What does this mean for Kewill MOVE customers?
Basically a better all-around experience on the back-end, including:
Faster deployments
Flexibility in configuration
Unmatched scalability
Kewill has hosted our own supply chain solutions for customers for more than 20 years. Moving to AWS will allow us to deliver Kewill MOVE solutions that are tailored to a customer’s precise needs – and make it easier and more cost-effective for the deployment to grow along with the customer.
In addition, the move to AWS brings with it a nice egalitarian element, providing smaller organizations with the same dependability – and confidence – as the planet’s titans of industry.
“A unique capability of the Cloud is the ability to shrink a Kewill MOVE application during slow periods – a valuable cost saving function for businesses that are highly seasonal. You pay for only what you need, when you need it,” says Greg Carter, Chief Technology Officer and EVP of Product Development at Kewill.
Amazon Web Services dominates the Cloud Infrastructure as a Service market, with a 28 percent share.
“AWS is a thought leader,” Gartner reported in its latest Magic Quadrant report for IaaS.
“It is extraordinarily innovative, exceptionally agile, and very responsive to the market. It has the richest array of IaaS features and PaaS-like capabilities. It continues to rapidly expand its service offerings and offer higher-level solutions.”
Kewill is the latest in a growing number of companies to move to AWS, joining the likes of Netflix, Expedia, Dow Jones, Major League Baseball, Spotify, and Pinterest.
