The AWS Competency Program connects customers with AWS Partners who possess extensive knowledge and technical expertise in using AWS technologies. These specialized partners help organizations implement enterprise-grade AI systems across diverse use cases, including enterprise knowledge operations, autonomous customer operations, content generation, and workflow optimization.

Cloudera earned the AWS AI Competency through its AI Anywhere strategy and private AI by design architecture, which enable customers to build and deploy agentic AI workflows directly where their data resides, whether on-premises or on AWS, eliminating the need to move large or regulated datasets.
