DES MOINES, Iowa, March 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Lightedge, a leading provider of managed services specializing in secure, compliant, hybrid cloud infrastructure solutions announced today that it has achieved its Amazon Web Services (AWS) Managed Service Provider (MSP) Partner Program designation for the ninth year.

The AWS MSP Partner validation recognizes AWS Partners that have demonstrated technical expertise, operational excellence, and a proven track record of delivering managed cloud services to customers. As a validated AWS MSP since 2017, Lightedge helps clients plan and design, build and migrate, run and operate, and optimize their AWS environments, supporting transformation initiatives and driving measurable business outcomes.

The AWS MSP designation is awarded only after a rigorous, third-party audit that confirms the partner's ability to provide advanced, modern managed services and capabilities in cloud architecture, optimization, and management to their client's AWS environments. The AWS MSP Partner validation is part of the AWS Partner Network, a global community of AWS Partners that leverages programs, expertise, and resources to build, market, and sell customer offerings. AWS Partners work with AWS to help customers build, deploy, and manage workloads on AWS.

"This third-party audit confirmed Lightedge's operational excellence with zero findings requiring remediation and further solidifies our focus on customer obsession," said James Roarty, Chief Cloud Officer at Lightedge. "Through the continued work with AWS and our hybrid cloud differentiation, Lightedge enables companies to reimagine their business with AWS while offering near-term solutions that drive business continuity."

As organizations reinvent what's possible on AWS, the rapid expansion of cloud-native services and generative AI capabilities has increased demand for trusted partners who can help enterprises navigate complexity and unlock value quickly. The AWS MSP Program helps customers identify trusted partners, like Lightedge, that combine strategic advisory with hands-on cloud engineering, proactive monitoring, automation, and continuous optimization.
