October 2026: This post was reviewed and updated for accuracy. Today we’re launching the AWS Digital Sovereignty Lens, a new Well-Architected lens providing customers with extended guidance for designing, building, and operating sovereign workloads on AWS. Customers tell us that digital sovereignty brings a unique set of challenges that existing architecture guidance doesn’t fully address. […]

In this post, we show you how to run a one-hour prioritization session with your stakeholders, plot competing initiatives on a shared matrix by cost and impact and turn the result into an actionable architecture backlog – using a framework called Tech Roadmap Prioritization (TRP).

In this post, we show how to build a comprehensive scalable user search layer on top of Amazon Cognito using AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon OpenSearch Service.

In this post, we show you how to build a hybrid multi-tenant architecture that provides strong tenant isolation without requiring per-tenant AWS accounts. You learn how to configure Route 53 weighted routing to distribute traffic across multiple accounts, deploy Application Load Balancer listener rules for tenant-specific routing, create dedicated ECS clusters per tenant, and establish AWS PrivateLink connectivity to shared dependencies.

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.

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.

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.

This post describes why ProGlove chose a account-per-tenant approach for our serverless SaaS architecture and how it changes the operational model. It covers the challenges you need to anticipate around automation, observability and cost. We will also discuss how the approach can affect other operational models in different environments like an enterprise context.

In this post, we explore how the Amazon Key team used Amazon EventBridge to modernize their architecture, transforming a tightly coupled monolithic system into a resilient, event-driven solution. We explore the technical challenges we faced, our implementation approach, and the architectural patterns that helped us achieve improved reliability and scalability. The post covers our solutions for managing event schemas at scale, handling multiple service integrations efficiently, and building an extensible architecture that accommodates future growth.

In this post, we explore how Artera used Amazon Web Services (AWS) to develop and scale their AI-powered prostate cancer test, accelerating time to results and enabling personalized treatment recommendations for patients.
