In this blog, we discuss how government agencies can evaluate and implement AWS alternatives to traditional Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) deployments while maintaining mission-critical availability.

AWS Professional Services has partnered with the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS), part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), alongside GAMA-1 Technologies to broaden the scope and capabilities of the NESDIS Common Cloud Framework (NCCF). This work supports NOAA’s ability to ingest, manage, process, and disseminate critical environmental data. Read this post to learn more.

This post demonstrates how to build serverless workflows on AWS that process such data using AWS Step Functions and integrate with downstream systems that have concurrency limitations.

Many government agencies rely on critical applications running on legacy systems, which is highlighted in a 2023 report by the Government Accountability Office (GAO). These applications are typically monolithic, built on outdated technologies that necessitate workarounds, lack scalability, and incur escalating operational costs. The GAO report identified numerous federal IT legacy systems in urgent need of modernization. To address these challenges, Booz Allen Hamilton, an AWS Partner, offers innovative solutions using multi-tenant architectures. This post delves into one such mission-critical application developed for a large-scale federal agency, showcasing how modern cloud technologies can transform legacy government systems.

What if a Medicaid agency could make sure that their leadership and staff had access to a reliable, single source of truth for their data in one unified platform? The implementation of an operational data store (ODS) presents a viable solution. This post explains the architectural choices available with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to effectively create and maintain an ODS.

In this post, we discuss a solution that uses AWS services to improve government communication accessibility and meet federal accessibility requirements. The serverless architecture automates document-to-speech conversion and delivers information to citizens with visual disabilities.

In this post, we describe how AWS Partner CIMAR’s medical image management platform is enabling the rapid roll-out, scaling, and operation of the National Health Service (NHS) England’s national lung cancer program, connecting 124 acute NHS trusts and multiple mobile scanning units.

Personalized therapy for diseases such as cancer utilizes an individual’s unique genomic profile to guide treatment decisions. However, the effect and clinical significance of most genetic variants are uncertain. Accurate classification of the clinical significance of novel genetic variants requires extensive curation of peer-reviewed biomedical literature. In recent years, generative AI has demonstrated promising results in information extraction and text summarization. In this post, we explore how various AWS-native solutions can be used to create a secure, retrieval-augmented, and cost-effective biomedical chatbot designed to facilitate biocuration.
