Tag: AWS Partner Guest Post

From a wide range of AWS Partner success stories to new partner programs launched at AWS re:Invent, here’s a look at the most popular APN blog posts and case studies we shared in 2023. The AWS Partner Network (APN) is a global community that leverages AWS technologies, programs, expertise, and tools to build solutions and provide services for customers. Together, partners and AWS provide innovative solutions, solve technical challenges, win deals, and deliver greater customer value.

Belden Inc. collaborated with AWS and Matterport to create a digital twin at its Richmond manufacturing facility. By capturing the plant environment with Matterport’s 3D camera and integrating sensor data through AWS IoT Core, they built a virtual representation of the assembly line. The digital twin enables Belden to gain insights, optimize operations, and improve asset performance in areas like employee training and preventative maintenance.

SAP customers are integrating non-SAP applications and machine learning models to improve business strategies. Solutions like Syntax CxLink and Amazon Forecast can connect SAP systems to AWS services to provide insights for supply-demand planning, sales, and automation requirements. This post shows how Syntax CxLink transfers SAP data like sales orders and inventory transactions to Amazon Forecast, which uses algorithms to create highly accurate demand forecasts.

Kyndryl built an AI solution on AWS to detect pores in welding using acoustic data and a custom algorithm with voltage data. It’s an end-to-end solution that collects data from welding machines, processes it at the edge to detect pores, and streams it to the AWS cloud for historical analysis. Kyndryl’s pore detection solution on AWS increases quality and optimizes manufacturing, improving defect detection accuracy while increasing efficiency and reducing rework costs and customer churn.

Kubernetes security is often approached in a fragmented way, separating build time, runtime, and infrastructure security. An interconnected security approach is essential, acknowledging relationships between build, runtime, and infrastructure. Cloudanix enables this through end-to-end integration, from build time image scanning to runtime threat monitoring, strengthening security posture by reducing attack surface, enhancing compliance, and empowering swift response.

Many AWS customers using SQL Server for analytics seek to migrate to Amazon QuickSight, a cloud-native business intelligence that provides interactive dashboards and charts unmatched by SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). IPsense developed a tool to accelerate migrating SSRS reports to QuickSight which automates converting SSRS queries and stored procedures into AWS Glue jobs that populate a cloud data lake.

The interest in cloud streaming for interactive applications is at an all-time high across a diverse range of industries, driven by cross-sector trends that have elevated the topic to boardroom agendas. Learn why the release of ZeroLight’s OmniStream product is an exciting opportunity for brands to unlock the full potential of cloud streaming for their applications. Over 50 million minutes of interactive cloud streaming have already been delivered through the platform.

Cloud data storage has reduced costs but created data integration challenges. As a data integration pattern, extract, transform, load (ETL) processes are falling short, as they can be time-consuming and brittle. Denodo’s data virtualization platform simplifies integration by creating a unified logical layer, eliminating ETL. Combined with AWS services, Denodo enables agile, real-time decisions without moving data while accelerating time-to-insight.

Kubecost provides granular visibility into Kubernetes cluster costs on AWS, enabling easy comparison with AWS Cost Explorer. This post guides users through validating Kubecost cost data against AWS billing, troubleshooting discrepancies, and ensuring complete resource discovery. It covers aggregating costs in Kubecost dashboards, filtering to compare specific assets, reconciling adjusted pricing, and using CSV exports for programmatic validation.

As enterprises migrate to the cloud, advanced cybersecurity solutions are essential to prevent sophisticated attacks. Trellix’s virtual intrusion prevention system (vIPS) integrates with AWS Gateway Load Balancer to provide real-time threat detection and prevention. Utilizing techniques like behavioral analysis and signatureless detection, Trellix vIPS helps secure VPCs against evolving threats. As an AWS Specialization Partner, Trellix enables resilience against cyberattacks for customers’ cloud environments.
