Amazon Q and generative BI are transforming business operations, and AWS Partners like ZS Associates, Tiger Analytics, and Compass UOL are pioneering use cases leveraging these technologies to build industry-tailored solutions that improve decision making, operations, fraud detection, software development lifecycles, and more. AWS provides resources to help partners develop and deploy such transformative generative AI offerings.

The Amazon Athena Teradata Connector enables Athena to query data in Teradata Vantage using SQL, and comprises two AWS Lambda functions for metadata and record reading. This post describes deploying the connector, creating a Lambda layer for the Teradata JDBC driver, and running queries on Teradata from Athena, including a federated query joining Teradata and S3 data. This provides a scalable, serverless way to analyze data across different data stores without data duplication.

Connecting IoT devices securely to the cloud can be complex, but AWS IoT ExpressLink simplifies this by providing connectivity modules with built-in security from AWS Partners. Cardinal Peak used these modules to accelerate IoT product prototyping, avoiding hardware redesigns, simplifying firmware, using pre-installed certificates, streamlining manufacturing, and enabling efficient cloud onboarding. Overall, AWS IoT ExpressLink helped Cardinal Peak save over 6 months of engineering time.

NextBillion.ai provides mapping solutions for enterprises, aiming to deliver precise estimated time of arrival (ETA). It developed ENZYME, a system leveraging AWS services like Amazon SageMaker to evaluate map quality and improve ETA accuracy through machine learning. By feeding industry data into custom models, ENZYME reduces the mean absolute percentage error between estimated and actual arrival times by 10-20% compared to regular maps.

nOps Compute Copilot extends the capabilities of the open-source Karpenter Kubernetes cluster autoscaler, adding awareness of your AWS compute commitments like Reserved Instances and Savings Plans. It also analyzes Amazon EC2 Spot pricing data and termination risk to intelligently select the most cost-effective and stable Spot Instances for workloads. nOps automatically manages your Karpenter configurations, updating NodePools based on its cost optimization analysis and recommendations.

Companies often need to securely share digital resources when collaborating, and the extranet provides a mechanism for this using cloud platforms like AWS. Alkira’s Extranet-as-a-Service (EaaS) solution enables secure global connectivity, network segmentation, NAT for overlapping IPs, and integrated security for partner access to AWS applications. Alkira reinvents networking for the cloud era and allows enterprises to build networks with cloud-like speed, agility, and scale.

As data volumes grow, visibility into key metrics becomes crucial for optimizing reliability, performance, and cost. Pariveda’s observability solution leverages AWS services to build operational dashboards displaying AWS Glue job details like runtimes, status, and computational load. By unlocking deeper insights, users can pinpoint optimization opportunities, troubleshoot issues faster, and drive greater efficiency across their data pipelines as workloads scale.

Generative AI adoption is rapidly growing to meet the massive data needs of modern machine learning models. Manually labeling data can be time-consuming but AWS has collaborated with Datasaur to offer solutions addressing data labeling challenges using generative AI. Datasaur’s NLP Platform automates annotation tasks and integrates with AWS services, and its LLM Labs evaluates large language models’ performance and cost for labeling.

Securing PII can be challenging with data scattered across repositories, as organizations often struggle to maintain robust security and compliance measures. Skyflow’s Data Privacy Vault, available on AWS Marketplace, delivers security, compliance, and data residency for AWS workloads by isolating and tokenizing sensitive data. It integrates with Cloud Storage Security to automatically scan uploaded files for malware, further protecting infrastructure and easing sensitive file management.

Cisco Duo integrates with AWS to establish and maintain zero-trust security. It helps to eliminate surface area through strict access policies, evaluate risk signals to require step-up authentication, and establish device trust through posture checks and compliance enforcement. Learn now to configure Duo’s policies that enable risk-based authentication, deploy Duo Desktop for device trust, and integrate Duo with AWS via SAML and OpenID Connect to protect AWS services and applications.
