    Operate your AWS platform with an experienced managed service provider.

    iTmethods manages the agreed AWS services, engineering tools, open-source platforms and AI infrastructure.

    Available today. iTmethods brings 21 years of experience operating mission-critical technology environments to its managed services.

    The decision

    Reign Ops operates the layer above your AWS account.

    You already have an AWS account, a landing zone and a security posture somebody signed off.

    01The toolchain is the part nobody owns
    Cloud teams own the account. Product teams own the applications. The engineering toolchain in between belongs to whoever complained last.

    That gap is where version currency slips, where the audit questions land, and where the pager goes off at an inconvenient hour.

    02Your account, your controls, unchanged
    We operate inside the posture your cloud team already set, rather than asking for an exception to it.

    Adoption is additive. The landing zone, the guardrails and the network model you run stay exactly as they are.

    03The AI services are the same problem, newer
    Model endpoints, agent services and the tooling around them need operating the same way the toolchain does.

    They arrive faster, they are reached by more things, and almost nobody has decided who patches them. The AI substrate →

    04The designations mean somebody checked
    AWS validates its Managed Service Providers against a published audit, and iTmethods holds that validation.

    It is not a claim about your compliance position. It is a claim about ours, made by somebody other than us, and it is the kind worth having.

    What runs here

    Four kinds of workload. One operating model.

    The scope can include source control and CI/CD, work management, quality and artifact platforms, open-source applications, model access, agent runtimes and supporting AWS services.

    WorkloadWhat Reign Ops operatesWhat that removes
    Engineering toolchain CloudBees CI Atlassian Data Center GitHub GitLab Bitbucket Version currency stops being a ticket waiting for a quiet week. The catalog →
    Enterprise applications Managed applications reached over private connectivity rather than the public internet, inside your account. The applications your business runs stop being a set of individually-owned exceptions.
    AI tooling Bedrock SageMaker Q Developer Model access becomes something operated rather than something a team wired up once.
    Agent workloads Bedrock AgentCore EKS Lambda Agents run somewhere specific, with an identity, under policy.
    How it is operated

    Inside your account, under your posture.

    These are the operating facts, and they hold across all four workload classes.

    Put AWS and platform expertise behind the service.

    A named operating team manages the AWS services and engineering or AI platforms in scope, including dependencies and escalations that cross infrastructure and application layers.

    Operate against agreed service levels.

    Monitoring, incident response, backup and recovery, patching and upgrades follow the agreed coverage, priorities, escalation path and service measures.

    Control cost and capacity.

    Review resource use, rightsizing, scaling, storage, data transfer and commitments. Implement approved changes and track their effect against the agreed cost and usage baseline.

    Keep change and access controlled.

    Apply the customer's identity, access, network, logging and change requirements. Record privileged access, changes, incidents and exceptions in the destinations agreed for the service.

    Attestation status and the standard pack for procurement are released on request under non-disclosure rather than asserted here. iTmethods makes no compliance, certification or accreditation claim under any framework. Security and trust → · Regulatory alignment →

    Where Reign fits

    Reign Ops runs it on AWS. Reign governs what the AI does on top.

    AWS gives you the primitives and the account boundary. What it does not give you is a record of what your agents asked for and what they were allowed. Reign Gateway sits on the model path, across Bedrock and everything else, which is where that gets written.

    What the record carries
    For each model call: the identity that made it, the policy that applied, the decision taken, the model that answered and the time it happened. Applied at the point the call is made rather than reconstructed from cloud logs afterwards, and the same record whether the model is on Bedrock or somewhere else.
    The part worth being precise about. This is a record of what happened, prepared so a reviewer can follow it. It is not a verdict, it is not an audit opinion, and operating inside your posture is not a claim about your compliance position. iTmethods makes no compliance, certification or accreditation claim under any framework.

    Shared responsibility

    What we run, what you run.

    Written down before anything is deployed, so the boundary is a document rather than a discovery.

    FAQ

    Does this run in our AWS account or yours?
    Either. It runs as a single-tenant dedicated instance in infrastructure iTmethods operates, or the same instance in your own AWS or Azure account. Both are available today. Google Cloud is planned for 2027. What does not change either way is that the code, the data and the artifacts are yours.
    Do we have to change our landing zone?
    No. We operate inside the guardrails and account structure your cloud team already set, and we do not ask for an exception to them. If something cannot be done inside your posture, we will say so at the start rather than discover it later.
    What do the AWS designations actually mean?
    Advanced Tier Services Partner and Validated Managed Service Provider are designations AWS awards against its own published audit. They are a statement about how iTmethods operates, made by somebody other than iTmethods. They are not a statement about your compliance position, and nothing on this page claims otherwise.
    Which deployment shapes can we have?
    A single-tenant dedicated instance, in infrastructure iTmethods operates or in your own cloud account on AWS or Azure. Both are available today and both are single-tenant. Google Cloud is planned for 2027. Air-gapped and sovereign deployment are supported. There is no multi-tenant or shared option at any tier. Deployment options states which is which without softening any of them.
    What does it cost?
    Scoped per engagement. This site publishes no price list and no tiers, because what we would operate for you is the thing being priced and it is different every time. The scoping call is where that gets answered, and it commits you to nothing.
