Accelerating AWS Infrastructure Deployment: A Practical Guide to Console-to-Code
In today’s cloud-first environment, Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has become crucial for managing cloud resources effectively. However, organizations often face significant challenges in adopting IaC practices, including steep learning curves, complex syntax requirements, and difficulty translating manual operations into code. Amazon Q Developer‘s Console-to-Code feature addresses these challenges by providing an intuitive bridge between manual AWS […]
Multi Agent Collaboration with Strands
In the evolving landscape of autonomous systems, multi-agent collaboration is becoming not only feasible but necessary. As agents gain more capabilities, like advanced reasoning, adaptation, and tool use, the challenge shifts from individual performance to effective coordination. The question is no longer “can an agent solve a task?” but “how do we organize execution across […]
AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) Launches Refactor
We are excited to announce a new AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) feature that makes it easier and safer to refactor your infrastructure as code. CDK Refactor aims to preserve your AWS resources as you rename constructs, move resources between stacks, and reorganize your CDK applications – operations that previously risked resource replacement. When writing […]
Introducing an Interactive Code Review Experience with Amazon Q Developer in GitHub
Code reviews are one of the most valuable rituals in software development. They help ensure quality, maintain consistency, and foster growth as engineers. But they’re also one of the most time consuming steps in the software development lifecycle. A common pattern I’ve seen is a developer opening a pull request (PR), receiving automated or peer […]
Measuring Developer Productivity with Amazon Q Developer and Jellyfish
Modern software development teams face increasing pressure to deliver high-quality code faster, while managing growing system complexity. Developers often spend significant time on necessary, but undifferentiated work, or “toil”. Toil is often manual, repetitive, and of limited enduring value, making it a strong candidate for automation or delegation to generative AI tools. The re:Invent 2024 […]
