Salesforce and AWS: Driving the Future of the Agentic Enterprise

As AI-powered agents redefine the way businesses operate, strategic partnerships are playing a pivotal role in harnessing the power of data and artificial intelligence. Salesforce and AWS, two industry leaders, have taken significant steps toward building a smarter, agentic enterprise through their expanded collaboration. One year into this strategic partnership, their joint efforts are delivering transformative AI and data solutions, helping customers like Buyers Edge Platform unlock new efficiencies and capabilities.

A Partnership Fueling Agentic AI

Salesforce and AWS are aligning their AI and data initiatives to pave the way for advanced agentic systems—autonomous AI agents designed to enhance business operations and customer experiences. Among their notable achievements over the past year are:

  • Zero-Copy Data Functionality: Enabled in Salesforce Data Cloud with Amazon Redshift to optimize data sharing without duplication.
  • Integrated Model Deployment: Salesforce’s Model Builder now supports BYO LLM (Bring Your Own Large Language Model) functionality via Amazon Bedrock, empowering businesses to customize AI models tailored to their needs.

These innovations are creating an ecosystem that supports the delivery of agentic AI, enabling businesses to streamline operations and tap into new value from their data.

“By integrating data and AI capabilities across our platforms, Salesforce and AWS are building a strong foundation for the future of agentic systems,” said Brian Landsman, EVP of Global Business Development and Technology Partnerships at Salesforce. “With a majority of large companies planning to implement agents by 2027, organizations need trusted partners to help them achieve their vision of a smarter enterprise.”


Making AI More Accessible

Salesforce is simplifying access to AI technology through the AWS Marketplace, offering customers an integrated solution that includes Agentforce—the agentic layer of the Salesforce platform. Agentforce enables businesses to deploy autonomous AI agents across various operations, streamlining workflows and delivering measurable results.

Available in 23 countries, Salesforce’s presence on AWS Marketplace offers customers key advantages, including:

  • Simplified Procurement: A unified platform for acquiring Salesforce solutions alongside other AWS technologies.
  • Flexible Pricing Options: Tailored pricing structures that align with unique business needs.
  • Streamlined Billing: Consolidated billing processes to reduce administrative complexity.

By removing barriers to adoption, Salesforce and AWS empower companies to focus on leveraging technology for growth rather than navigating complex procurement systems.


A New Era of Enterprise Efficiency

As businesses increasingly rely on data and AI to remain competitive, the Salesforce-AWS partnership is setting the stage for enterprises to achieve more with agentic systems. These systems allow companies to execute complex tasks with unprecedented efficiency, maximizing ROI on technology investments.

“Our partnership with Salesforce empowers mutual customers to realize the full potential of their data and AI investments,” said Chris Grusz, Managing Director of Technology Partnerships at AWS. “Together, we’re delivering immediate, actionable insights with agentic AI, enabling organizations to automate strategically and unlock more value across their operations.”


Looking Ahead

By seamlessly integrating data and AI capabilities, Salesforce and AWS are not just building technology solutions—they’re reshaping how enterprises operate and thrive in the digital age. As agentic AI becomes an essential part of business strategy, this partnership provides a blueprint for leveraging technology to drive smarter, more agile, and more effective enterprises.
