Partners are critical to the continued success and growth of the Public Sector (WWPS) business of AWS. Partners include Independent Software Vendors (ISV), Systems Integrators(SI) and Manager Services. In my current role as a Partner Solutions architect at AWS India, I am responsible for establishing technical credibility during sales cycles driven by partners for sell-to as well as sell-through motions. My areas of focus are MAP (migration acceleration program), Well Architected Review program, Cloud Security (WAF, GuardDuty, KMS, CloudHSM, Security Hub, Data security)I understand the partner’s broader positioning in the channel and use this to lead strategic conversations and influence partner’s AWS partnership and technical capability investment. I also focus on technical and business decision makers (practice leads) to drive capability development and investment in transformation of legacy operating models. Combining business acumen with technical skills, I work with customers to architect solutions to significantly complex problems with measurable, long-term positive impact on their business. For example, replicable plays, automation, and 1-click deployments. I have enabled and guided multiple MSP, ISV and SI partners to achieve AWS competencies and land their own software solutions on AWS platform. I have published blogs addressing real world problems that our customers face while building on AWS:https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/publicsector/build-aadhaar-data-vault-aws/https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/desktop-and-application-streaming/how-to-use-automation-to-optimize-and-control-cost-of-amazon-appstream-2-0/
