AWS Partner Adastra Supports KWS in Generative AI Adoption
Global seed producer KWS uses Amazon Bedrock and generative artificial intelligence (AI) to boost research speed and efficiency. Supported by Adastra, an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner, KWS can explore new use cases powered by different large language models, knowing it’s operating securely and cost-effectively.
KWS’s work developing new seeds for farmers is a research-intensive business. With scale and security in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud—and support from Adastra, an AWS Partner—it can explore generative artificial intelligence (AI) use cases that help it work more efficiently. Here, Bjørn Øst Hansen, KWS’s senior research lead for knowledge discovery, and Dr. Johannes Mellenthin, Adastra’s vice president of cloud for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, talk about the benefits of using Amazon Bedrock. Access to state-of-the-art large language models gives KWS flexibility, allowing it to prototype and test without significant IT infrastructure costs.

Using the AWS Cloud for handling these kind of models allows us to scale in a way we couldn’t do otherwise. It allows us to prototype these things and test them without having the big costs of setting up a very big IT infrastructure that these models require.”
