Elastic is a recipient of a U.S. AWS Rising Star Partner of the Year Award, recognizing Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partners in the U.S. playing a key role helping customers drive innovation and build solutions on AWS.

Announced during the AWS Partner Summit in New York City on July 25, 2023, the AWS Partner Awards recognize AWS’ Top Partners of the Year and Rising Star Partners of the Year, whose business models have embraced specialization, innovation, and collaboration over the past year. AWS Partner Awards recognize AWS Partners whose business models continue to evolve and thrive on AWS as they work with customers.

A panel of AWS experts selected the winners based on objective criteria and audited by a third-party vendor. Elastic received the award for the significant growth of shared customer transactions in AWS Marketplace, continuous work on AWS integrations, and 376% YoY customer engagement.

Elastic has built multiple integrations on AWS to help companies drive innovation, leverage cloud-optimized features, streamline data collection from AWS services, and modernize and migrate their existing environments.

In addition, Elastic’s recently expanded relationship with AWS, achievement of the AWS Security Competency designation, and being a complete Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) for AWS makes it easier for businesses to leverage Elastic Cloud on AWS to accelerate their cloud adoption journey, confident of their ability to collect, analyze, secure and scale data across their AWS data sets.

“We’re honored to receive the AWS Rising Star Partner of the Year Award, which reflects our deepened relationship to create better outcomes for customers who want to accelerate their cloud journey without sacrificing the ability to leverage all their data securely,” said Ken Exner, chief product officer, Elastic. “As Elastic accelerates its cloud-first innovation, working with AWS will help us optimize, streamline and modernize how customers leverage the cloud and take advantage of new generative AI capabilities.”

The AWS Partner Network (APN) is a global program focused on helping partners build successful AWS-based businesses or solutions by providing business, technical, marketing, and go-to-market support. The APN includes independent software vendors (ISVs) and systems integrators (SIs) worldwide, with AWS Partner participation growing significantly during the past 12 months.

To provide an easy path to get started, customers can deploy Elastic (Elasticsearch) directly from the AWS Marketplace by taking advantage of a seven-day free trial and quickly spin up a deployment in minutes on any of the AWS Regions worldwide.
