If you run critical workloads on AWS, such as a contact center on Amazon Connect Customer, database workloads on Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS), or hybrid connectivity through AWS Direct Connect, service health events demand your attention. But not all events are equal. An operational issue, a scheduled maintenance window, and a deprecation notice […]

In this post, we explain how S&P Global Market Intelligence implemented an innovative disaster recovery solution for their Capital IQ platform using Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP. This solution enables immediate failover to read-only mode in a secondary region within 15 minutes, followed by full read-write recovery when needed. This approach achieves reduction in failover time while maintaining data consistency for global financial operations.

In this post, we walk through the legacy architecture challenges, the stateless streaming solution, key implementation patterns, and performance results—a pattern you can apply if you’re building high-traffic APIs that aggregate data from multiple backend sources.

In this post, you learn how to build an automated, serverless pipeline that converts scanned PDF medical records into FHIR R4-compliant data using Amazon Bedrock Data Automation and AWS HealthLake. We walk through the architecture, explain how each AWS service connects to the next, show you what the pipeline looks like when it runs, and get you deployed in under 20 minutes.

This post shows how to build a highly available Oracle database architecture using FSxN shared storage, Auto Scaling groups with dynamic AMI updates, and serverless orchestration to help reduce recovery times with current configurations.

In this post, we show you how Doczy.ai™ uses generative AI on AWS to automate contract intelligence at scale, transforming unstructured documents into structured, actionable insights, so organizations can automate critical business processes and unlock the full value of their data.

In this post, we show how to build a comprehensive scalable user search layer on top of Amazon Cognito using AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon OpenSearch Service.

This post explores how ALS GeoAnalytics successfully deployed LITHOLENS ™ with Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) to scale model training and inference while minimizing cost.

This post introduces a video decoding optimization technique that we have ideated in collaboration with Synthesia Research Engineering team, which we call Asynchronous Frame Generation Pipeline. Adopting this technique allows you to overlap GPU compute, device-to-host (D2H) data transfer, and host-side post-processing. In this post, we apply this technique to the VAE decoder of a Wan video generation model as an example, where our benchmarks on G7e show increased GPU kernel utilization from 82% to 99.9%, in turn leading to an 8.2% decrease in latency (and increase in throughput) for video decoding. We expect this technique to benefit any customer with a chunked video generation pipeline that transfers frames to host memory.

In this post, we demonstrate an approach we used to address this challenge for a customer by implementing an AWS Lambda transformation function that streams Amazon CloudWatch metrics directly to internal OpenTelemetry collectors running within a VPC.
