Amazon's cloud unit signs deal to expand partner's global presence

SINGAPORE — eCloudvalley, a cloud solution provider with presence in the Philippines, signed a collaboration deal with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help the former further expand its global footprint.

eCloudvalley announced the new multi-year deal at a press conference on the sidelines of the AWS Summit in Singapore on May 4.

eCloudvalley is a one-stop shop for cloud solutions, including cloud consulting, cloud migration, big data and analytics, among others.

Under the agreement, the cloud computing division of Amazon would help eCloudvalley expand to Australia and UAE.

At present, eCloudvalley has presence in 10 countries worldwide, including Singapore, the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Taiwan, China, Hong Kong and United States. It has been a partner of AWS since 2014.

In the Philippines, eCloudvalley has helped improve services for AWS customers, which include Aboitiz-led lender Union Bank of the Philippines and fast food giant Jollibee Foods Corp.

The agreement with AWS “can enable our startups, SMBs, and enterprise customers to more quickly access and effectively adopt cloud technology,” MP Tsai, CEO of eCloudvalley, said.

At the same time, both companies want to accelerate the delivery of cloud solutions to startups, small & medium businesses, and enterprises by training more than 1,000 eCloudvalley employees on AWS cloud skills.

The deal also seeks to support eCloudvalley in developing a vertical specialization in manufacturing, retail and financial services. — Ian Nicolas Cigaral
