Pokémon Go: Amazon Web Services

The CTO of Amazon, Werner Vogels, offered Niantic, the developers of Pokémon Go, help with their constantly failing servers. As many know, Pokémon Go servers never seem to work. Right when you catch a new Pokémon, the connection is lost and so is that Pokémon. Other times, you can't sign in at all. Now, this is a big deal because Amazon owns Amazon Web Services, which is a huge provider for hosting servers. It covers a big portion of the internet. In addition, this offer was sincere. It was not poking fun and Vogels legitimately wants Pokémon Go to be stable, for his sake and players around the world.
