Solstice Achieves AWS Service Delivery Partner Status for Lambda

CHICAGO, Nov. 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Solstice, an award-winning emerging technology and innovation firm that serves Fortune 500 clients, announced today that it has achieved AWS Service Delivery Partner status for AWS Lambda. The AWS Service Delivery Program is designed to highlight AWS Partner Network (APN) Partners who have a track record of delivering verified customer success for specific Amazon Web Services (AWS) products.

The AWS Service Delivery Program was recently launched to help AWS customers find qualified APN Partners that provide expertise in a specific service or skill area. To qualify, partners must pass service-specific verification of customer references and a technical review, meaning customers can be confident they are working with partners that provide recent and relevant experience.

"We're extremely excited to be one of the first APN partners to be recognized in the AWS Service Delivery Program," said Andrew Whiting, VP of Business Development. "AWS Lambda has become a key enabler in helping our clients realize speed-to-market. As part of Solstice's modern software engineering approach, AWS Lambda is foundational in many of our client engagements, including full stack mobile application development, connected hardware experiences, and voice skills."

In a recent mobile app development project with COUNTRY Financial, Solstice leveraged AWS Lambda for COUNTRY Financial's ChorePal mobile app, which allows parents to assign chores and reward points to their children for completing household tasks.

"Lambda allowed us to quickly and seamlessly host functions on the Amazon Cloud," said Julie Robertson, Digital Manager of User Experience and Interactive Design at COUNTRY Financial. "Lambda functions execute specific routines in ChorePal's backend that power contextual features such as notifications and badging, that help keep kids coming back and engaged with the app."
