Choosing the best AWS service provider
Once you decide that you want to partner with an AWS service provider, you need to sit down and list exactly what it is that your business needs. Once you know exactly what you want, it is easier to match it with the services provided by an AWS Consulting Company and choose the one that best fits your requirements.
The following are a few things to consider while choosing your AWS service provider
Certification – Amazon itself has come up with different certifications for AWS service providers. The certifications are a testament to the expertise of the AWS service provider to handle all things related to AWS.
One-stop-shop – AWS offers almost 90 services that cover designing, building, migration, storage, analytics, monitoring, networking, database management, etc. It is better to partner with an MSP who provides all the services that you need rather than working with 2 or more of them.
Amazon Partner Network (APN) – Amazon publishes an updated list of its premium partners. These partners know the ins and outs of AWS down to the last detail. Also, those AWS service providers who are part of the APN offer most of the key AWS services. So choose your AWS service provider from this list of Amazon Partners.
After-sales support, technical support, and communication channel – Do they support your business throughout the lifecycle of the AWS? Do they have a tech support team who is available on call? Do they have a dedicated point of contact for reporting all your issues? These services are going to come in handy post-migration and it is good to consider them while choosing your AWS service provider. l4it is Best AWS Services in Chicago | Illinois.
