We offer customers thousands of popular movies and TV shows from Originals and Exclusive content to exciting live sports events. We also offer our members the opportunity to subscribe to add-on channels which they can cancel at anytime and to rent or buy new release movies and TV box sets on the Prime Video Store. Prime Video is a fast-paced, growth business - available in over 240 countries and territories worldwide. The team owns a global data platform that powers analytics and data science within Prime Video. Building on AWS cloud technology and processing some eye-watering volumes of relational data, our team is passionate about the security, latency and usability of our products.
