Rapidly increasing demand for data modernization is helping ecosystem partners make inroads with enterprises, ISG Provider Lens™ report says
FRANKFURT, Germany, October 18, 2024–(BUSINESS WIRE)–A surge in corporate data and the need to manage and analyze it is driving German organizations to seek support from providers in the AWS ecosystem, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm.
The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ AWS Ecosystem Partners report for Germany finds German businesses increasingly consider data analytics indispensable for business success and are seeking support from the AWS Partner Network to capitalize on the data processing capabilities of the public cloud.
In the highly dynamic AWS-based solutions market, the report says implementing projects in a timely manner is increasingly important. AWS partners are leveraging automation, often supported by AI, to implement AWS solutions that help companies overcome the complexity of collecting and analyzing data with the help of data analytics and ML.
“As one of the world’s leading hyperscalers, AWS benefits from the growing customer demand for cloud solutions, with their distinct ability to scale quickly and flexibly,” said Alexandra Classen, ISG partner and EMEA lead for technology modernization. “AWS gives provider partners the scale they need to address the needs of large and midsize customers.”
AWS business partners are capitalizing on the growth of the cloud-native market in Germany, the report notes. While large companies are the most mature market segment in Germany, midsize companies represent a growing and highly attractive market segment. Providers that address both target groups can benefit from the budgets of large enterprises and the rapidly growing demand of smaller enterprises, the report says.
The AWS Partner Network is a critical success factor for AWS itself, supporting the growth of AWS adoption with advice and guidance from the hyperscaler, the report says. These partners also benefit from their customers’ adoption of AWS through follow-on business, such as managed services.
The ISG report says German organizations are more cautious than enterprises in other markets about running SAP solutions in the public cloud, as they often control important company processes. For companies that have already migrated SAP workloads to the cloud, AWS has become a preferred platform for operations. The RISE with SAP offering promotes the transition to the cloud and creates opportunities for partners that provide extensions in the AWS cloud that SAP itself does not offer.
“Enterprises are coming to accept cloud native as the new reality if they intend to stay competitive,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “AWS offers data analytics and machine learning tools that help companies tap the business insights contained in their huge data stores.”

The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ AWS Ecosystem Partners report for Germany evaluates the capabilities of 47 providers across four quadrants: AWS Professional Services; AWS Managed Services; AWS Data Analytics, AI and ML; and AWS SAP Workloads.
The report names Accenture, Capgemini, DXC Technology, HCLTech and TCS as Leaders in all four quadrants.

In the area of customer experience, Persistent Systems is named the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2024 among AWS ecosystem partners.
