AWS Public Sector Blog

This blog discusses how AWS has supported more than 600 customers with over $90 million of technology to innovate in health. Forty-four percent of these customers employed AWS AI services, seeding AI innovation across the global health landscape and proving that cloud-powered AI can improve health and wellness for all. This blog highlights nine of those organizations deploying AI to save lives today, culminating in AWS’s largest single social impact investment in health: a landmark technology collaboration with the Fleming Initiative to build the world’s first AI-powered platform for combating antimicrobial resistance.

In this blog, learn how five durable pillars—full-stack builders, parallel decision-making, context as a competitive moat, disciplined prioritization, and trust at AI speed—can stabilize your AI product development strategy amid rapid technological change. Drawn from the AWS Product Acceleration team’s work with AI-native product leaders, these principles help organizations cut through the noise and convert AI-driven speed into real customer value rather than chaos.

This blog explains how AWS is supporting federal agencies on two fronts following recent White House Executive Orders on quantum technology: delivering fault-tolerant quantum computers through its collaboration with QuEra Computing on Amazon Braket by 2028, and leading the migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to protect against future quantum-enabled attacks before the 2030–2031 federal deadlines.

In this blog, learn how NASA’s Earth Science Data and Information System (ESDIS) is migrating over 170 petabytes of Earth science data to AWS to provide equitable access to researchers worldwide, eliminating the “data fortress” problem while achieving significant cost efficiencies through intelligent tiering, serverless architecture, and economies of scale. The post also details how NASA made over 6,000 Earth Science collections visible in the Registry of Open Data on AWS, enabling seamless discovery and analysis for the broader AWS user community.

This post is for two audiences. The first is agencies already running MARS-E-compliant workloads on AWS that are looking to map their existing posture onto the new framework. The second is agencies planning a migration from on-premises infrastructure where ARC-AMPE will be in scope from the first day.

Learn how the GDAC supports over 35 agencies, turning siloed information into the cross-agency insights Georgia’s policymakers need to better serve constituents.

Learn how Somapa Information Technology PCL (SomapaIT), an AWS Partner, chooses Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud to implement DAC systems because of its global footprint, security, high availability, and scalability.

Learn how the Generative AI Innovation Center and Amazon Web Services (AWS), the NWS has developed a proof of concept (POC) to assist with extracting weather and geolocation information from text and images so it can verify the information against scientific data and give forecasters an early start as they document impacts.

Learn how researchers in the University of São Paulo Research Center in Greenhouse Gas Innovation (RCGI) greenhouse gas (GHG) program saw an opportunity to develop a system that enabled close monitoring of the forest using data systems and data spaces in the cloud. They created Digital Amazon, a distributed data space network with open access that integrates CO2 and greenhouse gas emissions data collected by the university with other data sources to support critical and timely climate action and intervention in the Amazon Forest.

Learn how Amazon has committed more than $150 million to support the people of Ukraine. That commitment spans cloud infrastructure, workforce development, humanitarian aid, and direct technical partnerships with government agencies, commercial companies, nonprofits, and communities.
