AT&T's ongoing collaboration with AWS focuses on cloud computing, security, and the Internet of Things (IoT):
• FlexWare: AT&T expands the possibilities for AWS customers to access the cloud more securely. AT&T FlexWareSM is cloud-ready and can connect to AWS directly and more securely. This will help businesses become more agile in their edge computing.
• Private Mobile Connect: With AT&T Private Mobile Connect, AWS customers can access AWS more securely from a mobile device. This will enable easy and more secure access to the cloud from wherever the end user is located, whether at headquarters, a remote branch office, or the data center.
• Cybersecurity: AT&T Threat Manager will allow AWS customers to proactively identify data patterns and threatening activity that could affect their network and cloud environment. The technology can process 5 billion security events in as little as 10 minutes. AT&T analyzes data entering and leaving a device, connection, or application in near real-time. AT&T is able to identify anomalies to help prevent, detect, and respond to vulnerabilities.
• Internet of Things: This year, AT&T introduced an IoT Starter Kit, powered by AWS. The kit allows developers to build their own solutions using AT&T's IoT and AWS IoT. Developers can also leverage AT&T's highly secure network for application-level security. Both companies are exploring options to bring AWS Greengrass to the AT&T FlexWare platform, which could open up new IoT opportunities for businesses.
Finally, AT&T offers Cloud Transformation Consulting services. AT&T advises its customers on selecting cloud solutions for their businesses. And if desired, AT&T can also facilitate the migration of their data. This is part of AT&T's comprehensive offering to advise, implement, and manage cloud connectivity for its customers.
