The annual Global Partner Summit was held Dec. 2-6 at AWS re:Invent 2019, and we are excited to introduce the APN’s new program launches and key initiatives for 2020. Global Partner Summit helps APN Partners to leverage AWS technologies and learn how the APN program can help companies build, market, and sell their AWS-based offerings. This post will showcase the new APN programs that partners can take advantage of today, including AWS Service Ready and the APN Global Startup Program.

Finding the most qualified and experienced partners can be time-consuming for retailers, and may not always lead to the best partners for their cloud adoption journey. To assist retailers with this search, the APN launched the AWS Retail Competency. This designation helps retailers find top APN Partners with highly specialized solutions and consulting practices that offer retail technology and services that are powered and vetted by AWS.

First responders, public safety agencies, disaster response organizations, hospitals, schools, and cities are facing a growing number of challenges in resiliency planning. With the new AWS Public Safety & Disaster Response Competency, AWS customers can identify top APN Consulting Partners that can identify, build, and implement technology offerings that improve organizational capacity to prepare, respond, and recover from emergencies and disasters.

We are thrilled to be in Las Vegas for AWS re:Invent 2019 and our annual Global Partner Summit, meeting and connecting with APN Partners from around the world.

Launched in 2018, the PTP help APN Partners and AWS Public Sector Partners accelerate the transformation

Advances in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) have made smart factories a reality through the application of AI and cloud computing technologies. In this post, explore how EXOR International’s systems-on-module (SOM) and edge gateways, powered by Intel’s Cyclone V FPGA, allow system integrators and application builders to deliver AWS-based IIoT solutions with faster time-to-market, lower total cost of ownership, and reduced development efforts.

SynchroNet uses the End User Computing Adoption Framework (EUCAF) as a proven approach to providing customers with a clear path to analyze, design, deploy, automate, and operate their Amazon WorkSpaces, AWS AppStream 2.0, or virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) on AWS at scale.

With the recent launch of AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) session tags, customers can simplify fine-grained access to Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources by using attributes from their own corporate directories in permissions rules. Enterprise customers frequently manage their workforce identities (the “who”) using an identity provider (IdP) such as PingFederate or PingOne for Enterprise by Ping Identity.

With the proliferation of cost-effective storage options such as Amazon S3, there should be no reason you can’t keep your data forever, except that with this much data it can be difficult to create value in a timely and efficient way. MongoDB’s Atlas Data Lake enables developers to mine their data for insights with more storage options and the speed and agility of the AWS Cloud. It provides a serverless parallelized compute platform that gives you a powerful and flexible way to analyze and explore your data on Amazon S3.
