Amazon Web Services Marketplace integration in Image Builder
Amazon Web Services Marketplace is a curated digital catalog where you can find and subscribe to third-party software, data, and services that help you build solutions to fit your business needs. Amazon Web Services Marketplace brings authenticated buyers and registered sellers together with software listings from popular categories such as security, networking, storage, machine learning, and more.
An Amazon Web Services Marketplace seller can be an independent software vendor (ISV), a reseller, or an individual who has something to offer that works with Amazon products and services. When the seller submits a product in Amazon Web Services Marketplace, they define the price of the product, and the terms and conditions of use. Buyers agree to the pricing, terms, and conditions set for the offer. To learn more about Amazon Web Services Marketplace, see What is Amazon Web Services Marketplace?
