Nova

AWS-aligned cloud migration and software engineering

Overview

Nova (IO Connect Services) provides software engineering and cloud solutions with a hybrid onshore/nearshore delivery model that taps U.S. and Latin American talent to serve SMBs and digitally native businesses. Their offerings cover cloud migration, cloud-native development, DevOps, cybersecurity, managed services, FinOps, and enterprise integrations, delivered through staff augmentation, project-based teams, or "Pod" teams dedicated to client goals. A core differentiator is a deep partnership ecosystem centered on AWS as an Advanced Tier Services Partner (with competencies in retail, migration, and DevOps), plus MuleSoft System Integrator, Salesforce Commerce Cloud Consulting Partner, and Datadog Partner, enabling integrated cloud and data workflows. The company aims to help clients move and manage their operations in the cloud more efficiently, expanding its services and engineering staff following a majority growth equity investment from East Los Capital in 2023.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Nova launched Shopify-Datadog observability in June 2025, deepening commerce platform relevance.
  • AWS announced Amazon Connect Customer Competency in June 2026, rewarding contact-center specialists.
  • Nova's July 2026 site update highlights AI and data services, signaling fresh demand capture.

What critics are saying

  • AWS will deprecate Amazon Connect Service Delivery by June 1, 2027, pressuring Nova's validation.
  • PE-backed services firms face margin compression as AI tooling commoditizes implementation work fast.
  • Nova's niche depends on founder-led execution; a sales or delivery stumble hits renewal velocity.

What makes Nova unique

  • Nova combines onshore U.S. leadership with LATAM engineering from Newark, Guadalajara, and Madrid.
  • Its 2025 rebrand added AI, GenAI, commerce, and payments services beyond cloud migration.
  • AWS Advanced Partner status plus Datadog and MuleSoft integrations anchor specialized delivery.
