May 2 (SeeNews) - HeleCloud, a UK-based Amazon Web Services (AWS) technology consultancy also active on the Bulgarian market, said it has teamed up with global IT service provider Getronics to launch a new AWS centre.
With the newly-formed techology partnership HeleCloud will support Getronics in the design, delivery and management of AWS-based solutions for their customers, through a new AWS "Centre of Excellence", HeleClouds said in a statement on Tuesday.
“In adding AWS capabilities we are adding choice for our customers, which is absolutely the right response to their interest and public cloud’s current momentum,” Mark Cook, vice chairman of Getronics Group, said.
Initially the partnership is planned to focus on Europe, servicing private equity firms and privately-owned companies, while targeting the retail, travel and transportation, financial services, and healthcare sectors.
At the beginning of 2017, HeleCloud was recognized as Amazon Web Services Authorized Public Sector Partner, becoming an official reseller of Amazon Web Services for Bulgaria, through its arm HeleCloud Bulgaria.
Amazon Web Services, established in 2005, is a subsidiary of US online retailer Amazon.
