SAN FRANCISCO - GitLab Inc. (GTLB), a $7.27 billion market cap software development platform with impressive 88.64% gross margins and strong financial health, has entered into a three-year strategic collaboration agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to expand access to GitLab Dedicated, according to a press release statement issued Wednesday. According to InvestingPro analysis, GitLab maintains more cash than debt on its balance sheet, positioning it well for strategic initiatives.
GitLab Dedicated is a single-tenant offering that allows organizations in highly regulated industries and the public sector to use cloud infrastructure while meeting complex compliance requirements including data residency, isolation, and private networking. The company’s strong financial position is reflected in its healthy current ratio of 2.48, indicating ample liquidity to support its enterprise solutions.

The solution is managed and hosted by GitLab and deployed in customers’ chosen AWS Regions, eliminating the need for organizations to build and maintain their own infrastructure while providing the flexibility of a self-managed instance.
The collaboration aims to address the need for unified development and security toolchains by consolidating disparate cybersecurity and development tools into a single platform. This approach helps eliminate tool sprawl, accelerate development cycles, reduce operational costs, and strengthen security governance. The strategy appears to be working, with GitLab achieving impressive 29.31% year-over-year revenue growth.
NatWest’s Engineering Platform Lead Bal Kang noted that "GitLab Dedicated has driven stronger collaboration, productivity, and creativity for our software development teams," adding that the platform enables engineers to "deliver new customer outcomes rapidly and securely."
Chris Grusz, Managing Director of Technology Partnerships at AWS, stated that the collaboration "eliminates the compliance roadblocks that have traditionally held regulated industries back," while Ian Steward, Chief Revenue Officer at GitLab, emphasized that the partnership delivers "enterprise-grade DevSecOps capabilities with the data residency and isolation controls" required by sectors such as financial services and government.
The agreement builds upon GitLab’s existing collaboration with AWS, which has previously delivered secure DevSecOps capabilities across multiple industries. Based on InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis, GitLab’s stock is currently trading near its Fair Value, suggesting the market is appropriately pricing in its growth potential and strategic initiatives.
