Why purchase from an AWS value added reseller ?

AWS reseller is an official AWS partner however there are still a lot of organizations that don’t understand this type of partnership model very well and miss out on the best way to save on AWS costs.

Hfengyun, as an AWS Premier Partner and AWS Solution Provider, can help AWS users save money while providing comprehensive services to help customers accelerate their cloud journey. In addition to delivering reliable managed cloud services, we resell Amazon goods and services to many clients. But it’s normal for many people who haven’t yet used the services in question to shy away from deciding to buy resold Amazon products and services.

Why buy from an AWS Solution Provider? What are the advantages? Is it secure? Who owns the account with the AWS solution provider? Do they invade my privacy, these are all great questions and the subject of today’s blog post. If we don’t explain them in detail over and over again to put your mind at ease, you may be missing out on a real cost-saving opportunity. We will always be patient with you, just like our service.

1. Who owns your account?

Ownership is often a misunderstood part of the arrangement and the reason many users do not choose to utilize a reseller. When Hfengyun resells Amazon Web Services as an AWS reseller, only the customer can have an account. At Hfengyun, we put a lot of effort into gaining our client’s trust and confidence each day to secure their business.

Pay for what you use is how we price our managed cloud services to fully capitalize on the cloud consumption model. Customers of Hfengyun who buy AWS from us have the option to buy straight from AWS or move their accounts to another MSP.

Some regard the ownership problem as a vendor lock-in issue, others as an intellectual property issue, and yet others as a liability and security necessity.

By using hfengyun’s managed consumption model for cloud services, you are not locked into being an AWS reseller or MSP for hfengyun. the AWS account and usage rights purchased through us belong to the customer. As such, any intellectual property contained therein is the responsibility and property of the customer. In addition, as the account owner, the customer’s AWS account is on a shared responsibility model. However, our role as an MSP can provide significant benefits in terms of liability and security.

2. How Managed Cloud Services work

To guarantee consistency, security, and governance, MSPs usually “govern or manage” the IAM credentials for AWS accounts. We use the term “govern or manage” instead of “own” because customers must retain the ability to regain credentials and assume full responsibility for managing each account—the antithesis of lock-in. Why do customers want MSPs to manage their credentials? The answer is straightforward: just like with a managed data center or colocation facility, you own the infrastructure, but you need to hire professionals to oversee it daily to improve liability limits, security, and SLAs.

Put simply, if you, as a client, anticipate that your MSP will manage your AWS account and offer service-level agreements (including financial effect). Make sure you have restricted administrative access to your environment and know who can make changes that could affect performance or stability. As a customer of Hfengyun Managed Cloud Services, enabling us to administer IAM certificates also offers you access to our security compliance processes. Our security measures frequently surpass our clients’ capabilities.

When our Managed Cloud Services clients are onboarded, we also usually evaluate their environments and offer best practice suggestions. These suggestions support customers in achieving improved stability, performance, security, and cost optimization by aligning with the better AWS Well-Architected foundation. Our clients can choose to have Hfengyun do the fix or do it themselves. Use cutting-edge technologies and best practices for user access management to streamline the cloud migration process.
