a better and more innovative consumer experience.

Harnessing the power of AWS’s compute, storage, database, analytics, and security capabilities, will help CarGurus enable new product development. Ultimately, consumers should have a faster and improved experience on the CarGurus website, and internal engineering teams will have the agility to experiment and innovate to deliver higher-quality products and services.
