Introduction Continuous improvement depends on experimentation. Teams know that the fastest path to better outcomes is to test changes against real user behavior, measure results, and iterate. In practice, sustaining that cycle is slow and costly because the overhead compounds with each attempt. Three barriers slow teams down: 1. Planning cost — Turning a proposed […]

AWS Health Planned Lifecycle Events signal when a managed service version is nearing end of standard support. Learn how to automate these upgrades end to end with AWS DevOps Agent and Kiro: detect the event, investigate the upgrade path, apply validated code changes, and open a pull request for human review.

Introduction Organizations that use feature flags alongside incident response tooling often connect the two manually. When an outage occurs, engineers must identify which flags are relevant, decide whether to disable them, and coordinate the change across teams. This manual process adds latency at the moment it matters most. You can use AWS DevOps Agent and […]

Introduction Modernizing applications by upgrading language runtimes, migrating SDKs, and refactoring frameworks is important for cloud adoption but can be labor-intensive at scale. Each repository requires analysis of dependencies and transformation needs; custom transformation logic must be built and validated, and changes are often executed sequentially across codebases. If you have hundreds of applications, this […]

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a protocol designed to standardize interactions with Generative AI models, making it easier to build and manage AI applications. It provides a consistent way to communicate context with different types of models, regardless of where they’re hosted or how they’re implemented. The protocol helps bridge the gap between model deployment […]

Landing Zone Accelerator on AWS (LZA) enables customers to deploy a flexible, configuration-driven solution to establish a landing zone while also leveraging AWS Control Tower. At AWS Professional Services, we’ve helped customers deploy and configure LZA hundreds of times. A common request we encounter is integrating LZA configuration into customers’ existing GitOps workflows. GitOps has […]

For several years, AWS Solutions Constructs have helped thousands of AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) users accelerate their creation of well-architected workloads by providing small, composable patterns linking two or more AWS services, such as an Amazon S3 bucket triggering an AWS Lambda function. Over this time, customers with use cases that don’t match an […]

Graphic created by Kevon Mayers. Introduction As customers increasingly seek to harness the power of generative AI (GenAI) and machine learning to deliver cutting-edge applications, the need for a flexible, intuitive, and scalable development platform has never been greater. In this landscape, Streamlit has emerged as a standout tool, making it easy for developers to […]

Amazon CodeCatalyst is a unified service that streamlines the entire software development lifecycle, empowering teams to build, deliver, and scale applications on AWS. DevSecOps is the practice of integrating security into all stages of software development. Rather than prioritizing features, it injects security into an earlier phase of the development process – baking it into […]

Many AWS customers run their mission-critical workloads across multiple AWS regions to serve geographically dispersed customer base, meet disaster recovery objectives or address local laws and regulations. Amazon CodeCatalyst is a unified software development service designed to streamline and accelerate the process of building and delivering applications on AWS. It is an all-in-one platform for […]
