With the initial program launch, Sonatype has formalized its partner benefits for Solution Providers delivering Sonatype technology and services, ranging from design support to on-premises and cloud platform integration.

Ninety-one percent of organizations have adopted or have plans to adopt a digital-first business strategy. As the digital landscape becomes increasingly dangerous and complex, software supply chain management and security is critical to the digital transformation and success of today's businesses. Sonatype is on a mission to empower every engineering team with intelligence to create and maintain secure, quality and innovative software at scale. The new Sonatype Partner Acceleration Program features an ecosystem of technically certified solution providers, system integrators, and technology alliances that share this same vision, enabling organizations to scale and secure their application development processes while propelling growth.

“Software supply chain management remains a critical piece to securing the applications our customers develop and maintain over time,” said Joey Campione, President at Opticca Security. “Sonatype’s platform continues to deliver consistent results, reliability and increases overall developer productivity, providing our customers with what they need to continue to innovate at an accelerated pace. As a strategic partner, Sonatype’s solutions and support has been integral to scaling our business, and we anticipate that the new partner program will only amplify this further.”

Sonatype partners report higher win rates, increased profits, and more opportunities to build new revenue streams. With the Sonatype Partner Acceleration Program, Solution Providers receive structured tiers of benefits that support increased time to value and customer growth. As partners grow their business with Sonatype, they have access to increasing program benefits and exclusive resources, including dedicated partner managers, co-branded marketing materials, technical support, event opportunities, and more.

“This is an incredible time of growth for our Sonatype partner ecosystem. The demand for software supply chain management solutions continues to skyrocket as organizations increasingly recognize the need to understand the open source their applications depend on,” said Bruce Gordon, Senior Vice President of Global Channel Sales & Alliances at Sonatype. “We have an outstanding community of partners from across the globe providing industry-leading services and technologies. We’re excited to now provide this partner community with additional benefits designed to increase the value and delivery speed of safe and secure open source software.”
