Tech Data has new strategic collaboration agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS). Through the agreement, Tech Data and AWS aim to jointly invest in resources and expertise focused on enabling companies to accelerate their own digital business transformations and offer an enhanced range of AWS cloud computing services to small and medium-sized business (SMB) end customers across Europe.
This multi-year agreement will see the distributor create dedicated local AWS sales and technical teams in each of its countries in Europe. The distributor’s StreamOne platform for cloud subscriptions, renewals and billing will play a central role and it will implement AWS-specific enablement paths – including business maturity assessment, training and solution development – that will provide partners with the tools, knowledge and resources in order to quickly accelerate their AWS cloud practices.
The collaboration is already live in UK, Italy, Turkey, and Spain and will roll out across the rest of Tech Data’s European footprint in the coming quarters.
Patrick Zammit, president, Europe, at Tech Data said: “This is a ground-breaking and transformative agreement. AWS and Tech Data’s shared goal is to digitally empower SMBs across the region, helping them grow and innovate faster and better serve their customers. Our collaboration enables end-customers to realize the benefits of AWS, including improved security, cost-efficiency, reliability, innovation, and accelerated time-to-market thanks to pre-packaged solutions provided by the Tech Data Cloud Solutions Factory for AWS.”
