At AWS, security is “job zero” for every employee—it’s even more important than any number one priority. In this Let’s Architect! post, we’ve collected security content to help you protect data, manage access, protect networks and applications, detect and monitor threats, and ensure privacy and compliance. Managing temporary elevated access to your AWS environment One […]

AWS customers are in various stages of their cloud journey. Frequently, enterprises begin that journey by rehosting (lift-and-shift migrating) their on-premises workloads into AWS, and running Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances. You can rehost using AWS Application Migration Service (MGN), a cloud-native migration tool. You may need to relocate instances and workloads to […]

Companies in many industries use UI forms to collect customer data for account registrations, online shopping, and surveys. It can be tedious to create form fields. Proper use of input validation can help users easily find and fix mistakes. Best practice is that users should not see a form filled with “this field is required” […]

Many Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers use IBM MQ on-premises and are looking to migrate it to the AWS Cloud. For persistent storage requirements with IBM MQ on AWS, Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) can be used for distributed storage and to provide high availability.

Data Services teams in all industries are developing centralized data platforms that provide shared access to datasets across multiple business units and teams within the organization. This makes data governance easier, minimizes data redundancy thus reducing cost, and improves data integrity. The central data platform is often built with Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). […]

Training artificial intelligence (AI) services and machine learning (ML) workloads uses a lot of energy—and they are becoming bigger and more complex. As an example, the Carbontracker: Tracking and Predicting the Carbon Footprint of Training Deep Learning Models study estimates that a single training session for a language model like GPT-3 can have a carbon footprint […]

Though it seems like something out of a sci-fi movie, machine learning (ML) is part of our day-to-day lives. So often, in fact, that we may not always notice it. For example, social networks and mobile applications use ML to assess user patterns and interactions to deliver a more personalized experience. However, AWS services provide […]

This blog post was co-authored by Vinodh Kumar Rathnasabapathy, Senior Manager of Software Engineering, UnitedHealth Group.  Engineers who use Amazon Cognito for machine-to-machine authentication select a primary Region where they deploy their application infrastructure and the Amazon Cognito authorization endpoint. Amazon Cognito is a highly available service in single Region deployments with a published service-level […]

Many organizations with large ecommerce presences have procedures to detect major anomalies in their user traffic. Often, these processes use static alerts or manual monitoring. However, the ability to detect minor anomalies in traffic patterns near real-time can be challenging. Early detection of these minor anomalies in ecommerce traffic (such as website page visits and […]
