SoftServe, a leading global digital authority and consulting company, announced today it has achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) DevOps Competency status. This designation recognizes that SoftServe provides the proven technology and deep expertise to help customers implement continuous integration and continuous delivery practices for helping them automate infrastructure provisioning and management with configuration management tools on AWS.

Achieving the AWS DevOps Competency differentiates SoftServe as an AWS Partner Network (APN) member that provides specialized demonstrated technical proficiency and proven customer success with specific focus on continuous integration and delivery, monitoring, logging, and performance, and infrastructure as code or consulting. To receive the designation, APN Partners must possess deep AWS expertise and deliver solutions seamlessly on AWS.

"Too often we see our customers' legacy systems can't offer the scalability needed to support rapid digital innovation. Without this they can't achieve dramatically faster development cycles to deploy changes quickly with far less risk," said Todd Lenox, Vice President, Digital Services & Partnerships at SoftServe. "Achieving AWS DevOps Competency is proof our experienced DevOps organization makes adoption of a collaborative approach as seamless as possible - taking full advantage of the flexibility of the cloud."

AWS is enabling scalable, flexible, and cost-effective solutions from startups to global enterprises. To support the seamless integration and deployment of these solutions, AWS established the AWS Competency Program to help customers identify Consulting and Technology APN Partners with deep industry experience and expertise.

"SoftServe continues to be a valuable partner to Avery and has enabled us to bring much needed enhancements in rapid succession to our Design & Print Online application. Their methodologies and understanding of AWS services has allowed us to grow our online business and stay ahead of the competition," said Phillip McGee, Senior Software Solutions Manager, Avery Products Corporation.
