The relational database is a critical resource in application architecture. Enterprise organizations often use relational database management systems (RDBMS) to provide embedded workflow state management. But this can present problems, such as inefficient use of data storage and compute resources, performance issues, and decreased agility. Add to this the responsibility of managing workflow states through […]

Federated Learning (FL) is an emerging approach to machine learning (ML) where model training data is not stored in a central location. During ML training, we typically need to access the entire training dataset on a single machine. For purposes of performance scaling, we divide the training data between multiple CPUs, multiple GPUs, or a […]

Many AWS services have features to help you build and manage a multi-Region architecture, but identifying those capabilities across 200+ services can be overwhelming. In this 3-part blog series, we filter through those 200+ services and focus on those that have specific features to assist you in building multi-Region applications. In Part 1, we’ll build […]

The IoT (Internet of Things) has accelerated digital transformation for many industries. Companies can now offer smarter home devices, remote patient monitoring, connected and autonomous vehicles, smart consumer devices, and many more products. The enormous volume of data emitted from IoT devices can be used to improve performance, efficiency, and develop new service and business […]

If you are new to creating cloud architectures, you might find it a daunting undertaking. However, there is an approach that can help you define a cloud architecture pattern by using a similar construct. In this blog post, I will show you how to envision your cloud architecture using this structured and simplified approach. Such […]

Are you ready to extend your on-premises Active Directory to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to remove undifferentiated heavy lifting? Would you like to maintain a highly available Directory Service for your applications? Companies who have already set up integration with Okta Identity Cloud for external or internal applications require Active Directory objects to be synced […]

Co-authored with Russell de Pina, former Sr. Partner Solutions Architect at AWS Manufacturers looking to achieve greater operational efficiency need actionable insights from their operational data. Traditionally, operational technology (OT) and enterprise information technology (IT) existed in silos with various manual processes to clean and process data. Leveraging insights at a process level requires converging […]

This blog post features some of our best picks from November’s new and updated content. 1. Game Industry Lens for the AWS Well-Architected Framework This new Lens specifies best practices for the unique characteristics […]

Many aspects of autonomous driving (AD) system development are based on data that capture real-life driving scenarios. Therefore, research and development professionals working on AD systems need to handle an ever-changing array of interesting datasets composed from the real-life driving data.  In this blog post, we address a key problem in AD system development, which […]

Volotea is one of the fastest growing independent airlines in Europe, and has increased its fleet, routes, and number of available seats year over year. Volotea has already transported more than 30 million passengers across Europe since 2012, and has bases in 16 European capitals. The maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) application is a critical […]
