Many companies serve their customers “in the field.” These are broadly: 1) companies that have a field service business function, e.g., for the repair of equipment that they sell to their customers, and 2) companies that have a route sales business function, e.g., a Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) company’s own or contract employees stocking the […]

In this blog post, we’ll explain how using AWS Amplify in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions differs from AWS Regions. Then, we’ll walk through moving a workload from an AWS Region to AWS GovCloud (US). We’ll be assuming you wish to build a serverless web application based on modern frameworks, such as ReactJS and Angular, built […]

AWS AppSync is a managed serverless GraphQL service that simplifies application development by letting you create a flexible API to securely access, manipulate, and combine data from one or more data sources with a single network call. In GraphQL, developers write resolvers, units of code that implement the business logic that controls how to fetch […]

AWS Amplify is a set of tools and services that enables mobile and front-end web developers to build secure, scalable full-stack applications powered by AWS.

Customers often ask developers to design and create a web application form that captures the registration for some events or training that they want to host. AWS Amplify solves this problem by creating the required resources and generating the boilerplate integration code for different layers using serverless technologies. Now, developers can focus on developing the […]

What’s a resolver? A GraphQL Resolver is a function or method that resolves a value for a type or field within a schema. A resolver is the key architectural component that connects GraphQL fields, graph edges, queries, mutations, and subscriptions to their respective data sources and microservices. In this post, we’ll focus on how to build […]

As organizations grow, they often need to serve geographically dispersed users with low latency, prompting them to have a distributed global infrastructure in the cloud. By leveraging the AWS Global Network to deploy applications into multiple AWS Regions, organizations can allow their users to connect to an API endpoint in the Region with the lowest […]

AWS AppSync is a managed serverless GraphQL service that makes it easy to create GraphQL APIs. You can use AppSync to securely access, manipulate, and combine data from one or more data sources in a single API call. Developers use AppSync to build scalable applications for a wide range of use cases, such as real-time […]

Today, Amazon Location Service introduces the new Suggestions API which adds autocomplete functionality when searching for places on a map or inserting addresses in a web form.
