Introducing Enhanced Incentives for AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP)

The AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP) has some exciting updates that went into effect on July 1, 2024. These enhancements are designed to help AWS Partners like you support customer migrations to the cloud more swiftly and on a larger scale.

Since its inception in 2016, the AWS MAP has been a pivotal element in supporting thousands of customers transitioning to Amazon Web Services (AWS). It’s a comprehensive program that aids in building strong AWS foundations, accelerating migrations, reducing risks, and mitigating initial migration costs.

What’s New in the MAP?

• Streamlined Processes: We’ve simplified the funding structure and approvals to help shorten the sales cycle.
• Scaled Funding: We’re expanding support for more migration opportunities with funding that increases with deal size, meaning larger incentives for larger deals.
• Strategic Partner Incentives (SPIs): These incentives offer additional funding for Greenfield migrations, customers transitioning from VMware on-premises to AWS Native or hybrid cloud, and modernization opportunities.

A Growing Opportunity

The cloud transformation opportunity continues to grow, with IDC projecting end-user spending on cloud to reach $1.3 trillion by 2027. This presents a $543 billion incremental revenue opportunity. With 90%+ customer workloads still not on the cloud, establishing a migration practice is essential for expanding your services portfolio.

Get Started

MAP funding is available to AWS Migration Competency Partners and partners at the Validated Stage. To leverage these new benefits and propel your business in cloud migration, start by checking out the AWS MAP Partner Funding Benefits Guide.

With these enhancements, AWS Partners are better equipped than ever to support their customers’ cloud journeys.
