What is the AWS Partner Network primarily designed for?

The AWS Partner Network (APN) is primarily designed to cultivate partnerships between AWS and global businesses, which enhances the capabilities and reach of AWS services. By forming strategic alliances with various types of partners, such as consultants and independent software vendors, the APN helps these businesses create and deliver solutions that effectively leverage the AWS cloud. This framework supports partners in building their expertise and provides them with resources, training, and support to offer enhanced services to their customers.

The focus on partnerships allows AWS to expand its influence and market share while enabling businesses to innovate and scale quickly using AWS technologies. Through various programs and tiers within the APN, partners are recognized for their specialized expertise and ability to deliver quality solutions on AWS, ultimately driving success in the cloud for their clients.
