Unlocking video understanding with TwelveLabs Marengo on Amazon Bedrock

In this post, we’ll show how the TwelveLabs Marengo embedding model, available on Amazon Bedrock, enhances video understanding through multimodal AI. We’ll build a video semantic search and analysis solution using embeddings from the Marengo model with Amazon OpenSearch Serverless as the vector database, for semantic search capabilities that go beyond simple metadata matching to deliver intelligent content discovery.

Customize agent workflows with advanced orchestration techniques using Strands Agents

In this post, we explore two powerful orchestration patterns implemented with Strands Agents. Using a common set of travel planning tools, we demonstrate how different orchestration strategies can solve the same problem through distinct reasoning approaches,

How Harmonic Security improved their data-leakage detection system with low-latency fine-tuned models using Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Bedrock, and Amazon Nova Pro

This post walks through how Harmonic Security used Amazon SageMaker AI, Amazon Bedrock, and Amazon Nova Pro to fine-tune a ModernBERT model, achieving low-latency, accurate, and scalable data leakage detection.

Implement automated smoke testing using Amazon Nova Act headless mode

This post shows how to implement automated smoke testing using Amazon Nova Act headless mode in CI/CD pipelines. We use SauceDemo, a sample ecommerce application, as our target for demonstration. We demonstrate setting up Amazon Nova Act for headless browser automation in CI/CD environments and creating smoke tests that validate key user workflows. We then show how to implement parallel execution to maximize testing efficiency, configure GitLab CI/CD for automatic test execution on every deployment, and apply best practices for maintainable and scalable test automation.

Create an intelligent insurance underwriter agent powered by Amazon Nova 2 Lite and Amazon Quick Suite

In this post, we demonstrate how to build an intelligent insurance underwriting agent that addresses three critical challenges: unifying siloed data across CRM systems and databases, providing explainable and auditable AI decisions for regulatory compliance, and enabling automated fraud detection with consistent underwriting rules. The solution combines Amazon Nova 2 Lite for transparent risk assessment, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore for managed MCP server infrastructure, and Amazon Quick Suite for natural language interactions—delivering a production-ready system that underwriters can deploy in under 30 minutes .

Amazon SageMaker AI introduces EAGLE based adaptive speculative decoding to accelerate generative AI inference

Amazon SageMaker AI now supports EAGLE-based adaptive speculative decoding, a technique that accelerates large language model inference by up to 2.5x while maintaining output quality. In this post, we explain how to use EAGLE 2 and EAGLE 3 speculative decoding in Amazon SageMaker AI, covering the solution architecture, optimization workflows using your own datasets or SageMaker’s built-in data, and benchmark results demonstrating significant improvements in throughput and latency.

Train custom computer vision defect detection model using Amazon SageMaker

In this post, we demonstrate how to migrate computer vision workloads from Amazon Lookout for Vision to Amazon SageMaker AI by training custom defect detection models using pre-trained models available on AWS Marketplace. We provide step-by-step guidance on labeling datasets with SageMaker Ground Truth, training models with flexible hyperparameter configurations, and deploying them for real-time or batch inference—giving you greater control and flexibility for automated quality inspection use cases.
