StackGen has partnered with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to bring its platform to the Google Cloud Marketplace.
Pegasystems announced new enhancements to Pega Partners – the Pega program dedicated to qualifying partners to help clients rapidly accelerate their digital transformation initiatives when working with skilled partners.
The updates to the program will provide clients with greater choice of partner capabilities in how they extend, expand, and evolve their Pega Platform™ investments.
With this strengthened program, clients will be able to quickly identify partners with skills and capabilities that will allow them to achieve their required outcomes, as a result of:
- Enhanced Program Design: The program design has been streamlined to provide a best-in-class approach to supporting partner investments in skills development and capabilities that drive delivery excellence in client outcomes. This approach does not require or elevate Pega Partners based upon their selling results, but focuses instead on ensuring the success of their services with each client.
- New Specializations: The existing Partner Specializations program will be expanded to guide clients in Pega's focus industries so they can identify the right partner for their needs. This includes support for the financial services, insurance, communications, and media industries, as well as a new combined healthcare and life sciences Specialization. In addition, process mining will be offered as a new Pega offering Specialization.
- Enhanced Pega Marketplace: The Pega Marketplace has been updated with new offerings, bringing the total to over 200 accelerators and connectors that have been verified by Pega. In addition, new expanded offering overviews and feature sets have been introduced to improve the user experience, with a new structure, and content aimed at providing clients a better understanding of available options. This catalog of offerings represents a fast start opportunity for our clients to reuse development investments already made and tested by Pega and its partners.
The enhancements to Pega Partners will be available from January 1, 2024.
