AWS Partners: Learn how to establish continuous governance and management at scale

To stay competitive, organizations must innovate faster and operate more efficiently. IT departments are under pressure to simplify their end-to-end life-cycle management, support business agility, and empower builders. However, they often must choose between governance control and business agility. Cloud IT teams and builders typically have different objectives. Cloud IT teams want governance and control, while builders want to build. Builders want the flexibility to be agile and experiment. IT teams want to provide security and governance. With a decentralized and governed approach, organizations can scale to meet the needs of their IT and development teams.

With AWS, you don’t have to choose between agility and control—you can have both. 

Governance at scale is a new concept for automating cloud governance that can help companies retire manual processes in account management, budget enforcement, and security and compliance. By automating these common challenges, companies can scale without inhibiting agility, speed, and innovation while providing decision makers with the visibility, control, and governance that is necessary to protect sensitive data and systems.

AWS offers a set of management and governance services to help your customers improve governance control and maintain business agility. When IT deploys management and governance services on AWS, they can support innovation, unclog provisioning bottlenecks, and improve their security and compliance posture. They enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs.

To make it easier for AWS Partners to achieve the skills required to help customers establish a governance framework, we’ve created training for Partners in both technical and business roles. These intermediate-level courses are designed to teach you how to help customers establish automated and continuous governance best practices.
