Tallence AG is an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner. This moves Tallence from Select to Advanced within the AWS Partner Network, thirteen months after becoming a Select Tier Partner in September 2025. Tallence has been delivering customer projects on AWS since 2019. Advanced Tier status now formally recognises this experience: AWS has reviewed and validated Tallence’s team, certifications and customer projects.

„To achieve Advanced Tier status, a partner must demonstrate its capabilities. AWS checks how many of our specialists hold certifications and accreditations, and which customer projects have gone live. Our customers therefore work with a partner whose AWS expertise has been verified by AWS itself.””

Oliver Bühler, Senior Cloud Security Architect & AWS Alliance Lead

REQUIREMENTS AND EVIDENCE

What is the AWS Advanced Tier?

The AWS Partner Network distinguishes between three tiers for consulting and services partners: Select, Advanced and Premier. AWS describes Advanced Tier Partners as companies with a strong team of trained and certified professionals and proven customer experience. Minimum requirements include:

  • accredited technical and business professionals
  • technically certified professionals, including at least three with Professional or Specialty certifications
  • 20 customer projects launched in collaboration with AWS
  • a Partner Business Plan agreed with AWS

The tier is therefore based on documented certifications and projects that have gone live.

WHAT YOU GAIN

What the new status means for your AWS projects

  • Verified expertise. AWS has assessed our team, certifications and projects. This gives you confidence when selecting a partner and supports internal discussions, for example with procurement or internal audit.
  • Direct access to AWS. As an Advanced Tier Partner, we use AWS resources, technical support and co-selling programmes. Questions requiring input from AWS reach the right people faster.
  • AWS programmes and funding. Advanced Tier status opens access to programmes such as AWS Managed Service Provider (MSP) and Well-Architected. Depending on the project and eligibility, AWS funding can cover part of the cost of proofs of concept and migrations.

FROM STRATEGY TO OPERATIONS

Our AWS portfolio: Tallence Cloud

We focus on secure, well-managed AWS environments. Security and governance are built into every service category from the outset, from the free AWS Compliance Check to managed services for your landing zone and Kubernetes clusters.

At cloud.tallence.com, we bring together our AWS consulting and services portfolio across five service categories:

  • Cloud Strategy: assessing your current position and planning your cloud journey, with security and governance considered from the outset
  • Cloud Migration: assessment, planning, migration in waves and handover to operations
  • Cloud Infrastructure: managed landing zones, managed Kubernetes, hybrid cloud, FinOps and Site Reliability Engineering
  • Cloud Security & Compliance: from the free AWS Compliance Check and Security & Risk Assessment to the Cloud Governance Accelerator
  • Application Innovation: DevOps, application modernisation, integrations and APIs, cloud-native development, microservices and test automation

GETTING STARTED

Two ways to get started with Tallence Cloud

Companies have different starting points. That is why we offer two equally valid ways to begin.

Option 1: Start with a conversation. You are planning a migration, a new platform or a modernisation project, or you want to hand over operations. During a consultation, we explore your objectives and current situation together and recommend the right service from our five categories.

Book a consultation

Option 2: Start with a scan. You first want to understand where your AWS environment stands. The free AWS Compliance Check uses read-only access to assess your configuration against technical criteria from established standards and frameworks, including CIS, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST 800-53, SOC 2 and the AWS Well-Architected Framework. Within minutes, you receive a report with prioritised findings for your internal review. No credit card is required, and there is no obligation to join a sales call.

FROM ANALYSIS TO IMPLEMENTATION

Where both paths meet

  • Security & Risk Assessment (5 days): Our specialists assess the findings in the context of your business and deliver a prioritised roadmap.
  • Cloud Governance Accelerator: We establish your multi-account governance using AWS Control Tower and Infrastructure as Code, including in existing brownfield environments.
  • Tallence Cloud Foundation: We operate your AWS landing zone, either through a co-pilot model within your own AWS organisation or as a full service with a single invoice.
  • Tallence Container Operations: We patch, monitor and secure your Kubernetes clusters around the clock, on Amazon EKS, in hybrid cloud environments or on premises.

All four services are also available directly through the AWS Marketplace.

Was ist der AWS Advanced Tier?

„Our customers rarely ask about partner tiers. They want to know whether we can solve their problem. Advanced Tier status provides an answer from an independent source: AWS itself.”
