Ribbon now a part of AWS Partner Network

Ribbon Communications has joined the AWS Partner Network (APN), the global partner program for AWS (Amazon Web Services). The program focuses on helping APN Partners build successful AWS-based businesses or solutions by providing business, technical, marketing, and go-to-market support.

“We are thrilled to extend our cloud leadership by joining the APN,” said Kevin Riley, Ribbon’s CTO. “As cloud innovators with multiple customers deployed in production on AWS, we look forward to deepening the relationship and developing new solutions that leverage AWS.”

More and more Communications Service Providers (CSPs) want to deliver cloud-hosted, real-time communications services from the cloud, both for deployment ease and operational cost savings. Ribbon offers advanced solutions to support these initiatives, including its cloud-native Session Border Controller Software Edition (SBC SWe). Deployable on AWS today, the SBC SWe provides fast time-to-market and enables secure, reliable, and scalable real-time communications.

Ribbon is also providing a synthetic dataset for model-training purposes in AWS’s Machine Learning (ML) for Telecommunication solution, which provides a framework for an end-to-end ML process, including ad-hoc data exploration, data processing and feature engineering, and model training and evaluation. It includes a synthetic telecom IP Data Record (IPDR) dataset to demonstrate how to use ML algorithms to test and train models for predictive analysis in telecommunication.
