Make EOA private keys compatible with AWS KMS

Those who choose to take ownership of digital assets, such as cryptocurrency or non-fungible tokens (NFTs), are faced with a crucial decision when creating a wallet: do they opt to manage their own wallet or delegate that responsibility to a trusted third party? Non-custodial wallet solutions, whereby a user manages their own wallet, are popular […]

Query transaction finality information from public blockchains using Amazon Managed Blockchain Query

In this post, we provide an overview of an enhancement to Amazon Managed Blockchain (AMB) Query which enables you to retrieve data on a public blockchain prior to finalization. AMB Query is a fully managed AWS service that provides high quality blockchain data delivered with sub-second latency to applications via uniform APIs across a number […]

Run Solana nodes on AWS

Solana is a public blockchain built for mass adoption. It’s a high-performance network that is utilized for a range of use cases, including finance, NFTs, payments, and gaming. Solana operates as a single global state machine, and is open and interoperable. In this post, we look into the ways Solana blockchain works, the types of […]

Build on the Polygon network with Amazon Managed Blockchain Access

As builders in the blockchain space work to deliver applications ready for mainstream adoption, they must spend more time developing features and capabilities for their use case and less time on the undifferentiated tasks such as blockchain node operations, blockchain data extraction, and standard API development. Configuring, provisioning, and maintaining a multitude of public blockchain […]

Visualize Ethereum ERC20 token data using Amazon Managed Blockchain Query and Amazon QuickSight

Businesses such as Paxos that issue stablecoin USD tokens want to find a way to identify common token metrics such as top holders, daily active users, daily volume, total number of holders, latest transfers, top Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols the tokens have been used on, and more. With Amazon Managed Blockchain (AMB) Query and Amazon […]

Run Ethereum nodes on AWS

Amazon Managed Blockchain and many partners of AWS offer a convenient way to use Ethereum nodes without operating your own infrastructure. But sometimes, when you want to run archive nodes or participate in Ethereum staking, the managed nodes aren’t enough, and you may choose to run your own Ethereum nodes on AWS. To run a […]

Implement a CI/CD pipeline for Ethereum smart contract development on AWS – Part 2

This post discusses the implementation details of an Ethereum smart contract CI/CD pipeline as outlined in a previous post, which is considered a prerequisite to the topics discussed in this post. Part 1 highlighted some of the challenges faced by a multi-developer team implementing a decentralized application (dApp) and how CI/CD can help address those […]

Use Cosmos technology to deploy an enterprise consortium chain on AWS

Cosmos is a decentralized network of interoperable blockchain networks that serves as an open and highly scalable environment on which to build blockchain applications. With effective support for cross-chain interaction between homogeneous and heterogeneous blockchains, Cosmos aims to extend interoperability to a broader landscape. In this post, we discuss the value and technical architecture of Cosmos and provide a detailed tutorial on the quick deployment of the Cosmos enterprise framework (IRITA) within the AWS environment.

Implement a CI/CD pipeline for Ethereum smart contract development on AWS – Part 1

Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) is a process that automates software development workflows and deploys better quality software that avoids bugs and code failure. CI/CD removes the manual human intervention that was traditionally needed to get code changes from development environments to production servers. With a CI/CD pipeline, code changes are automatically detected, built, […]
