Modernizing KYC with AWS serverless solutions and agentic AI for financial services

This post extends IBM’s approach to real-time KYC validation using generative AI, as previously discussed in the post IBM Digital KYC on AWS uses Generative AI to transform Client Onboarding and KYC Operations. It transforms compliance operations through autonomous decision-making and intelligent automation using agentic AI, event-driven architecture, and AWS serverless services. The solution addresses the fundamental limitations of traditional rule-based systems. It provides autonomous decision-making, dynamic adaptation, and intelligent automation that transforms compliance operations.

AWS Cloud architecture diagram for the PACIFIC platform showing a multi-layered system. At the top, a PACIFIC Web Client connects to an Identity & Authorization layer containing Amazon Cognito, AWS IAM, and AWS Secrets Manager. Traffic flows through AWS WAF to an Application Load Balancer within a VPC, which distributes requests to Amazon ECS (AWS Fargate) hosting four containerized microservices: core-modules, integration-module, pcf-exchange-module, and edc-dtr-module. These modules connect to Amazon RDS for relational database storage and Amazon S3 for object storage. External integrations at the bottom include BASF Product Carbon Footprint Services, an EDC/DTR Service Provider, and the Catena-X Automotive Network. The diagram illustrates a secure, microservices-based architecture for automotive industry carbon footprint data exchange.

PACIFIC enables multi-tenant, sovereign product carbon footprint exchange on the Catena-X data space using AWS

This post explores how PACIFIC enables multi-tenant, sovereign PCF exchange on the Catena-X data space using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) on AWS Fargate, Amazon Cognito, and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) to deliver measurable environmental impact and competitive advantage in a carbon-conscious marketplace.

Real-time analytics: Oldcastle integrates Infor with Amazon Aurora and Amazon Quick Sight

This post explores how Oldcastle used AWS services to transform their analytics and AI capabilities by integrating Infor ERP with Amazon Aurora and Amazon Quick Sight. We discuss how they overcame the limitations of traditional cloud ERP reporting to deploy real-time dashboards and build a scalable analytics system. This practical, enterprise-grade approach offers a blueprint that organizations can adapt when extending ERP capabilities with cloud-native analytics and AI.

Build a multi-tenant configuration system with tagged storage patterns

In this post, we demonstrate how you can build a scalable, multi-tenant configuration service using the tagged storage pattern, an architectural approach that uses key prefixes (like tenant_config_ or param_config_) to automatically route configuration requests to the most appropriate AWS storage service. This pattern maintains strict tenant isolation and supports real-time, zero-downtime configuration updates through event-driven architecture, alleviating the cache staleness problem.

Unlock efficient model deployment: Simplified Inference Operator setup on Amazon SageMaker HyperPod

In this post, we walk through the new installation experience, demonstrate three deployment methods (console, CLI, and Terraform), and show how features like multi-instance-type deployment and native node affinity give you fine-grained control over inference scheduling

Automate safety monitoring with computer vision and generative AI

This post describes a solution that uses fixed camera networks to monitor operational environments in near real-time, detecting potential safety hazards while capturing object floor projections and their relationships to floor markings. While we illustrate the approach through distribution center deployment examples, the underlying architecture applies broadly across industries. We explore the architectural decisions, strategies for scaling to hundreds of sites, reducing site onboarding time, synthetic data generation using generative AI tools like GLIGEN, and other critical technical hurdles we overcame.

AWS Backup and replication for Amazon RDS

Streamlining access to powerful disaster recovery capabilities of AWS

In this blog post, we take a building blocks approach. Starting with the tools like AWS Backup to protect your data, we then add protection for Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) compute using AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS). Finally, we show how to use the full capabilities of AWS to restore your entire workload—data, infrastructure, networking, and configuration, using Arpio disaster recovery automation.

Figure 2: Aigen modernized architecture

How Aigen transformed agricultural robotics for sustainable farming with Amazon SageMaker AI

In this post, you will learn how Aigen modernized its machine learning (ML) pipeline with Amazon SageMaker AI to overcome industry-wide agricultural robotics challenges and scale sustainable farming. This post focuses on the strategies and architecture patterns that enabled Aigen to modernize its pipeline across hundreds of distributed edge solar robots and showcase the significant business outcomes unlocked through this transformation. By adopting automated data labeling and human-in-the-loop validation, Aigen increased image labeling throughput by 20x while reducing image labeling costs by 22.5x.

This diagram illustrates a comprehensive continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline architecture using AWS services, featuring feedback loops that connect development, testing, and production environments.

Architecting for agentic AI development on AWS

In this post, we demonstrate how to architect AWS systems that enable AI agents to iterate rapidly through design patterns for both system architecture and code base structure. We first examine the architectural problems that limit agentic development today. We then walk through system architecture patterns that support rapid experimentation, followed by codebase patterns that help AI agents understand, modify, and validate your applications with confidence.

How Generali Malaysia optimizes operations with Amazon EKS

In this post, we look at how Generali is using Amazon EKS Auto Mode and its integration with other AWS services to enhance performance while reducing operational overhead, optimizing costs, and enhancing security.
