Securing the future of healthcare in the age of generative AI and connected care
The healthcare industry is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by the adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, and connected care devices. This digital revolution promises to improve patient outcomes, reduce costs, and enhance the overall healthcare experience. However, it also introduces new challenges in terms of cybersecurity, privacy, and regulatory compliance. To navigate this complex landscape, healthcare organizations are turning to scalable, affordable, and highly available cloud infrastructures such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) to build resilient, secure, and innovative solutions.
Rapidly develop fully functional web applications with AWS App Studio
AWS App Studio is a low-code development platform for users to build, deploy, and manage applications without extensive coding knowledge. It is designed to streamline the application development process, making it more accessible to a wider range of users, including business users, IT professionals, and startups that don’t have large specialized IT teams. This post guides you through the process of creating a user-friendly create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) application to efficiently manage birth certificate applications using AWS App Studio.
Strengthen foundation model queries through Amazon Bedrock-Amazon Alexa integration
Today, generative artificial intelligence (AI) is at the core of many of the decisions and technologies businesses across the globe are implementing. The linchpin to ensuring that generative AI is effective depends on the foundation models (FMs) storing the data. To make sure that those FMs are pulling the correct data, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has developed a solution through Amazon Bedrock to generate SQL to answer user questions about the data. The solution was developed to support the Federal Institute of São Paulo (IFSP) and has optimized their decision-making.
