Today, Snyk joins AWS as a launch partner in the AWS Pattern Partners program, an invite-only initiative that works with a select cohort of consulting partners to define how enterprises adopt next-generation AI and emerging technologies on AWS.

As a Pattern Partner, Snyk brings proven success with emerging technologies on AWS, including AI/ML and Generative/Agentic AI with the Snyk AI Trust platform. The program focuses on accelerating enterprise adoption through repeatable, scalable patterns that encode tested ways to solve specific business problems, with architecture, controls, and delivery practices that have already been validated with customers.

For customers, the selection of Snyk into this program signals that AWS has reviewed and endorsed both the outcomes and the operating model behind the work delivered in these domains. Enterprises that face pressure to modernize critical processes, adopt AI safely, and respond to new regulatory and security requirements gain access to patterns that have already delivered measurable results.

Pattern Partners also set a clear horizon view for emerging technology. In the near term, it concentrates on AI/ML, Generative & Agentic AI patterns, including sub-domains such as Process to Agent(P2A), Agent to Agent(A2A), Responsible AI, and RegAI. Over the midterm, the program extends these capabilities into connected environments that use Robotics, IoT, and Edge and Space Technology on AWS. For the long term, it explores Quantum and next-generation enterprise innovations, aligning new capabilities with existing AWS investments in data, AI, and security as they mature into reliable patterns.

Our pattern: Snyk Studio

At the heart of the participation of Snyk in Pattern Partners is a flagship pattern that the company is co-developing and scaling with AWS. 

The customer problem

Organizations in financial services, technology, and information technology face a common set of challenges. Data and workflows sit in disconnected systems, which slows AI adoption and creates duplicated effort. Teams find it difficult to govern AI models and agents at enterprise scale, particularly as nearly half of AI-generated code contains security risks and regulations, and internal standards evolve quickly.

Talent and process gaps make it hard to adopt new technology in a way that satisfies risk, compliance, operational, and security leaders. Customers need a clear, repeatable path to preventing AI-generated risk and remediating vulnerabilities to move from pilots to production with greater speed, control, and confidence in their code security posture.

Our joint approach with AWS

Together with AWS, Snyk has designed Snyk Studio for Kiro, which integrates Snyk's security intelligence directly into Kiro's agentic IDE. This pattern embeds security at inception and intelligent remediation into spec-driven development, combining an architecture that enables AI-driven innovation, an operating model with clear roles, runbooks, and guardrails for IT, data, security, and development teams, and accelerators such as pre-built integrations, automations, policies, templates, dashboards, and agents.

Snyk Studio transforms this architecture into action by embedding security directly into Kiro’s agentic workflow. With Secure at Inception, we guide Kiro to generate secure code from the very first prompt. For legacy code, Snyk’s Intelligent Remediation insights empower Kiro agents to autonomously fix existing security debt. This ensures AWS customers can embrace the speed of spec-driven development without inheriting new risks, making security an invisible accelerator rather than a gatekeeper.

This pattern is being refined through a time-boxed incubation with a set of lighthouse customers. As it matures, it is packaged as a Pattern Package so that more joint customers can adopt it rapidly with consistent results.

Early results

Early adopters are reporting tangible outcomes from Snyk Studio. Time to first value often falls below two weeks in initial implementations. Customers see a roughly 70 percent increase in automated vulnerability remediation when in cycle time for critical workflows once the pattern reaches production. Many teams also report improved accuracy, stronger compliance posture, or higher developer and analyst productivity, supported by telemetry from shared dashboards.

For example, in one project with a global manufacturer, Snyk Studio reduced order-to-cash cycle time by 50% while keeping existing quality and control thresholds in place. This type of concrete result shapes how the pattern evolves and which use cases are prioritized next.

As these results are validated across additional lighthouse customers, the Pattern Package becomes available to AWS field teams globally. This enables customers in new regions and sectors to benefit from the same proven approach without restarting design from the beginning.

How the Pattern Partners program works with customers

When a customer engages Snyk Studio through the Pattern Partners program, the engagement starts from a proven blueprint, not from scratch. The Pattern Package already encodes successful implementations, including architectures, guardrails, and playbooks. Customers receive coordinated support from AWS specialists, the AWS Consulting COE Pattern Partner team, and experts from Snyk Studio across consulting, engineering, and product.

The program design supports fast yet responsible experimentation. Customers can move from idea to live pilot while maintaining enterprise-grade security, compliance, and governance. The pattern also includes a clear path from pilot to scale, so organizations can extend from initial deployments to cross-region and multi-business unit rollouts with ongoing optimization.

Being part of the AWS Pattern Partners program allows Snyk Studio to bring emerging AWS capabilities, such as Generative AI and Agentic applications, to customers earlier. Guardrails and controls stay clear and well-defined. The company can turn its strongest customer successes into repeatable assets that benefit a wider set of organizations. Collaboration with AWS field teams, solution architects, and service teams keeps the pattern aligned with the latest platform innovation.

Snyk also contributes back to the broader AWS partner ecosystem by sharing learnings and raising the standard for how emerging technology is adopted. For customers, this approach reduces risk, increases predictability, and accelerates business impact from AWS investments.

Partner perspective

“Joining AWS Pattern Partners is a strategic milestone for Snyk. With Snyk Studio, we turn our strongest customer wins into a clear, repeatable path to prevent new AI-generated risk and remediate existing security vulnerability debt, so customers can move from pilots to production with greater speed, control, and confidence.”

Carey Stanton, SVP Of Business Development, Snyk

AWS perspective

“AWS created Pattern Partners to work with a select cohort of builders who can set the standard for how enterprises adopt emerging technology on AWS. Snyk brings deep expertise in application security and a proven pattern in Snyk Studio that is already delivering measurable outcomes for customers. We look forward to scaling this work together and bringing these benefits to more joint customers across industries.” 

Brian Bohan, Managing Director of Consulting COE, AWS
