In my last Week in Review post, I shared what I’d been hearing from customers in the AI-Driven Development Lifecycle (AI-DLC) workshops I’ve been delivering. Last week I was back at it, this time in Denver for a two-day AI-DLC workshop, where I helped facilitate 17 teams to deliver nearly 20 separate use cases in

Financial analytics at enterprise scale is unforgiving. Queries must return in seconds, not minutes. Thousands of finance professionals need concurrent access during monthly close cycles. And when data volumes grow from hundreds of gigabytes to terabytes, spanning billions of records, the infrastructure underneath must scale without forcing engineers to choose between performance and cost. This

AWS Network Firewall now supports native attachment to AWS Transit Gateway. Customers commonly use Transit Gateway to route traffic from Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) networks to a centralized inspection VPC (a VPC dedicated to hosting firewall endpoints for traffic inspection) where their network firewall endpoints are deployed. This centralized deployment model reduces the

Network administrators face a persistent challenge: maintaining domain blocklists and allowlists that keep pace with the internet. New websites and services emerge daily, and keeping these lists current requires constant manual updates that leave gaps in coverage. This challenge intensifies when managing access to rapidly evolving categories like AI services, where new tools launch on

Organizations managing thousands of Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes across multiple AWS Regions have a significant cost optimization opportunity: migrating from gp2 to gp3 can deliver up to 20% savings, as highlighted by AWS Cost Optimization Hub. With AWS providing the ModifyVolume API for in-place, zero-downtime conversions, the path to savings is clear.

Today, we announce the Amazon Aurora MySQL power for Kiro. The power connects Kiro’s AI agent to Aurora MySQL and pairs live database access with curated best-practice guidance. You describe what you need in natural language. The agent generates the API calls, SQL, and configuration for you to review and run. In this post, we walk through how the power guides a production migration from Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for MySQL 8.0 to Aurora MySQL through four phases: assessment, replica creation, promotion, and post-cutover validation.

Confirmation bias is one of the most common reasons incident investigations take longer than they should. An on-call engineer gets alerted, forms a theory based on initial triage and experience, finds one piece of supporting evidence, and stops looking. The actual root cause — buried in a different service, a different signal, a different time

Amazon receives millions of visits every day, and earning each customer’s trust visit after visit is the foundation that the store is built on. A meaningful part of that trust comes down to whether the recommendations we surface feel relevant and whether they reflect what the customer actually cares about in the moment. In this post, we describe an architecture that makes it achievable. Amazon SageMaker hosts a sentence transformer model on a managed endpoint and turns customer query text into dense semantic vectors. Valkey is an open source, in-memory data store with built-in vector search. It’s available on AWS through Amazon ElastiCache and Amazon MemoryDB. In our architecture, we use Amazon-managed Valkey to store the product catalog as a vector index.

By implementing modern optimization techniques for Aurora, you can achieve additional cost reduction beyond traditional methods alone. This isn’t only about spending less—it’s about building a more efficient, scalable, and resilient database environment. In this post, we show you a structured approach to optimizing Amazon Aurora database costs. It outlines specific strategies, implementation steps, and best practices across different optimization areas.

This is Part 3 of our three-part series on Amazon S3 audit logging. In Part 1, we covered server access logs for HTTP-level requests and performance analysis. In Part 2, we covered S3 data events in AWS CloudTrail for identity-focused security investigations. As data volumes grow and storage costs become a significant line item, organizations

This is Part 2 of our three-part series on Amazon S3 audit logging, focusing on identity-driven security investigations. In Part 1, we covered S3 server access logs for HTTP-level performance analysis and cost attribution. When a security incident occurs—an unauthorized download, a bulk deletion, or suspicious access from an unfamiliar location—the first question is always,

Organizations storing sensitive data must maintain complete visibility into how it’s accessed, by whom, and what changes occur over time. Regulatory frameworks demand detailed audit trails, security teams need rapid answers during investigations, and finance teams require granular cost attribution. Yet as data grows from terabytes to petabytes, the scale that makes centralized storage attractive

Managing storage efficiently in a multi-user environment is a critical yet often overlooked aspect of cloud infrastructure design. When you combine AWS Transfer Family with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP, you unlock a robust, enterprise-grade file transfer solution. However, without effective quota controls, a single user or process can consume disproportionate storage, leading to performance
