Andy Jassy reiterates that AWS can become a trillion-dollar revenue business

On October 30, 2026, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy reiterated on the quarterly earnings call that AWS is expected to become a trillion-dollar annual revenue business within the next 5 to 10 years, and he expects growth rates to exceed 40% in both 2027 and 2028. He also said that cash capital expenditures in 2026 will be about $220 billion, most of it directed to AWS, and will increase significantly further in 2027. On the same day, Amazon reported its third-quarter 2026 financial results: net sales rose 12% year over year to $201.94 billion, slightly below expectations; AWS net sales rose 39.3% year over year to $45.98 billion, the highest single-quarter growth rate in nearly five years. Purchases of property and equipment in the quarter reached $77.26 billion, and free cash flow over the past 12 months swung from an inflow of $14.79 billion in the same period a year earlier to an outflow of $42.36 billion; the company maintained its full-year 2026 cash capital expenditure guidance of about $220 billion unchanged. After the results were released, the stock fell by as much as more than 10% in after-hours trading.

AWS introduces new application and team permission management for QA Studio

On October 29, 2026, the AWS Machine Learning Blog published a post introducing two new capabilities added to QA Studio based on Amazon Nova Act. The first is applications: it groups test cases and test suites into application containers with owners, records CloudWatch metrics by application and environment, and provides a health score from 0 to 100, starting from the pass rate and deducting points for flaky tests, with support for two trend windows: 7 days/hourly and 30 days/daily. The second is team-based user management: it establishes five cumulative roles—Admin, Team Lead, Editor, Executor, and Viewer—where each application belongs to only one team, and permissions are managed by application rather than by individual test. There are currently no follow-up development reports.
