Build up-to-date generative AI applications with real-time vector embedding blueprints for Amazon MSK

We’re introducing a real-time vector embedding blueprint, which simplifies building real-time AI applications by automatically generating vector embeddings using Amazon Bedrock from streaming data in Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) and indexing them in Amazon OpenSearch Service. In this post, we discuss the importance of real-time data for generative AI applications, typical architectural patterns for building Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) capabilities, and how to use real-time vector embedding blueprints for Amazon MSK to simplify your RAG architecture.

Integrate Amazon Bedrock with Amazon Redshift ML for generative AI applications

Amazon Redshift has enhanced its Redshift ML feature to support integration of large language models (LLMs). As part of these enhancements, Redshift now enables native integration with Amazon Bedrock. This integration enables you to use LLMs from simple SQL commands alongside your data in Amazon Redshift, helping you to build generative AI applications quickly. This powerful combination enables customers to harness the transformative capabilities of LLMs and seamlessly incorporate them into their analytical workflows.

Enrich your serverless data lake with Amazon Bedrock

Organizations are collecting and storing vast amounts of structured and unstructured data like reports, whitepapers, and research documents. By consolidating this information, analysts can discover and integrate data from across the organization, creating valuable data products based on a unified dataset. This post shows how to integrate Amazon Bedrock with the AWS Serverless Data Analytics Pipeline architecture using Amazon EventBridge, AWS Step Functions, and AWS Lambda to automate a wide range of data enrichment tasks in a cost-effective and scalable manner.

Differentiate generative AI applications with your data using AWS analytics and managed databases

While the potential of generative artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly under evaluation, organizations are at different stages in defining their generative AI vision. In many organizations, the focus is on large language models (LLMs), and foundation models (FMs) more broadly. This is just the tip of the iceberg, because what enables you to obtain differential […]

How ZS built a clinical knowledge repository for semantic search using Amazon OpenSearch Service and Amazon Neptune

In this blog post, we will highlight how ZS Associates used multiple AWS services to build a highly scalable, highly performant, clinical document search platform. This platform is an advanced information retrieval system engineered to assist healthcare professionals and researchers in navigating vast repositories of medical documents, medical literature, research articles, clinical guidelines, protocol documents, […]

Integrate sparse and dense vectors to enhance knowledge retrieval in RAG using Amazon OpenSearch Service

In this post, instead of using the BM25 algorithm, we introduce sparse vector retrieval. This approach offers improved term expansion while maintaining interpretability. We walk through the steps of integrating sparse and dense vectors for knowledge retrieval using Amazon OpenSearch Service and run some experiments on some public datasets to show its advantages.

Optimize your workloads with Amazon Redshift Serverless AI-driven scaling and optimization

The current scaling approach of Amazon Redshift Serverless increases your compute capacity based on the query queue time and scales down when the queuing reduces on the data warehouse. However, you might need to automatically scale compute resources based on factors like query complexity and data volume to meet price-performance targets, irrespective of query queuing. […]

Enrich, standardize, and translate streaming data in Amazon Redshift with generative AI

Amazon Redshift ML is a feature of Amazon Redshift that enables you to build, train, and deploy machine learning (ML) models directly within the Redshift environment. Now, you can use pretrained publicly available large language models (LLMs) in Amazon SageMaker JumpStart as part of Redshift ML, allowing you to bring the power of LLMs to analytics. You can use pretrained publicly available LLMs from leading providers such as Meta, AI21 Labs, LightOn, Hugging Face, Amazon Alexa, and Cohere as part of your Redshift ML workflows. By integrating with LLMs, Redshift ML can support a wide variety of natural language processing (NLP) use cases on your analytical data, such as text summarization, sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, text generation, language translation, data standardization, data enrichment, and more. Through this feature, the power of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and LLMs is made available to you as simple SQL functions that you can apply on your datasets. The integration is designed to be simple to use and flexible to configure, allowing you to take advantage of the capabilities of advanced ML models within your Redshift data warehouse environment.

Protein similarity search using ProtT5-XL-UniRef50 and Amazon OpenSearch Service

A protein is a sequence of amino acids that, when chained together, creates a 3D structure. This 3D structure allows the protein to bind to other structures within the body and initiate changes. This binding is core to the working of many drugs. A common workflow within drug discovery is searching for similar proteins, because […]
