The Scale Factory Achieves the Control Tower AWS Service Delivery Designation
London - 27th October 2022 – The Scale Factory, a cloud infrastructure consultancy focusing on SaaS customers, announced today that it has achieved the Amazon Web Service (AWS) Service Delivery designation for AWS Control Tower. This designation recognises that The Scale Factory has proven success in developing and building interoperable and differentiable solutions, to the AWS Built on Control Tower (BoCT) technical specification. The AWS BoCT specification defines two technical frameworks; the Customizations for AWS Control Tower (CfCT) and the AWS Control Tower Account Factory for Terraform (AFT), which AWS customers and partners can use to build compliant solutions on AWS.
Achieving the AWS Control Tower Service Delivery designation differentiates The Scale Factory as an AWS Partner Network (APN) member that provides specialised demonstrated technical proficiency helping customers to codify their enterprise architectures and governance policies to meet specific regulatory/compliance and to help them achieve higher operational efficiency at scale on AWS. To receive the designation, APN members must possess deep AWS experience and deliver solutions seamlessly on AWS.
AWS Control Tower Service Ready Partners have demonstrated success building to AWS best practices, and have followed the AWS Management and Governance Cloud Environment guide (M&G CEG) to build across eight functional elements: Controls, Network, Identity, Security, Monitoring and Observability, Cloud Financial Management, and Sourcing and Distribution. M&G CEG provides guidance to implement best practices, including recommendations for AWS services and third party software solutions that help meet best practices.
“The Scale Factory is proud to receive the AWS Control Tower Service Delivery designation,” said Jon Topper, CEO. “Our team has been delivering robust solutions with AWS Control Tower since the service launched. Our SaaS Foundations package, based on this service provides SaaS teams with a foundation of good operations and security practices, all delivered at a fixed cost.”
AWS is enabling scalable, flexible, and cost-effective solutions from startups to global enterprises. To support the seamless integration and deployment of these solutions, AWS established the AWS Service Delivery Program to help customers identify APN Consulting Partners with deep experience delivering specific AWS services.
