Amazon CEO on why cloud computing business couldn’t meet market expectations, “We could be growing faster, if not for some…”

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is facing significant capacity constraints in its data centers, limiting the cloud division’s potential growth amid surging AI demand, CEO Andy Jassy revealed at Amazon’s latest earnings call.

“It is true that we could be growing faster, if not for some of the constraints on capacity,” Jassy told analysts during the earnings call. The limitations stem from shortages of AI chips, server components like motherboards, and insufficient energy supply for data centers.
