AWS IQ
- What it is
- A marketplace to find and hire AWS-certified third-party experts for short-term, project-based work.
- How it works
- Post a request describing the problem; certified freelancers and firms respond with proposals.
- Work, permissions, chat, and payment are handled inside the AWS console; billing appears on your AWS bill.
- Scoped, temporary access can be granted to your account for the engagement.
- Not to be confused with
- AWS Professional Services — AWS’s own global consulting organization, for large enterprise engagements.
- AWS Managed Services (AMS) — ongoing operation of your environment, not project work.
- AWS Support — help with AWS services themselves, not hands-on-keyboard project delivery.
- Exam signal
- “Small project, need a certified expert, quickly” → AWS IQ.
