.AWS Partner Summit 2022

At the AWS Partner Summit, Amazon Web Services partners and experts meet once a year to learn from each other, to be inspired and, of course, to network. Some experts from AWS presented a large number of customer projects that have already been successfully implemented by AWS partners in the past. One thing was clear from the start: a personal partner meet-up was long overdue.

What made this year's event unique: For the majority of the 800 participants this was their first AWS Partner Summit. This shows how the community is expanding and gaining more support across the DACH - region. The importance of highly skilled and specialized AWS partners has never been more important than before. AWS has millions of active customers every month and offers over 200 fully features services in 84 Availability Zones across 26 AWS Regions. With a revenue run rate of $74B, AWS increased the yearly revenue by 37%.

The presentations at the Partner Summit covered a wide range of topics of AWS, which is relevant for all partners, sales and marketing managers. Other topics covered included:

• Customers leveraging the AWS platform to drive innovative outcomes
• New AWS Investments in APN Programs and Training Units (AWS Certifications)
• Insights into developing a growing cloud practice with AWS
• Competitive advantage and revenue growth through cloud-based products and services

Between the presentations, the participants had the opportunity to find out more about AWS in various breakout sessions, presentations and workshops and to pick up inspirations from successful AWS projects directly from other companies.

Cloud Innovation Partner for SMB

Thanks to our successful collaboration with NEXTFRAME Corporate Film + Media on their project BAU.CAMERA, we were listed as the only partner for SMB Cloud Innovation during the keynote, which is a unique achievement and makes us incredibly proud.

The project in a nutshell: We have built a worldwide construction site monitoring B2B SaaS platform, which helped to improve their business exponentially. Our cloud-native solution is not only a highly scalable and efficient platform but also includes exciting features such as workers and license plate recognizing and blurring.

AWS Security Competency Partner

We had the honour of being listed in the keynote for the second time. But now for attaining the AWS Security Competency. To get this AWS certification a partner has to demonstrate his technical expertise on the subject and show proof through a customer success story.

We are holding the AWS Security Competency in the "Security Operations and Automation" category and have a proven track record of developing scalable solutions for customers across all industries, as well as building secure infrastructures, environments, and applications from scratch.

globaldatanet is one of three AWS Security Competency partners in the DACH Region.
