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.

In this blog post, learn how the Registry of Open Data on Amazon Web Services (AWS) has surpassed a major milestone: 1,122 datasets are now freely available to anyone.

The AWS Open Data Sponsorship Program makes high-value, cloud-optimized datasets publicly available on Amazon Web Services (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.

It’s a challenge to modernize vast public datasets to meet new and evolving uses. Epimorphics, an AWS Partner, supports government agencies to deliver big data projects efficiently. Government data underpins many important public policy decisions and private sector investments. For example, house price indices influence mortgage lending, and river flow measurements guide flood planning. The data for this vital work must be authoritative, accessible, and available digitally.

Coursera and AWS surveyed more than 750 technology executives across six countries to understand how organizations are balancing automation, human expertise, and infrastructure modernization as they prepare for an AI-driven future. The survey reveals a clear insight: As organizations move toward AI-driven operations, success begins with the cloud.

This post examines how Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP) and NCS—an AWS Generative AI Competency partner and part of AWS Generative AI Innovation Center (GenAIIC) Partner Innovation Alliance (PIA)—reshaped asynchronous learning through an AI Tutor Assistant. The solution enhances student learning while reducing lecturers’ preparation time by 80%, demonstrating the transformative potential of generative AI in education.

Cisco ThousandEyes for Government is a network intelligence platform, hosted on AWS GovCloud (US), that is in process for the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Moderate authorization. It will give government organizations a unified view of network paths, application performance, and service dependencies. By correlating network conditions, cloud architecture, and external factors, the platform will help teams identify and resolve performance issues across hybrid and cloud environments—saving time and effort for internal and external IT staff support.
