DoiT International ranks no. 15 on Fast Company’s fourth annual list of the 100 Best Workplaces for Innovators, joining Microsoft, T-Mobile, Adobe, PayPal and other innovation leaders

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – August 2, 2022 — Fast Company today announced its fourth annual Best Workplaces for Innovators list, honoring organizations and businesses that demonstrate a steadfast commitment to encouraging innovation at all levels. DoiT International came in at no. 15 for its emphasis on versatile, independent thinkers who are empowered to pursue passion projects and nurture their skillsets.

Developed in collaboration with Accenture, the 2022 Best Workplaces for Innovators ranks 100 winners from a variety of industries, including computer science, biotech, consumer packaged goods, nonprofit, education, financial services, cybersecurity, engineering, diversity, sustainability, B2B and consumer products and services. Fast Company editors and Accenture researchers worked together to score nearly 1,500 applications, and a panel of eight eminent judges reviewed and endorsed the top 100 companies. The 2022 awards feature workplaces from around the world.

DoiT’s unique approach to growth focuses on empowering creative problem solvers across the organization. More than half of DoiT’s employees are engineers, an unusual structure in the cloud space. But by over-indexing here, DoiT allows its engineers to dedicate one-third of their time to skill development and experimentation, a focus which drives innovations like Kubent (Kube No Trouble), Cloud Blaster or Iris — all authored by Do’ers and made available last year.

“DoiT is intentional in how we’ve created a work culture dedicated to innovation,” said Chief People Officer Kristen Tronsky. “Our employees come here because they’re seeking a workplace where they’ll be empowered to create and challenge themselves. Do’ers aren’t cogs in a machine — they’re spark plugs generating the lightning that powers this company.”

The company’s commitment to innovation led to the development of Flexsave, the ML-powered cost optimization technology that enables customers to manage and optimize their cloud compute savings with automation and flexibility. Available for DoiT customers since 2021, Flexsave became generally available in June 2022 as a standalone offering for AWS and Google Cloud customers.

The focus on supporting creativity is matched with a firm commitment to core values and a strong referral pipeline that keeps Do’ers embedded in a supportive culture and able to function with a high level of autonomy. Paired with some of the most intelligent technology in cloud management, DoiT is a haven for innovation at all levels.

“This year’s list of the Best Workplaces for Innovators recognizes organizations that have demonstrated a deep commitment to cultivating creativity across the board,” says Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company. “In the face of powerful headwinds, these leaders and teams continue to spur innovation.”

  1. ec2 instance connect appears to be locked down to SSH and RDP protocols (ports 22 and 3389 only), meaning you can’t use it for databases in the way this post suggests. You still need to ssh to some instance then connect to the DB from there – the advantage is you don’t need to expose that ec2 instance publicly.

    If you go through the above guide, you’ll just get the following error:

    awscli.customizations.ec2instanceconnect.websocket – ERROR – {“ErrorCode”:”InvalidParameter”,”Message”:”The specified RemotePort is not valid. Specify either 22 or 3389 as the RemotePort and retry your request.”}

    did you actually try the above out successfully?
