Amazon uses AWS (which is like a super-powered toy box for other companies) to run its business, not Oracle (which is more like a special kind of calculator that some big companies use).
Think of it this way: Amazon has two jobs. One is being the biggest online store in the world, that's like running a huge toy shop. The other job is making AWS, which is like building a super-powered toy box for other kids (or companies) to play with.
Oracle, on the other hand, is more like a really smart calculator used by some schools or businesses to help them keep track of numbers and money, it's not as big or as powerful as AWS.
So even though Oracle is good at what it does, Amazon doesn’t need it because AWS already helps Amazon run its business and also helps other companies too. It’s like having your own toy box and also selling really cool toys to your friends.
Examples
- A child asks, 'Why does Amazon use Oracle instead of AWS like other companies?'
- Imagine a big company choosing between two different tools to build its house.
- Like using lego blocks versus wooden bricks for building.
