Capgemini Announcing New Solution Partnership With AWS
Managed service provider Capgemini recently announced a partnership with AWS. The intent centers around developing a strategic initiative to expand cloud capabilities and accelerate digital transformations. Clients can increase business insights, agility, security, and cost-effectiveness to drive improvements in business performance. Capgemini and AWS will focus on SAP migrations, mass application migrations, accelerated data center modernization, AI, and machine learning.
Many enterprises struggle to meet the demands of the modern digitalized world. The economic landscape seems unrecognizable compared to 10 years ago. Capgemini found that cloud leaders build more than 20 percent of their applications in the cloud to improve speed, collaboration, and customer experience.
The first focus of the initiative will be on:
- Migration of enterprise SAP implementations to AWS to help enhance operational efficiency, allowing greater enterprise agility, cost-effectiveness, security and the surfacing of new insights to drive business performance
- Accelerated application renewal for the enterprise through mass application migration to deliver managed services and solutions on AWS and build new cloud-native applications leveraging the extensive AWS ecosystem
- Accelerated data center modernization strategies by leveraging VMware cloud on AWS to deliver an end-to-end hybrid cloud solution, to help maximize clients’ existing on-premises data center investments
- Support for European and global enterprises to maximize the top line business opportunities from GDPR, including to help meet compliance needs and use data more strategically
Aiman Ezzat, Group Executive Board member and Chief Operating Officer at Capgemini said,
“Our clients look for global scale and excellence in digital transformation, enabled by cloud technologies. With a commitment to scaling our AWS capabilities we can bring to our clients’ digital journeys both operational efficiencies and the power of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.”
Capgemini plans to build end-to-end solutions and accelerators alongside AWS. This allows them to leverage the global network of Capgemini’s Applied Innovation Exchanges (AIEs). Through this, they’ll be able to infuse automation, artificial intelligence, and machine learning into customer solutions.
