By migrating their electronic banking system to Amazon Web Services (AWS), Post Bank reduced application deployment time from 2 hours to only 10 minutes, decreased CPU utilization by 40 percent, and dramatically improved system reliability—all while maintaining full compliance with Poland’s stringent financial regulations. This transformation story demonstrates how financial institutions can use AWS Cloud technology to become more agile and efficient without compromising security or regulatory compliance.

Government agencies struggle to modernize citizen experiences while optimizing resources, reducing costs, and enhancing security. Siloed systems, untenable volumes, reduced staff, and manual workflows create an urgent need to modernize the citizen experience and drive efficiencies by using generative AI, agentic AI, automation, and analytics—while paying only for what you use. Amazon Connect—the AWS AI-powered, comprehensive contact center as a service (CCaaS) application—transforms government contact centers of all sizes into modern, efficient, and secure service delivery hubs providing enhanced experiences.

In this post, we provide step-by-step guidance for deploying Malcolm—an open source network traffic analysis suite—natively on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), using the on-demand compute, elasticity, and scalability of AWS to eliminate traditional infrastructure overhead. This approach is particularly beneficial for cost-conscious public sector (federal, state, and local), utility, and industrial customers who require network and security monitoring to deliver on their missions.

In this post, we explore how Service NSW used AWS services to optimize its backup strategies while maintaining strict compliance requirements. By moving from a straightforward turnkey solution to a sophisticated, tiered approach, Service NSW achieved significant cost savings while enhancing its disaster recovery capabilities. The organization’s innovative use of automation for backup testing sets a new standard for efficient backup validation in large-scale database environments.

What if paper forms could be processed at the same speed as digital forms? What if their contents could be automatically entered in the same database as the digital forms? Medicaid agencies could analyze data in near real-time and drive actionable insights on a single dashboard. Whether a provider submits claims electronically or on paper, the claim could be adjudicated using the same process and analyzed the same way, saving both time and money. AI and ML services from AWS allow Medicaid agencies to create this streamlined solution. Moreover, AWS enables the adoption of solutions like this by providing no code or low code serverless services. Read this post to learn more
