Kyndryl, a global provider of mission-critical enterprise technology services, has announced an expansion of its multi-year Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS). The enhanced partnership is designed to help enterprises adopt, deploy, and scale agentic AI while modernizing core workloads on AWS.
The collaboration focuses on moving organizations beyond AI experimentation toward production-grade automation and enterprise-wide transformation.
Kyndryl and AWS have strengthened their long-standing collaboration to help enterprises adopt agentic AI at scale. The expanded Strategic Collaboration Agreement aims to support organizations in modernizing mission-critical workloads while integrating AI-driven automation into operational environments.
The initiative focuses on practical deployment of agentic AI, enabling enterprises to reduce manual processes, improve system efficiency, and modernize IT operations without introducing additional complexity.
A key objective of the partnership is to address a common enterprise challenge: many organizations are investing heavily in AI but struggling to move from experimentation to real-world production impact.
Through this expanded collaboration, Kyndryl and AWS aim to bridge that gap by providing industry-specific modernization frameworks, AI blueprints, and deployment methodologies that enable faster transition from pilot projects to enterprise-scale adoption.
As part of the agreement, AWS is investing in Kyndryl’s global workforce, which includes more than 11,000 AWS-certified professionals. This investment supports joint solution engineering, AI specialization, and industry-focused modernization programs.
The goal is to enhance Kyndryl’s ability to deliver agentic AI solutions that can automate workflows, coordinate systems, and optimize enterprise operations across complex IT environments.
Kyndryl and AWS are co-developing modernization frameworks tailored to specific industries. These solutions focus on:
These capabilities are designed to help enterprises improve operational resilience and accelerate cloud transformation at scale.
Kyndryl has already collaborated with AWS on large-scale modernization projects, including IT transformation initiatives for enterprises such as Alpitour World. These projects demonstrate how AI and cloud migration strategies can be combined to improve system reliability and operational agility.
The partnership emphasizes practical implementation, ensuring that AI adoption translates into measurable business outcomes in production environments.
The expanded SCA also strengthens collaboration in Europe, where Kyndryl participates as a launch partner in AWS’s European Sovereign Cloud initiative. This reflects a growing emphasis on data sovereignty, regulatory compliance, and secure cloud adoption across industries.
The partnership aligns with broader efforts to support regulated industries and government organizations in adopting AI-driven cloud infrastructure.
Kyndryl’s expanded collaboration with AWS highlights a strategic shift toward operationalizing agentic AI at enterprise scale. By combining cloud modernization expertise with AI-driven automation frameworks, the partnership aims to help organizations move beyond experimentation and unlock tangible value from AI across mission-critical systems.
