In this post, we demonstrate how to deploy the DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B model using AWS DLCs for vLLMs on Amazon EKS, showcasing how these purpose-built containers simplify deployment of this powerful open source inference engine. This solution can help you solve the complex infrastructure challenges of deploying LLMs while maintaining performance and cost-efficiency.

In this post, you’ll learn how Zapier has built their serverless architecture focusing on three key aspects: using Lambda functions to build isolated Zaps, operating over a hundred thousand Lambda functions through Zapier’s control plane infrastructure, and enhancing security posture while reducing maintenance efforts by introducing automated function upgrades and cleanup workflows into their platform architecture.

In this post, you’ll learn how Scale to Win configured their network topology and AWS WAF to protect against DDoS events that reached peaks of over 2 million requests per second during the 2024 US presidential election campaign season. The post details how they implemented comprehensive DDoS protection by segmenting human and machine traffic, using tiered rate limits with CAPTCHA, and preventing CAPTCHA token reuse through AWS WAF Bot Control.

In this post, we explore the Amazon Bedrock baseline architecture and how you can secure and control network access to your various Amazon Bedrock capabilities within AWS network services and tools. We discuss key design considerations, such as using Amazon VPC Lattice auth policies, Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) endpoints, and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) to restrict and monitor access to your Amazon Bedrock capabilities.

This post demonstrates how the Issuer Solutions business of Global Payments, as a service provider, implemented cross-Region failover for an AWS PrivateLink backed service exposed to their customers. Their solution enables failover to a secondary Region without customer coordination, reducing Recovery Time Objective (RTO).

In this post, we explore a unique scenario where an ISV, unable to provide a floating license option for cloud usage, worked with Stellantis to develop an alternative solution. This approach, implemented with the ISV’s permission, treats named user licenses as if they were floating, automatically assigning and removing them based on the state of user workbench instances.

In this post, we’ll explore how to maximize the value of dashcam footage through best practices for implementing and managing Computer Vision systems in commercial fleet operations. We’ll demonstrate how to build and deploy edge-based machine learning models that provide real-time alerts for distracted driving behaviors, while effectively collecting, processing, and analyzing footage to train these AI models.

In this post, you will learn how Amazon Web Services (AWS) customer, Maya, the Philippines’ leading fintech company and digital bank, built an API management platform to address the growing complexities of managing multiple APIs hosted on Amazon API Gateway.

In this blog post, we introduce a reference architecture that offers an intelligent document digitization solution that converts handwritten notes, scanned documents, and images into editable, searchable, and accessible formats. Powered by Anthropic’s Claude 3 on Amazon Bedrock, the solution uses the sophisticated vision capabilities of LLMs to process a wide range of visual formats, preserving the original formatting while extracting text, tables, and images.

Modern cloud architectures demand a new governance approach. In this post, we show how collaborative architecture oversight can transform team performance through automation, self-service platforms, and distributed decision-making.
