Companies from different industries use data to help their Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) systems make intelligent decisions. For ML systems to work well, it is crucial to make sure that the massive datasets used for training ML models are of the highest quality, minimizing noise that can contribute to less-than-optimal performance. Processing […]

Highly regulated industries, such as finance, healthcare and government, need to exchange business to business files securely. Common protocols like SFTP provide a broadly-supported, standard method for moving files securely across public networks. For some customers, compliance requirements drive a higher bar for their SFTP authentication. To meet more stringent compliance requirements, aside from controlling […]

Every organization should be seeking to optimize resource utilization, aiming for the highest efficacy at the lowest possible cost. To make effective data-driven cost optimization decisions, it’s essential to have relevant data, tools for generating reports, and clear documentation on how to do so. Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) offers serverless, scalable, and fully […]

Organizations may need to transfer large numbers of files from one cloud provider to another for a variety of reasons like workload migration, disaster recovery, or a requirement to process data in other clouds. Data transfers typically require end-to-end encryption, the ability to detect changes, object validation, network throttling, monitoring, and cost optimization. Building a […]

Securely storing and authorizing access to data in the cloud is a top priority. One challenge faced by organizations is developing a consistent authorization experience to grant access to data for hybrid architectures. Workloads running on AWS can access data stored on services like Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) using AWS Identity and Access […]

Do you ever wonder how you can keep up with incoming requests for increased storage capacity without having to expand data center footprint, increase utility spend, and continually handle hardware refresh cycles? Customers are looking to free up space from on-premises storage systems or other clouds, whether it is for existing archival datasets, transitioning their […]

When I talk with customers about their file storage, I frequently get asked “How can I determine the right throughput capacity for my file storage?” The simple answer is through monitoring the performance of your workload to determine the right performance configuration for your file storage. Throughput modes for Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) determine […]

Organizations in regulated industries are frequently required to maintain a copy of their business-critical file data in another location to meet corporate compliance or disaster recovery (DR) mandates. Furthermore, in highly distributed environments, applications need a reliable method to move or copy their file data to a different location for low latency access or to […]

Training Machine Learning models involves multiple steps, it gets more complex and time consuming when the size of the data set for training is in the range of 100s of GBs. Data Scientists run through large number of experiments and research which includes testing and training large number of models. Kubeflow provides various ML capabilities […]
