Yes. AWS does offer consulting services through AWS Professional Services and through a global ecosystem of certified partners. In practice, most organizations work with a mix of both, and this is exactly where we at Renova Cloud step in to help you get real outcomes from AWS, not just more tools and services.

Does AWS Offer Consulting Services?

AWS runs a dedicated consulting organization called AWS Professional Services, often referred to as AWS ProServe. It is a global team of specialists who help customers design, build, migrate, and operate workloads on AWS using proven frameworks, automation, and industry expertise.

This team focuses on topics such as:

  • Data and AI, including generative AI, machine learning, and analytics
  • Large scale migration projects
  • Application and infrastructure modernization
  • Scaling and securing complex environments
  • Industry specific solutions, from financial services to healthcare and manufacturing 

On top of that, AWS works closely with AWS Partners such as Renova Cloud. AWS Professional Services and partners are designed to complement one another so that customers can mix deep AWS expertise with local knowledge and long term support. 

So the short answer is yes, AWS offers consulting services, and you do not have to choose between AWS and partners. You can use both in a single cloud journey.

How AWS Delivers Consulting Support

A team receiving guidance on cloud migration plan

AWS has created several different paths for professional guidance. They understand that a startup in Vietnam has different needs than a global enterprise in New York. Because of this, they do not force everyone into a single consulting model.

There are four main ways you can access consultation in the AWS ecosystem:

AWS Professional Services

This is the internal consulting arm of AWS. You might hear people call it “AWS ProServe” for short. This team helps customers design and build solutions directly alongside AWS product teams. They use specialized tools and frameworks to speed up project timelines. Their focus is often on large and complex transformations.

The AWS Partner Network

This is where the scale happens. AWS relies on a global community of over 140,000 partners in more than 200 countries. These partners are validated companies that advise and build on the AWS platform. Partners like us at Renova Cloud provide local expertise and long-term support that often goes deeper than a single project.

AWS Marketplace Professional Services

Procurement is often a slow process. AWS Marketplace solves this by letting you find and buy services like assessments or training directly. The charges appear on your existing AWS bill. This model simplifies how you hire help. It is great for teams that want clear contracts without months of legal negotiation.

AWS Managed Services

Some companies do not want to run their own infrastructure. AWS Managed Services is an operational solution. It handles day-to-day tasks like monitoring and patching. This is less about advice and more about execution. It raises your operational standard by using automation to keep your environment secure.

Common Areas Where AWS Professional Services Helps

You might wonder when exactly you would call the internal AWS team. Based on how they position themselves, they are often the best fit for high-stakes programs.

Cloud Strategy and Operating Models

Moving to the cloud is not just about technology. It changes how your people work. Teams often need help aligning their governance and cost structures before they move a single server. ProServe helps design these operating models so everyone is on the same page.

Large Scale Migrations

Moving hundreds of applications at once requires serious planning. This includes discovering what you actually have and planning waves of migration. It also involves designing a “landing zone” which is the secure foundation where your applications will live.

Application Modernization

Lifting and shifting old apps to the cloud is only the first step. To get real value, you often need to rewrite or restructure applications. This might mean using containers or serverless technologies. AWS consultants specialize in these cloud-native architectures.

Security and Compliance

Security is the top priority for every business. AWS experts help you build architectures that follow strict security principles. This includes Zero Trust models and industry-specific controls. If you handle sensitive data, getting this right from the start is non-negotiable.

Generative AI Implementation

AI is moving fast. AWS positions its experts to help you identify use cases that are ready for production. They help you avoid hype and focus on building things that actually help your customers or employees.

The Role of AWS Partners in the Ecosystem

AWS Partners expand the reach of the cloud. A global vendor cannot be everywhere at once. That is where partners come in.

AWS Professional Services Partners are third-party companies. We combine deep relationships with customers and strong technical skills. The official AWS overview highlights flexibility here. You can pair AWS experts with partner industry knowledge.

For many companies this choice is about practicality.

A partner like Renova Cloud offers local language support. We understand the specific business culture in Vietnam. We understand regional compliance laws. We can offer on-site workshops and face-to-face meetings. We can also offer long-term support contracts that run for years. This is different from a short transformation sprint that a global team might deliver.
