More and more organizations are using cloud-based open source to build, manage, and secure systems. Many organizations are adopting open source without even realizing it when they choose to use managed services. An example of this wide-spread use is found in Kubernetes, the most popular container orchestration system. Whether you’re Read more…

Patient matching is a major obstacle in achieving healthcare interoperability. Mismatched patient records and inability to retrieve patient history can cause significant barriers to informed clinical decision-making and result in missed diagnoses or delayed treatments. Additionally, healthcare providers often invest in patient data deduplication, especially when the number of patient Read more…
Wake up! It’s HighScalability time: [embedded content] Formation of a single massive galaxy through time in the TNG50 cosmic simulation.

It does so with more than 20 billion particles representing dark matter, stars, cosmic Read more…
Today, AWS is introducing Express Workflows for AWS Step Functions. This is a new workflow type to orchestrate AWS services at a higher-throughput than existing workflows. Developers have been using AWS Step Functions since December 2016 to assemble long running workflows to orchestrate AWS Lambda Functions and other serverless services. Read more…
The AWS Serverless platform allows you to build applications that automatically scale in response to demand. During periods of high volume, Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda scale automatically in response to incoming load. Often developers must access data stored in relational databases from Lambda functions. But it can be challenging to ensure that your Lambda Read more…
AWS Lambda pretty much single-handedly kick-started the serverless movement we find ourselves in. A compute service with automated scaling and complete elimination of machine or container maintenance. However, some of the characteristics of the service made it a little less than desirable for certain workloads. If you were trying to Read more…
Two of the most popular machine learning models used today are BERT, for natural language processing (NLP), and Mask R-CNN, for image recognition. Over the past several months, AWS has significantly improved the underlying infrastructure, network, machine learning (ML) framework, and model code to achieve the best training time for Read more…
When I was delivering the Architecting on AWS class, customers often asked me how to configure an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud to enforce the same network security policies in the cloud as they have on-premises. For example, to scan all ingress traffic with an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) appliance or Read more…
