SHI’s customers will continue to have access to a bespoke AWS adoption experience – supported by proactive, human-based support through the company’s Customer Success Program and SHI Cloud Governance Framework for AWS.
“SHI has long been dedicated to helping all customers leverage the power of AWS to drive next-generation infrastructure strategies while optimizing IT to meet their business goals,” said Abby Karp, SHI Vice President of Customer Success. “This strategic collaboration and key investment by AWS in SHI’s success will accelerate our AWS capabilities to better support our customers’ migration to the cloud and their ability to manage their business in the future.”
Powered by AWS, the SHI Cloud Governance Framework for AWS is a combination of cloud governance tools, managed services, and agile cloud engineering that guides customers through the necessary stages of migration and then supports the ongoing management of AWS environments through actionable recommendations for managing AWS policies, IT spend, and new services implementations. It includes access to SHI One, a platform that provides customers with prescriptive guidance from SHI’s expert resources, including established security guidelines and compliance frameworks in a single pane of glass, regardless of an organization’s technical proficiency or cloud capabilities.
