At California Community Colleges (CCC), administrators estimate that nearly one in five applications is fraudulent. That creates a difficult choice for the college system, whose core mission is to make higher education as accessible as possible. To intelligently and thoughtfully flag fraud at scale without restricting students’ ability to apply, the CCC turned to Amazon Web Services (AWS) and AWS partner, Pariveda Solutions, to develop a solution. In this blog post, you will learn how CCC and Pariveda built a machine learning (ML)-powered fraud detection and prevention solution that helps identify and manage fraudulent accounts before they reach the campuses.

PartyRock, an Amazon Bedrock playground from Amazon Web Services (AWS), makes creating artificial intelligence (AI) applications simple and engaging—even if you have never written a line of code. With just a few steps, you can build your own AI assistant to help with homework, share with friends, or spark new creative ideas. Read this post to learn more.

The AWS Open Data Sponsorship Program makes high-value, cloud-optimized datasets publicly available on AWS. AWS works with data providers to democratize access to data by making it available to the public for analysis on AWS; develop new cloud-based techniques, formats, and tools that lower the cost of working with data; and encourage the development of communities that benefit from access to shared datasets. Through the AWS Open Data Sponsorship Program, customers are making over 300 PB of high-value, cloud-optimized data available for public use.

With the support of the AWS Imagine Grant program, which provides both financial and technical support, Challenger Center is revolutionizing its nationwide STEM education delivery by transitioning its proprietary software, SIM3+, to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud infrastructure.

The Coupon Bureau (TCB) is modernizing how coupons work in the US with the first universal digital coupon standard: AI (8112). To make this possible, TCB needed to build a system that could support billions of coupon transactions in real time, integrate seamlessly with hundreds of providers and retailers, and deliver mission-critical reliability. By using AWS services, TCB designed a cloud-based architecture that processes high-volume events, delivers real-time webhook notifications, provides data recovery during outages, and scales seamlessly as adoption grows.

The new AWS whitepaper “Health Data Marketplace: Driving Data Strategy in Multi-Cloud Health Systems” introduces Health Data Marketplaces as a health data strategy and a fresh architectural approach designed to help healthcare organizations decouple value creation from operational complexity. The Health Data Marketplace concept enables a “search, shop, and serve” experience for datasets, insights, and AI applications—allowing clinicians, researchers, regulators, and life sciences partners to collaborate on trusted data assets across multiple clouds.

The University of Maryland Libraries serves 41,000 students across six physical libraries on its College Park campus. Like many academic institutions, the libraries relied on aging on-premises infrastructure to support their digital services and operations. When the libraries’ IT team faced deteriorating hardware, rising licensing costs, and personnel constraints that threatened operations, they made a strategic decision: retire their data center entirely and transform their infrastructure with AWS.

In this post, we explore how a graph-based student assessment system powered by AWS services can bring automation, accuracy, and adaptability to the standards-alignment process. With this modern approach, EdTech platforms can deliver scalable, standards-compliant, and personalized learning experiences across K12 learning environments.

Netsmart, an industry-leading healthcare IT platform organization, serving the human services, post-acute care, payers, public sector, physical therapy, and rehabilitation communities, became the first designated Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN) built entirely on serverless, cloud-first technology in August 2025—and it did so with Amazon Web Services (AWS) technology.

Libraries are a treasure trove of knowledge, but finding what you need—especially in vast digital collections like the ones housed at Northwestern University Libraries (NUL)—isn’t always straightforward. That’s why the university chose AWS to help them build a new, multilingual, generative artificial intelligence (AI) powered search tool—one that makes its expansive collections more accessible, intuitive, and inclusive for all.
