This blog post examines how Salesforce, operating one of the world’s largest Kubernetes deployments, successfully migrated from Cluster Autoscaler to Karpenter across their fleet of 1,000 plus Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) clusters.

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.

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.

Building an AI gateway to Amazon Bedrock with Amazon API Gateway

In this post, we’ll explore a reference architecture that helps enterprises govern their Amazon Bedrock implementations using Amazon API Gateway. This pattern enables key capabilities like authorization controls, usage quotas, and real-time response streaming. We’ll examine the architecture, provide deployment steps, and discuss potential enhancements to help you implement AI governance at scale.

Architecting for AI excellence: AWS launches three Well-Architected Lenses at re:Invent 2025

At re:Invent 2025, we introduce one new lens and two significant updates to the AWS Well-Architected Lenses specifically focused on AI workloads: the Responsible AI Lens, the Machine Learning (ML) Lens, and the Generative AI Lens. Together, these lenses provide comprehensive guidance for organizations at different stages of their AI journey, whether you’re just starting to experiment with machine learning or already deploying complex AI applications at scale.

Build priority-based message processing with Amazon MQ and AWS App Runner

In this post, we show you how to build a priority-based message processing system using Amazon MQ for priority queuing, Amazon DynamoDB for data persistence, and AWS App Runner for serverless compute. We demonstrate how to implement application-level delays that high-priority messages can bypass, create real-time UIs with WebSocket connections, and configure dual-layer retry mechanisms for maximum reliability.
