SALT LAKE CITY, April 9, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- nClouds, an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Premier Tier Services Partner, announced the acquisition of Foghorn Consulting, another AWS Premier Tier Services Partner known for its focus on cloud security, migration, and application modernization services.

Established in San Francisco in 2008, Foghorn Consulting has been an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner for over a decade and brings a highly credentialed team of cloud engineers. Foghorn's expertise includes infrastructure as code (IaC), CI/CD pipelines (DevOps), and self-healing environments, and has achieved several AWS Competency designations, including the AWS Security Competency, AWS Migration Competency, and AWS DevOps Competency.

"As Foghorn Consulting becomes part of the nClouds family, we're excited about the opportunity to grow our offerings and continue to deliver cutting-edge solutions for our clients in the cloud landscape," said Foghorn Principal Ryan Fackett.

nClouds is a leader in cloud and data migrations, application modernization, security and compliance, managed services, and DevOps. nClouds was North America's top AWS SaaS Competency Partner in 2023 based on production workloads, and has achieved 28 AWS certifications, including AWS Competency and AWS Service Delivery designations, as well as being a member of several AWS Partner Programs.

"We are thrilled to join forces with Foghorn," said Shaun Ritchie, CEO of nClouds. "This acquisition aligns perfectly with our long-term vision of expanding our capabilities and enhancing the value we offer to our clients. Together, we will be able to deliver even more comprehensive and innovative solutions to address the evolving needs of the cloud solutions market."
