Reply has recently announced a strategic collaboration agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS), a move that is a significant step toward helping organizations speed up their journey to cloud transformation, driven by artificial intelligence (AI). This partnership is a reflection of Reply’s long-term strategy for helping organizations realize the full potential of cloud computing, as well as advanced artificial intelligence technologies, on a global scale.
The key focus area of this partnership is on artificial intelligence, especially Generative AI (GenAI), which enables Reply, through its specialized companies such as Comsysto Reply, Data Reply, Sense Reply, and Storm Reply, to assist organizations in developing and deploying enterprise-grade artificial intelligence solutions, such as agentic AI for autonomous workflow, domain-specific AI for meeting specific industry requirements, and regulatory frameworks such as the European Union’s AI Act.
By combining AWS’s state-of-the-art AI offerings with Reply’s exclusive accelerators and ready-to-use AI apps, companies will be able to go beyond mere pilot projects and have large-scale production-ready deployments. This way, businesses will not only achieve measurable results but also improve their operational efficiency and capacity for innovation.
Besides AI, the partnership covers a number of key areas targeted at facilitating a complete, end-to-end cloud makeover. When it comes to migration and modernization, Reply is moving away from the conventional cloud migration methods and adopting AI-powered “migrate-to-modernize” strategies. Such strategies will allow businesses to turn their old systems into cloud-native architectures while at the same time reducing costs and enhancing performance.
Security is a very important focus of the agreement as well. With Reply’s expertise in cybersecurity, they are capable of assisting companies in integrating platform-based and Zero Trust models, merging highly sophisticated protection features that are native to the cloud, and implementing automated compliance processes adhering to frameworks like DORA, NIS2, and GDPR. Reply supports companies in revamping their old data platforms into scalable, AWS-based environments through their data and analytics services. These environments will substantially upgrade analytics and AI-ready data management models, providing companies with the ability to obtain actionable insights and support decision-making processes through data.

The collaboration further extends to digital sovereignty, managed services, and IoT innovation. Reply supports highly regulated industries with data residency and governance frameworks leveraging AWS European Sovereign Cloud. Additionally, its managed services are evolving toward AI-enhanced operations driven by observability, while IoT initiatives integrate cloud, edge computing, and intelligent systems to enable advanced industrial and connected solutions.
Reply’s track record with the partnership highlights the chain of causes and effects these combinations of cloud and AI technologies have on business outcomes. For example, with Audi, the company created DevBot, an intelligent multi-agent system capable of cloud operations automation, minimizing manual work, and speeding up development cycles. Together with BMW, Reply rolled out AI-based solutions to improve both innovation capabilities and operational performance.
“Thanks to the expertise of our specialized companies including Comsysto Reply, Data Reply, Sense Reply, and Storm Reply we are able to design advanced, secure, AI-powered cloud solutions that concretely transform our customers’ business models,” said Filippo Rizzante, CTO of Reply . “This strategic partnership agreement with AWS represents a significant step forward in scaling generative AI and cloud innovation across various sectors and geographic regions. This strengthens a relationship that continues to evolve toward increasingly integrated, high-impact transformation programs.”
“Enterprise-level AI innovation plays a transformative role in delivering growth and advancing services in Europe’s industries and public sector,” states Antonio Alonso Lopez, Director of Partner Management EMEA at AWS . “This strategic partnership will accelerate that process by leveraging sector-specific expertise and providing end-to-end solutions that drive real business results, while meeting evolving regulatory requirements.”
In the aviation domain, Aeroporti di Roma made use of an agentic AI architecture resulting in the provision of real-time, personalized passenger experiences via digital channels, which translated into better service quality and operational coordination. This collaboration on the strategic level not only adds to the list of examples but also attests to Reply‘s commitment to assisting organizations from different sectors to harness the combined power of cloud and AI technologies. Through the integration of superior AI functionalities with a cloud infrastructure that can be scaled up, this partnership will spark innovation, ensure compliance, and foster sustainable growth in a world where businesses are increasingly digital and data-driven.
