Tag: Partners with AWS Qualified Offerings

We announced at AWS re:Invent 2018 updates to the overall APN program that will further recognize and support the growth, investment, and innovation of our evolving APN Partner community, and better align APN Partners to more structured program benefits. These changes include renaming the Standard Tier to Select Tier and updating APN requirements to measure each APN Partner’s knowledge, experience, and customer success.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the next phase of digital transformation, and AWS IoT Service Delivery Partners are driving this evolution. They are improving customer experiences and outcomes by choosing the best approach for the design and implementation of IoT solutions that are optimized for cost, reliability, security, performance, and scalability. At AWS re:Invent 2018, we introduced AWS IoT Service Delivery Partners in three key areas: AWS IoT Core, AWS IoT Greengrass, and AWS IoT Analytics.

Containers are an increasingly important way for developers to package and deploy their applications. AWS customers use containers as the fundamental unit of compute to deploy both existing and net-new workloads like microservices, big data, machine learning models, and batch jobs. At AWS re:Invent 2018, we announced the AWS Container Competency Program to highlight top APN Partner solutions that offer support to run workloads on containers on AWS.

The new AWS Device Qualification Program makes it easier for APN Partners to qualify their devices on AWS IoT Greengrass, Amazon FreeRTOS, AWS IoT Core, and/or Amazon Kinesis Video Streams so that customers can find and purchase hardware they can trust for their IoT projects. With AWS IoT along with our APN Partners and their qualified hardware, customers will have the intelligence needed to build new services and business models, improve products and services, and strengthen the customer experiences.

The AWS Service Delivery Program identifies and endorses APN Partners with validated customer experience and a deep understanding of specific AWS services, such as Amazon Aurora, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon EC2 for Windows. Please join us in congratulating these top 8 APN Partners on achieving AWS Service Delivery Program designations in October. Each organization follows AWS best practices and has proven success delivering AWS services to end customers.

The AWS Competency Program welcomed 25 new APN Partners in October—spanning workload, solution, and industry designations. The AWS Competency Program helps customers identify and choose the world’s top APN Partners that have demonstrated technical proficiency and proven customer success in specialized solution areas. Please join us in welcoming our newest AWS Competency Partners!

NetOps ensures the infrastructure used to support application delivery is configured for performance, scalability, and availability. SecOps ensures that applications, regardless of where they are deployed, are done so in a consistent and secure manner. F5 Networks shows how to walk through a typical application deployment utilizing the F5 BIG-IP Cloud Edition to provide a centralized point of control for provisioning, configuring, and managing F5 BIG-IP application delivery controllers.

Do you want to become more familiar with how your company can use artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) but feel a bit lost amongst the buzzwords and hype? Driving business outcomes with AI doesn’t need to be overwhelming. It’s all about exploring which business problems you want to solve, how good predictions can help you achieve those outcomes, and then taking practical steps to get there while implementing an organization-wide AI strategy.

Companies struggling with data science don’t understand the data science life cycle. As a result, they fall into the trap of the model myth. This is the mistake of thinking that because data scientists work in code, the same processes that works for building software will work for building models. Models are different, and the wrong approach leads to trouble. Domino Data Lab shares that organizations excelling at data science are those that understand it as a unique endeavor, requiring a new approach.

With Horizon 7 on VMware Cloud on AWS, customers can enjoy the agile, flexible consumption models and management of the AWS Cloud. This is great for temporary desktop and application capacity, application locality, data center expansions,POC, and disaster recovery use cases. In this post, we provide guidance on how customers looking to deploy Horizon 7 on VMware Cloud on AWS can make use of Amazon Route 53 and Elastic Load Balancing to provide greater scalability, availability, and fault tolerance.
