DXC Technology and Amazon Web Services, Inc. announced they are expanding their long-standing relationship to help customers accelerate their journey to modern, cloud-centric IT. The companies will consult with nearly 1,000 of DXC's largest IT Outsourcing (ITO) customers to accelerate their journey to the world's leading cloud. Through moving their workloads to AWS, DXC's customers will have access to the highest levels of reliability and security, as well as the ability to increase innovation, while lowering the cost of running IT infrastructure.

Additionally, DXC, a leading Global Systems Integrator, has selected AWS as its preferred cloud provider to drive innovation and efficiencies across its organization. The company expects this transformation path will also contribute to transitioning DXC from operational stability to higher performance. As part of this multi-year expansion of their partnership, DXC and AWS will build three key strategic elements to benefit customers: Accelerated Cloud Migration and Modernization: Customers are increasingly transforming their core business platforms from on-premises environments, that are typical of legacy IT outsourcing, to the flexibility, reliability, and scalability of the cloud.

DXC and AWS are collaborating to scale their migration methodologies, solution accelerators, and combined expertise in large-scale cloud migrations. After the initial migration, DXC and AWS will continue to jointly engage with these customers to help them on their modernization journeys. AWS and DXC are collaborating to significantly expand and deepen the talent pool for cloud skills at DXC. Both companies are committing to jointly train and certify 15,000 DXC professionals over the next five years, using role-based training and learning experiences.

This underscores DXC as a leader in migrating workloads from legacy IT environments to the cloud and managing complex IT estates. Customers will have access to an expanded bench of highly trained and advanced AWS certified resources to support their cloud migration and modernization objectives.
