As head of Americas Partner Sales for AWS, Rachel Mushahwar is laser-focused on igniting our channel to deliver net-new revenue and help customers leverage innovative technology to achieve the unimaginable. Explore the three core pillars that guide our everyday work with AWS Partners: connect, inspire, grow. Learn how partners like Capgemini, Edrans, Zuggand, Databricks, and F5 are leveraging the AWS Partner Network (APN) to help customers at every stage of their cloud adoption journey.

Organizations the world over rely on the Exadata database platform to operate and manage Oracle databases, simplify data management, and ensure performance-intensive systems are running as expected. While Exadata workloads perform well on premises, customers are looking to achieve the scalability, flexibility, and cost benefits of AWS. Learn how Navisite tests the performance of Exadata workloads once they have been migrated to AWS using Oracle Real Application Testing (RAT).

Montoux’s next-generation decision science platform for insurers uniquely combines actuarial and data science in its software, providing a modern, flexible, and sophisticated alternative to legacy actuarial software. Learn how the AI-driven model replication module is specifically developed to support an insurer’s transition to cloud and reduces the time, cost, and effort required to migrate to a new platform.

Databricks SQL is a dedicated workspace for data analysts that comprises a native SQL editor, drag-and-drop dashboards, and built-in connectors for all major business intelligence tools as well as Photon. In this post, Volker Tjaden, an APN Ambassador from Databricks, shares the technical capabilities of Databricks SQL and walks through two examples: ingesting, querying, and visualizing AWS CloudTrail log data, and building near real-time dashboards on data coming from Amazon Kinesis.

To reap the benefits of cloud computing, organizations cannot simply take their existing applications and architectures in their legacy on-premises environment and move them as-is to the cloud. True cloud modernization with MongoDB Atlas on AWS enables you to move data and simultaneously apply the latest innovations in development methodologies, architectural patterns, and technologies to refresh your portfolio of existing applications.

We are excited to highlight 88 AWS Partners that received new designations in October for our global AWS Competency, AWS Managed Service Provider (MSP), AWS Service Delivery, and AWS Service Ready programs. These designations span workload, solution, and industry, and help AWS customers identify top AWS Partners that can deliver on core business objectives. AWS Partners are focused on your success, helping customers take full advantage of the business benefits AWS has to offer.

By avoiding inspections, insurers lose the opportunity to adequately consider all factors during underwriting and take on more risk. TCS has built a virtual inspection solution on AWS that is customizable to various inspection use cases, such as home insurance inspections and claims, auto claims damage assessment and estimation, and mortgage inspection. This post provides an overview of the TCS virtual inspection solution, describes the high-level architecture, and explores the potential business benefits for insurers.

Security is the highest priority for AWS, which works closely with industry-leading partners such as CloudHealth by VMware to build security solutions for customers like CloudHealth Secure State (CHSS). Learn how you can set up CHSS projects, suppress rules and alerts, find misconfigurations through CHSS Explore, and set up remediation jobs all built on CloudHealth’s unified security monitoring approach for AWS.

As multi-tenant SaaS providers look to leverage machine learning services, they must consider how they’ll protect the data that flows in and out of these services from different tenants. Learn how tenant isolation of machine learning services can be achieved using AWS IAM, and how the integration between IAM, Amazon SageMaker, and many other AWS services provide developers with a rich set of mechanisms that can be applied to realize tenant isolation goals.

Element 84, in collaboration with AWS and Geoscience Australia, has released the Sentinel-2 Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) dataset on AWS Open Data. Sentinel-2 is an important platform for Earth observation, and its imagery contributes to ongoing research in climate change, land use, and emergency management. By making the Sentinel-2 archive more cloud-native, we are making the data more user-friendly and (hopefully) making the lives of emergency managers, climate scientists, and policy makers that much easier.
