APN Updates – International

The global APN ecosystem has grown substantially in the last 12 months, and a good portion of that growth comes from our international APN Partner presence. We strive to provide APN Partners around the globe with the specific support they need to successfully grow their AWS-based business. To that end, we’ve added, and plan to continue to add, increased online functionality and specific APN Partner programs meant to provide additional support to APN Partners with an international presence and/or who are regionally focused.

Japanese and Chinese APN Portal Localization

We offer a number of business, technical, training, and marketing assets to APN Partners through the APN Portal, an online resource exclusive to APN Partners that your firm can utilize as you build your AWS-based business.

We’ve recently announced the launch of the localization of the APN Portal in Japanese, and we’re happy to announce the launch of the localization of the APN Portal in Chinese. Localization of the APN Portal increases the accessibility of the resources available on the Portal for APN Partners worldwide, and we have plans to continue to localize in a number of different languages in 2015.
