California Credit Union enhances disaster recovery and backup of Fiserv DNA core banking system on AWS
California Credit Union successfully used AWS to enhance its disaster recovery and backup capabilities for its core banking system, Fiserv DNA. This post explores how the credit union overcame challenges, improved its resilience, and set the stage for future innovations in financial services.
How NIH scientists unlocked cardiovascular disease insights using AWS
Scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recently uncovered how a structure known as low-density lipoprotein (LDL), which transports “bad” cholesterol through the bloodstream, interacts with its receptor molecule to enter cells—information that has eluded researchers for decades. The findings could lead to more personalized treatments for cardiovascular disease and were enabled by cutting-edge high performance computing (HPC) infrastructure from AWS.

Breaking barriers: How AWS is revolutionizing the accessibility of federal agency communications for people with visual disabilities
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.
From inaccessible to inclusive: How the new PDF accessibility remediation solution helps institutions compliantly address accessibility requirements
Public entities must make sure that their digital content is accessible for people with disabilities. PDF documents can present challenging accessibility issues. In this post, we discuss an innovative, open source, and AI-driven solution to automate the remediation of these PDFs and bring them into compliance with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 standards.
AWS demonstrates resilient and secure edge-to-cloud at Department of Defense exercise
The US Department of Defense (DoD) increasingly relies on commercial efforts to adopt and integrate novel and emerging technologies that are critical for mission success. The modern defense landscape evolves rapidly, and industry collaboration is a key component of success. AWS has risen to the challenge to fulfill this commercial- and collaborative-focused approach to advancing military innovation. Most recently, AWS did so through its participation in the Technology Readiness Experimentation (T-REX) series of events with partner General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT),
