Automate safety monitoring with computer vision and generative AI

This post describes a solution that uses fixed camera networks to monitor operational environments in near real-time, detecting potential safety hazards while capturing object floor projections and their relationships to floor markings. While we illustrate the approach through distribution center deployment examples, the underlying architecture applies broadly across industries. We explore the architectural decisions, strategies for scaling to hundreds of sites, reducing site onboarding time, synthetic data generation using generative AI tools like GLIGEN, and other critical technical hurdles we overcame.

This diagram illustrates a comprehensive continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline architecture using AWS services, featuring feedback loops that connect development, testing, and production environments.

Architecting for agentic AI development on AWS

In this post, we demonstrate how to architect AWS systems that enable AI agents to iterate rapidly through design patterns for both system architecture and code base structure. We first examine the architectural problems that limit agentic development today. We then walk through system architecture patterns that support rapid experimentation, followed by codebase patterns that help AI agents understand, modify, and validate your applications with confidence.

How Generali Malaysia optimizes operations with Amazon EKS

In this post, we look at how Generali is using Amazon EKS Auto Mode and its integration with other AWS services to enhance performance while reducing operational overhead, optimizing costs, and enhancing security.

6,000 AWS accounts, three people, one platform: Lessons learned

This post describes why ProGlove chose a account-per-tenant approach for our serverless SaaS architecture and how it changes the operational model. It covers the challenges you need to anticipate around automation, observability and cost. We will also discuss how the approach can affect other operational models in different environments like an enterprise context.

Mastering millisecond latency and millions of events: The event-driven architecture behind the Amazon Key Suite

In this post, we explore how the Amazon Key team used Amazon EventBridge to modernize their architecture, transforming a tightly coupled monolithic system into a resilient, event-driven solution. We explore the technical challenges we faced, our implementation approach, and the architectural patterns that helped us achieve improved reliability and scalability. The post covers our solutions for managing event schemas at scale, handling multiple service integrations efficiently, and building an extensible architecture that accommodates future growth.

Architecting conversational observability for cloud applications

In this post, we walk through building a generative AI–powered troubleshooting assistant for Kubernetes. The goal is to give engineers a faster, self-service way to diagnose and resolve cluster issues, cut down Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR), and reduce the cycles experts spend finding the root cause of issues in complex distributed systems.

How BASF’s Agriculture Solutions drives traceability and climate action by tokenizing cotton value chains using Amazon Managed Blockchain

BASF Agricultural Solutions combines innovative products and digital tools with practical farmer knowledge. This post explores how Amazon Managed Blockchain can drive a positive change in the agricultural industry by tokenizing food and cotton value chains for traceability, climate action, and circularity.

She architects: Bringing unique perspectives to innovative solutions at AWS

Have you ever wondered what it is really like to be a woman in tech at one of the world’s leading cloud companies? Or maybe you are curious about how diverse perspectives drive innovation beyond the buzzwords? Today, we are providing an insider’s perspective on the role of a solutions architect (SA) at Amazon Web Services (AWS). However, this is not a typical corporate success story. We are three women who have navigated challenges, celebrated wins, and found our unique paths in the world of cloud architecture, and we want to share our real stories with you.

Figure 1: Secure Amazon EVS with AWS Network Firewall using centralized inspection architecture

Secure Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) with AWS Network Firewall

In this post, we demonstrate how to utilize AWS Network Firewall to secure an Amazon EVS environment, using a centralized inspection architecture across an EVS cluster, VPCs, on-premises data centers and the internet. We walk through the implementation steps to deploy this architecture using AWS Network Firewall and AWS Transit Gateway.
