Switching from a complicated product and service ordering process to a simplified approach using AWS Marketplace cut procurement time in half.

CircleCI is one of the world’s largest shared continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) platforms and the central hub where code moves from idea to delivery. The CircleCI platform processes more than one million builds a day. The company has unique access to data on how engineering teams work and how their code runs. CircleCI wanted to simplify the administration of its vendors and accelerate the purchasing process. To meet this challenge, the company moved most of its software and services procurement to AWS Marketplace. CircleCI quickly realized benefits, including simplifying vendor payments, removing complexity from its internal procurement process, and reducing purchasing timelines from three weeks to one week. “We decided to rely on AWS Marketplace as part of our procurement process. Our goal was to consolidate vendor management and contribute to the burn down of our spend commitment. We’ve started to move the larger vendors we work with over to AWS Marketplace as contracts come up for renewal. The process is simple and our support team at AWS Marketplace has been there to assist every step of the way. Our team has succeeded in streamlining vendor management.”—James Wagner, Director of Engineering, CircleCI

OneCup AI provides Bovine Expert Tracking and Surveillance (BETSY), an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered, facial recognition, tracking and surveillance platform for the ranching industry. A pipeline of interconnected AI models, BETSY monitors bovine health, activity, nutrition, and growth. Needing to scale production and save time, the company chose to procure software products from AWS Marketplace. AWS Marketplace, in conjunction with NVIDIA solutions, enabled OneCup to quickly create custom models and visual identification algorithm for each customer. Using AWS Marketplace and NVIDIA’s container solutions, OneCup reduced its model training time from hours – sometimes days – to 15 minutes. That reduction allowed OneCup to retrain its models daily at the customer level, providing the company with a “massive” competitive advantage. OneCup uses several NVIDIA products, including Deep Learning AMI, Transfer Learning Toolkit for Video Streaming Analytics, DeepStream SDK, and Triton Inference Server. “Using AWS Marketplace and NVIDIA's container solutions reduced our training time from several hours at best and days at worst down to 15 minutes, giving us a massive competitive advantage.” —Geoffrey Shmigelsky, Chief Technology Officer, OneCup AI

Genesys provides cloud-based customer experience and contact center solutions to mid-sized and large businesses. AWS Marketplace proved to be a standout option when Genesys needed to negotiate more favorable contracts and consolidate billing for application and infrastructure monitoring tools. Through AWS Marketplace and the Enterprise Discount Program (EDP), the company reduced its procurement cycle from days – sometimes weeks – to just hours, consolidated on a single AWS bill. This accelerated procurement became even more valuable when combined with AWS Marketplace private offers, which allow Genesys to negotiate directly with independent software vendors (ISVs). With private offers, Genesys retired 50 percent of its EDP commitment and simplified its billing with contracts tailored to its business needs. “Using AWS Marketplace private offers, we secured better contracts for application and infrastructure monitoring solutions that met our technical and compliance requirements. The Enterprise Discount Program allowed us to save money and consolidate billing for these tools.”

The Globe and Mail turned to SequenceShift’s Payline for Amazon Connect, which allows clients to enter payment details without customer agents seeing sensitive credit card data. Through a private offer in AWS Marketplace, The Globe and Mail was able to procure a service level agreement (SLA) based on customized pricing options. In addition, the implementation of agentless credit card payment processing has helped to improve PCI compliance and reduce risk across the organization. “With easy integration via AWS Connect, Payshield has enabled us to increase the security of our card payment processing while cutting risk across the organization. It has been a win-win at every level.”—Susan Kelly, Managing Director, IT Infrastructure & Business Applications

As a result, its EDP helps Agero achieve annual savings on a year over year basis. Additionally, with the use of the AWS Marketplace Management Portal, which provides a view into the flexible payment schedule for each product procured through the marketplace private offer program, the company has reduced monthly invoice review and approval time by 75% and realized greater visibility of cash flow. “AWS Marketplace makes it easier to do business with our vendors in everything from simplifying our licensing to streamlining billing to accelerating procurements.

Procuring and testing the model took only 15 minutes compared to a week of development effort to download and host the model on their own. “Choosing Apache MXNet’s machine learning solution was really an easy decision. Onboarding the product was equally as seamless, so that everything from procurement to deployment to testing was smooth and straightforward. We basically just flipped the switch, and it was done.” —Michael Shishkin, CTO, SiteKick

App Mastery provides businesses with strategy and technology consulting to accelerate digital transformation and improve customer experiences. To help its clients increase worker safety, App Mastery needed a machine learning (ML) model to detect personal protection equipment (PPE).

Turning to AWS Marketplace, the company found VITech Lab’s pre-trained, pay-as-you-go ML model for PPE non-compliance detection. App Mastery then configured and deployed the ML model in Amazon SageMaker with no prior experience in under ten minutes. Having saved over $80,000 with AWS Marketplace and VITech Lab’s solution, App Mastery now plans to convert other services to this procurement model. “You don’t need to have previous ML experience to get started with AWS Marketplace and SageMaker. We're migrating from competitor's solutions because of SageMaker’s ease of use and interconnectivity.”—Brinthan Yoganathan, Co-founder, App Mastery

To ensure the timely launch of its FaceMatch solution, RealAML procured GTRIIP’s Passport Data Page Detection API pre-trained machine learning model from AWS Marketplace, which is deployed in Amazon SageMaker. GTRIIP’s model eliminated the need for RealAML to develop the OCR templates for individual countries, saving the company an entire year in development time. AWS Marketplace also provided flexible pricing without minimum monthly commitments or setup costs, shoring up funds that RealAML reinvested into product development. “Using the ML models from AWS Marketplace allowed us to develop the bulk of the technology in house and be more competitive with a lower price point than our competitors. GTRIIP helped us launch 12 months earlier than if we had built the templates ourselves.”—Jordan McCown, Managing Director, RealAML
