Working with an AWS Distribution Partner Helps APN Partners Build a Successful Business

Many of our AWS Partner Network (APN) Partners are looking to transform their business to cloud due to customer demand, shifting landscapes, and the opportunity to build and deliver high-value services and solutions on top of emerging technologies.

APN Partners often need support and guidance on new go-to-market (GTM) strategies and changes in financial models, such as from one-time to recurring. APN Partners also look for information on how to build skills with the right certifications and enablement, invest in the right service areas, and choose the right APN program like an AWS Competency to differentiate their business.

APN Consulting Partners such as systems integrators (SIs), managed service providers (MSPs), value-added resellers, digital marketing companies, infrastructure hosting companies, and public sector partners can leverage an AWS Distributor to resell AWS services to end customers at scale as part of a solution.

Through the new AWS Distribution Program, AWS Distributors bring increased value to APN Consulting Partners by providing operations and billing support, assistance in achieving APN program designations, and building stronger technical capability to better serve end customers.
