AWS delivery built around the workload, not the service catalog.

Ampity designs, modernizes, and operates AWS workloads with architecture, reliability, security, cost, and handoff considered as one production system.

AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner

Ampity designs, modernizes, and operates AWS workloads with architecture, reliability, security, cost, and handoff considered as one production system.

Read the announcement

A useful signal, with a clear boundary.

What it establishes

AWS describes Advanced Tier Services Partners as organizations with a strong team of trained and certified technical people and proven customer experience.

For a buyer, the useful signal is an established AWS practice that can connect platform guidance to architecture, modernization, delivery, and operations.

Ampity also holds separate AWS Service Delivery designations for AWS Transfer Family, Amazon ECS, and Amazon RDS. These identify service-specific delivery experience within the broader partner practice.

What still has to be proved

A partner tier does not decide whether AWS is the right platform for every workload.

A service designation does not replace discovery, architecture review, security review, performance testing, or customer acceptance.

Production readiness is demonstrated through customer-specific evidence, not by displaying a badge.

A clearer modernization boundary

The estate is separated into what should move, what should change, and what should stay stable. This prevents a migration from quietly becoming an uncontrolled rewrite.

Controls designed with the platform

Identity, infrastructure as code, observability, release safety, recovery, and cost ownership enter the design before launch.

Service-specific delivery depth

Transfer Family, ECS, and RDS designations support focused conversations about managed file transfer, container platforms, and relational data workloads.

An operable handoff

Runbooks, decision records, dashboards, recovery procedures, and ownership boundaries remain with the customer team.

Validated AWS delivery, service by service.

AWS Transfer Family Delivery

Managed file-transfer work where protocol compatibility, identity, security, storage integration, audit, and replay must work together.

Amazon ECS Delivery

Container platforms where deployment safety, networking, scaling, observability, security, and rollback matter beyond the first release.

Amazon RDS Delivery

Relational data workloads where migration, availability, performance, backup, recovery, and cost have direct production consequences.

What the credential should help a buyer verify

The credential is context. The delivery decision becomes defensible when the workload constraints, platform judgment, tested risk, and customer evidence stay connected.

Name the production pressure

Availability, migration risk, security, performance, data movement, team capability, and cost become explicit.

Choose the AWS boundary

The team decides what AWS should own, what remains application responsibility, and where risk must be controlled.

Test the risky path

Migration rehearsals, load tests, recovery exercises, policy checks, release gates, and observability test the design.

Leave an operable system

Dashboards, runbooks, decision records, cost views, recovery procedures, and ownership remain with the customer.

The result is not simply an AWS deployment. It is a system whose tradeoffs, controls, and operating responsibilities can be inspected and continued by the customer.

Where Ampity brings the platform into the work.

Cloud architecture and modernization

Assess the estate, define the change boundary, record material tradeoffs, and sequence modernization around business continuity.

Target-state boundary, dependency map, decision record, migration sequence

Amazon ECS platforms

Design container runtime, deployment, networking, scaling, observability, secrets, and rollback as one operating path.

Platform baseline, release controls, dashboards, recovery test

Amazon RDS workloads

Plan database selection, migration, availability, performance, backup, failover, and ownership around workload behavior.

Migration rehearsal, performance baseline, recovery evidence, operating thresholds

AWS Transfer Family workloads

Connect protocols, identities, storage, encryption, audit logs, and downstream processing without creating an unmanaged boundary.

Access model, transfer controls, audit path, failure and replay procedure

Reliability, observability, and FinOps

Make availability, latency, failure, demand, ownership, and cost visible through the same operating evidence.

Service objectives, telemetry map, cost allocation, alerts, review cadence

Infrastructure and delivery automation

Make environments repeatable and change safer through versioned infrastructure, policy checks, release gates, and approvals.

Infrastructure code, pipeline evidence, change record, rollback path

One delivery path. Evidence at every stage.

Assess the current system

Map workloads, dependencies, failure modes, data boundaries, security constraints, cost drivers, and ownership.

Current-state evidence and a prioritized decision register

Design the operating boundary

Select services against measurable requirements and make availability, recovery, identity, observability, and cost explicit.

Architecture decisions and an acceptance plan

Build and migrate safely

Automate infrastructure and releases, validate data and integration paths, and rehearse the changes carrying the highest risk.

Working increments with release, security, and migration evidence

Prove and hand over

Exercise failure and recovery, confirm service objectives and cost visibility, and transfer operating context.

Runbooks, dashboards, recovery results, and ownership handoff

Begin with the decisions the system must survive.

What does Advanced Tier status establish?

It establishes an AWS-recognized partner tier based on technical capability and proven customer experience. It does not certify a future customer architecture.

How are the AWS service designations relevant?

They indicate validated delivery experience for Transfer Family, ECS, and RDS. Ampity uses that depth where those services match the workload.

What should we see before accepting the work?

Expect explicit decisions, tested migration and recovery paths, release and security evidence, dashboards, cost visibility, and clear ownership.

Can Ampity work with an existing AWS team?

Yes. The engagement can strengthen an internal team through review, platform foundations, migration, reliability work, or focused service support.
