Opti9 announced that it has been designated as an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Consulting Partner in the AWS Partner Network (APN).
Opti9’ solution architects will have a direct line of communication to the team behind the AWS platform itself, as well as access to new features before they are released to the public.
The designation enables our team to help customers design, architect, build, migrate and manage their workloads and application on AWS, as well as to develop hybrid IT solutions incorporating AWS.
“Among the greatest benefits of Opti9’ designation as an APN Consulting Partner is that we are better positioned to help customers develop hybrid IT strategies to meet their specific business needs.”
-Leon Thomas, president and CEO of Opti9
Thomas continues, “Organizations today have complex IT needs. They want to reap the benefits of the cloud, but also maximize their investment in their current infrastructure. Or, they have legacy applications, compliance requirements or other issues that preclude them from moving everything to the cloud. Some have workloads perfectly suited for a cost-effective cloud service like AWS but still require a more robust, customized environment for other workloads.”
To be named as an APN Consulting Partner, individuals within the organization were required to earn specific technical and business accreditations and certifications to demonstrate their understanding of AWS services and how AWS solutions can be used to address customer business requirements.
