The term Amazon is used to describe the organization, company or company of American nationality in charge of electronic commerce and cloud computing services at different levels with its main headquarters in the city of Seattle located in the State of Washington. In other words, it is an electronic commerce corporation classified as the most important in the world, whose main motto is "and you're done", which translated into Spanish is "and you are ready."
Amazon was incorporated in 1994 by Albuquerque, New Mexico native Jeff Bezos, an electrical and computer engineer; but it was on July 16, 1995 when the page of sale to the public with the name of cadabra.com was launched. In its beginnings, Amazon was an online book store, but over time and thanks to its great success, it also began to commercialize other products such as movies, video games, or music CDs. After a while its name was changed to what we know today as "Amazon" due to the South American river with the same name.
This American company was one of the main companies to sell goods through the Internet. The Amazon corporation today also owns The Washington Post, Alexa Internet, Internet Movie Database (IMDb), Shopbop, Kongregate, a9.com, Zappos.com, and DPreview.com.
