Celebrating Cloud9ers is MEA's leading Amazon Consulting partner


It's been quite a while since I last blogged, I think it was over a year ago! I've been taking a break from blogging and focusing on Cloud Niners my baby startup that I co-founded with a bunch of life long friends.

While many things are interesting over here at Cloud Niners, this blog post is specifically to celebrate the fact that we've just been upgraded to become an Amazon Consulting Partner. I believe this makes us the first active middle-east Amazon AWS cloud consulting partner and certainly the best :) I do hear a lot from Amazon that we are the cloud leader in the middle-east! I am quite happy that we've achieved this milestone. I'm a big believer in cloud computing, and I simply enjoy helping our clients understand how the cloud (and Ubuntu server) can help them achieve more!

My team and I do custom cloud-application development, where we write top notch html5/CSS3/JS web applications that run and make use of the Amazon AWS scalable cloud infrastructure. We also do mobile applications backends and front-end (Android, iOS). We usually use the frankly excellent Ubuntu server, unless the customer forces us otherwise! Ubuntu server is simply the best OS for the cloud IMO. Our DevOps team helps our customers migrate and run their apps on the cloud (and on Ubuntu server) at top quality!

If you've read so far, here's a Gift for you! I'm offering my (and my team's) help (up-to-24hrs) for free in the next 30-days. If you're thinking about coding a custom cloud app, or have questions about any Amazon services, I'll give you free consultation and answer any questions. Shoot me a comment over here, or contact the team. Oh yeah, feel free to share this blog post with friends, to let them have the free goodies!
