In this post, we discuss how Volkswagen Autoeuropa used Amazon DataZone to build a data marketplace based on data mesh architecture to accelerate their digital transformation. The data mesh, built on Amazon DataZone, simplified data access, improved data quality, and established governance at scale to power analytics, reporting, AI, and machine learning (ML) use cases. As a result, the data solution offers benefits such as faster access to data, expeditious decision making, accelerated time to value for use cases, and enhanced data governance.

In this post, we highlight key lessons learned while helping a global financial services provider migrate their Apache Hadoop clusters to AWS and best practices that helped reduce their Amazon EMR, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) costs by over 30% per month.

This post demonstrates how to implement a dynamic rules engine using Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink. Our implementation provides the ability to create dynamic rules that can be created and updated without the need to change or redeploy the underlying code or implementation of the rules engine itself. We discuss the architecture, the key services of the implementation, some implementation details that you can use to build your own rules engine, and an AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) project to deploy this in your own account.

Capital Fund Management (CFM) is an alternative investment management company based in Paris with staff in New York City and London. CFM takes a scientific approach to finance, using quantitative and systematic techniques to develop the best investment strategies. In this post, we share how we built a well-governed and scalable data engineering platform using Amazon EMR for financial features generation.

This post describes how HPE Aruba automated their Supply Chain management pipeline, and re-architected and deployed their data solution by adopting a modern data architecture on AWS.

As businesses strive to make informed decisions, the amount of data being generated and required for analysis is growing exponentially. This trend is no exception for Dafiti, an ecommerce company that recognizes the importance of using data to drive strategic decision-making processes. With the ever-increasing volume of data available, Dafiti faces the challenge of effectively managing and extracting valuable insights from this vast pool of information to gain a competitive edge and make data-driven decisions that align with company business objectives. The growing need for storage space to maintain data from over 90 sources and the functionality available on the new Amazon Redshift node types, including managed storage, data sharing, and zero-ETL integrations, led us to migrate from DC2 to RA3 nodes. In this post, we share how we handled the migration process and provide further impressions of our experience.

This blog post introduces Amazon DataZone and explores how VW used it to build their data mesh to enable streamlined data access across multiple data lakes. It focuses on the key aspect of the solution, which was enabling data providers to automatically publish data assets to Amazon DataZone, which served as the central data mesh for enhanced data discoverability. Additionally, the post provides code to guide you through the implementation.

The growth in volume and number of logging sources has been increasing exponentially over the last few years, and will continue to increase in the coming years. As a result, customers across all industries are facing multiple […]

A protein is a sequence of amino acids that, when chained together, creates a 3D structure. This 3D structure allows the protein to bind to other structures within the body and initiate changes. This binding is core to the working of many drugs. A common workflow within drug discovery is searching for similar proteins, because […]
