The­ Digital Transformation Hub (DxHub) at California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) in San Luis Obispo – powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and part of the AWS Cloud Innovation Centers (CIC) program – collaborated with the City of San Diego and the San Diego Cyber Center of Excellence (CCOE) to create ‘My eCISO,’ a generative artificial intelligence (AI)-based application that propels public and private organizations on a path to cyber resiliency. This post explores the technology behind My eCISO and its implications for organizations looking to protect against attacks.

In this post, you will learn how to deploy Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud Intelligence Dashboards (CID) using the Landing Zone Accelerator on AWS (LZA) solution. In doing so, you will learn how to customize your LZA deployment using the customizations-config.yaml file. By utilizing the LZA and CID together, you can streamline the deployment process, ensure compliance with best practices, and gain valuable insights into your cloud environment, ultimately leading to improved operational efficiency, enhanced security, and better-informed decision-making.

How do you predict and prepare for your citizens’ health and wellness needs during the COVID-19 pandemic? Healthier Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care System (ICS) quickly scaled a platform on AWS to support the 1.8 million people in their region with Nexus Intelligence, an interactive health intelligence application with a suite of predictive models against various measures of need and health outcomes. Nexus Intelligence not only supported the ICS response to the pandemic, but is expected to help reconfigure and re-invest in services to improve the health and well-being of the population and reduce health inequalities.

To help protect investments on ML, government organizations can securely store ML source code. Storing Amazon SageMaker Studio code in an AWS CodeCommit repository enables you to keep them as standalone documents to reuse in the future. SageMaker Studio provides a single, web-based visual interface where you can perform all ML development steps required to prepare data and build, train, and deploy models. Read on to learn the steps to configure a git-based repository on CodeCommit to manage ML code developed with SageMaker.

Modern data engineering covers several key components of building a modern data lake. Most databases and data warehouses, to an extent, do not lend themselves well to a DevOps model. DataOps grew out of frustrations trying to build a scalable, reusable data pipeline in an automated fashion. DataOps was founded on applying DevOps principles on top of data lakes to help build automated solutions in a more agile manner. With DataOps, users apply principles of data processing on the data lake to curate and collect the transformed data for downstream processing. One reason that DevOps was hard on databases was because testing was hard to automate on such systems. At California State University Chancellors Office (CSUCO), we took a different approach by residing most of our logic with a programming framework that allows us to build a testable platform. Learn how to apply DataOps in ten steps.
