As an Amazon Web Services Advanced Partner with proven proficiency in AWS migration projects, Centric can help clients get started on projects by securing funding through the AWS Migration Acceleration Program.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) Migration Acceleration Program (MAP) is a cloud migration program that speeds up a customer’s journey to the cloud by providing investment and tools to automate and accelerate execution while leveraging expertise from partners.
This funding is exclusive to AWS Migration Competency Partners like Centric Consulting. Centric’s clients receive rebates, cash funding to subsidize professional services and promotional credits they can use to offset costs during migration projects.
“We are proud to be able to secure funding to offset significant portions of the costs associated with the application modernization and migration into AWS for our client,” says Joseph Ours, Centric’s Modern Software Delivery Lead.
Centric has secured special MAP funding for a number of clients, including:
- Centric secured $15,000 in AWS funding for a nonprofit client who was evaluating a migration to the cloud. The funding covered the entire cloud assessment. AWS cloud assessments provide clients considering migrating to the cloud with a comprehensive understanding of what it means to host their business in the cloud, including total cost of ownership (TCO), cloud design and architecture, business benefits, and impacts.
- Centric secured $46,000 in AWS funding for its client Life Extension. Life Extension, a vitamin supplement company headquartered in South Florida, was preparing for a digital transformation of its IT environment. Their goal is to improve patient outcomes and accelerate the digitization and utilization of their data with the support of cloud services. The migration will allow the company to take advantage of the latest technologies in the cloud and benefit from cost savings by eliminating on-premise fees.
- Centric secured $15,000 in funding for its client, a moving, storage, relocation and logistics company. The company wanted to enhance its technological infrastructure by taking advantage of the cloud. “We are very grateful to have received funding for this project,” said the client CTO. “It will make such a big difference and allow our team to stay on track as we continue our cloud journey.” By using the power of AWS, they expect to increase the security and flexibility of their IT infrastructure and the performance of their customer-facing applications.
- Centric secured $400,000 for its client, a private business jet charter company. This company continually struggled with application performance. By migrating their applications to the AWS Cloud, they expected to reduce the size of their physical data center and operational expenses while improving efficiency and autoscaling capabilities. The secured funding helped the client migrate more than 100 on-premise applications to AWS Cloud.
