May 5, 2026 – CINCINNATI – CBTS, a leading North American technology services company, announced today that it has achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) Migration and Modernization Competency status for AWS Partners.
AWS established the AWS Competency Program to help organizations identify AWS Partners with deep industry experience and expertise. This designation recognizes that CBTS has demonstrated technical proficiency and proven customer success by automating and accelerating customer application migration and modernization journeys.
Lower costs, faster cycles, and applications ready for AI
Achieving the AWS Migration and Modernization Competency differentiates CBTS as an AWS Partner with deep domain expertise delivering software products that help customers embrace cloud and application transformation, reducing licensing costs, optimizing operational costs, and improving performance, agility, and resiliency. The AWS Migration and Modernization Competency takes on the heavy lifting of identifying and validating industry leaders with proven customer success and technical proficiency in migration and application modernization tooling.
“Migration gets organizations onto AWS. Modernization is what makes the investment pay off,” said Justin Rice, Chief Product & Technology Officer, CBTS. “The organizations who do both come out with lower costs, faster development cycles, and applications that are built to take advantage of AI. Our AWS competency reflects the depth of technical expertise CBTS brings to our clients across data architecture, security, and the full application lifecycle.”
Most modernization projects are stalled by data that was never structured for cloud workloads, security gaps that only appear at scale, and infrastructure that wasn’t built for what AI demands. CBTS takes clients from portfolio assessment through cloud-native migration, development, and ongoing management — helping clients build on AWS in a way that is ready for AI from the start.
