SoftwareOne Earns AWS Data Services Competency

 

The Data Service Competency involves rigorous technical validation across the full data lifecycle. It recognizes AWS Partner Network (APN) members with proven customer success and deep technical expertise helping organizations turn fragmented data into holistic, AI-ready architectures on AWS.  

 

Validation of SoftwareOne capabilities through the AWS Data Services Competency

The AWS Competency Program helps customers identify APN Partners with deep industry experience and expertise. The two categories of the AWS Data Services Competency reflect how these capabilities support customers in building modern data architectures. 

Database Services: SoftwareOne helps customers migrate, modernize and manage production database workloads on AWS. This includes supporting customers in building applications on the right type of database and running FinOps-driven modernization assessments that identify where databases can be modernized to reduce cost and improve efficiency and performance. 

Analytics: SoftwareOne helps customers extract value from their data, building data lakes and analytics platforms on AWS that turn fragmented data into insight they can act on. 

“We help customers put their data to work by optimizing and modernizing databases and building the data foundations that AI and agentic AI projects depend on,” said Gudmundur Adalsteinsson, Chief Channels & Ecosystems Officer, SoftwareOne. “This brings our total number of AWS competencies to 22, reflecting all of the different ways that SoftwareOne helps our customers innovate. 

The competency builds on SoftwareOne's existing AWS credentials, including the AWS Al Services Competency and AWS Machine Learning Competency, and its participation in the AWS Generative AI Partner Innovation Alliance. Together, they reflect SoftwareOne's ability to take customers from data foundations to AI in production.
