AWS Education Consulting Services delivers comprehensive cloud transformation for K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, educational service agencies, and EdTech companies. Our expert consultants architect, migrate, and optimize secure, scalable, and cost-effective AWS solutions tailored specifically for education workloads including Learning Management Systems (LMS), Student Information Systems (SIS), research computing platforms, student analytics, and virtual desktop infrastructure. Leveraging AWS native services including Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS, Amazon Aurora, Amazon S3, Amazon CloudFront, AWS Lambda, Amazon WorkSpaces, Amazon SageMaker, and Amazon QuickSight, we reduce IT infrastructure costs by 40-60% while achieving 99.9%+ uptime and ensuring full FERPA and COPPA compliance.
Proven Methodology Delivering Measurable Results
Our structured engagement methodology follows the AWS Well-Architected Framework across all six pillars—Operational Excellence, Security, Reliability, Performance Efficiency, Cost Optimization, and Sustainability—with specialized focus on education requirements. We deliver end-to-end services from discovery and architecture design through migration, security implementation, compliance automation, and comprehensive knowledge transfer. Our solutions leverage AWS Organizations for multi-account governance, AWS IAM Identity Center for secure single sign-on, AWS Security Hub and Amazon GuardDuty for threat detection, AWS Config for compliance monitoring, AWS KMS for encryption, and AWS Backup for disaster recovery. Each engagement includes 60-160 hours of hands-on training, detailed operational documentation, and 2-4 weeks of hypercare support to ensure your IT team is fully prepared to manage and optimize your AWS environment independently.
Education-Specific Expertise with Compliance at the Core
We understand the unique challenges facing educational institutions including strict budget constraints, academic calendar considerations, complex integrations with education technology vendors (Canvas, Blackboard, Ellucian, PowerSchool), and rigorous compliance requirements. Our solutions are architected for FERPA compliance with comprehensive audit logging via AWS CloudTrail, data encryption using AWS KMS, access controls through AWS IAM, and automated compliance monitoring with AWS Config conformance packs. For K-12 institutions serving students under 13, we implement COPPA-compliant architectures with parental consent workflows, data minimization strategies, and automated retention policies. Our team has deep expertise in education data standards (IMS Global LTI, OneRoster, Ed-Fi), identity federation (SAML, LDAP, Shibboleth), and accessibility standards (Section 508, WCAG 2.1), ensuring your AWS solutions meet all regulatory and technical requirements while delivering exceptional student and faculty experiences.
