TIBCO enhances retail capabilities in the cloud

PALO ALTO (IndoTelko) - TIBCO Software Inc., announced that it has achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) Retail Competency status.

Achieving AWS Retail Competency status differentiates TIBCO as an AWS Partner Network (APN) member that delivers highly specialized technical proficiency and proven customer success in the retail industry. To receive the AWS Competency designation, APN Partners must possess deep AWS expertise and deliver solutions seamlessly on AWS.

AWS Retail Competency Partners have demonstrated success in offering end-to-end solutions across Customer Engagement, Corporate Merchandising and Planning, Supply Chain and Distribution, Physical, Digital, and Virtual Store, Advanced Retail Data Science, Core Retail Business Applications, and Consulting Practices for Retail on AWS.

AWS Retail Competency Partners undergo rigorous validation by AWS to ensure alignment to AWS best practices for building a secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient cloud infrastructure for retail applications – to give customers an increased confidence when making decisions.

The TIBCO Connected Intelligence platform creates the foundation for a digital business by allowing customers to transform their organization by tapping the value of their data from anything, anyone, and anywhere, into real-time, actionable insights and intelligence. It is the foundation of a business ecosystem and connects APIs, apps, visual analytics, machine learning, and more. In short, it is a single platform that ensures a customer can connect, unify, and predict, patterns, behavior, and customer expectations seamlessly, both on-premises and in the cloud.

“This awesome announcement marries the appetite of our retail customers, who continually aspire to more aggressively make use of the cloud as a means to gain insights into customers, manage their data, and more effectively arm their teams with resources needed to succeed in business,” said Fred Studer, chief marketing officer, TIBCO. “Furthermore, the TIBCO team is dedicated to helping retail companies achieve their technology goals by leveraging the agility, breadth of services, and pace of innovation that AWS provides.”

No stranger to the retail market, TIBCO provides some of the world’s most innovative retailers, such as Riteway Sales & Marketing, with the platform and tools they need to gather insights into their supply chain, warehouses, stores, and consumer buying patterns. Solutions built on the TIBCO Connected Intelligence Cloud platform perfectly complement retailers’ own cloud strategies.

"Our business needed to deliver insights to sales so that they can better understand trends and opportunities at particular grocery retailers," says Elisa Westlund, vice president, marketing, Riteway Sales & Marketing. “With the TIBCO system on Amazon Web Services, I can now take my data with me in a way I never could before. Without the cloud, I wouldn't have the same interactions with our retailers. TIBCO really sets itself apart with interactive visualizations and built-in predictive modeling. You click on a graphic and subsequent visualizations show which data it affects. It's a wow factor that has set us apart as a business.”

AWS is enabling scalable, flexible, and cost-effective solutions from startups to global enterprises. To support the seamless integration and deployment of these solutions, AWS established the AWS Competency Program to help customers identify Consulting and Technology APN Partners with deep industry experience and expertise.(es)
