Built from the ground up for the cloud, AWS QuickSight’s Super-fast, Parallel, In-memory, Calculation Engine (SPICE) uses a combination of columnar storage, in-memory technologies enabled through the latest hardware innovations, machine code generation, and data compression to allow users to run interactive queries on large datasets and get rapid responses. SPICE supports rich calculations that help customers derive valuable insights from their analysis without ever having to worry about provisioning or managing infrastructure.
SPICE automatically replicates data for high availability and also enables AWS QuickSight to scale to thousands of users who can all simultaneously perform fast interactive analysis across a wide variety of AWS data sources.

Many organizations are going or have gone the AWS route and have recognized the benefits already. AWS QuickSight allows a seamless integration with other toolsets on the AWS platform, as well as limitless and immediate scalability.
