First Horizon funded Proof of Concept

An AWS Proof of Concept involves using Amazon Web Services to implement and test a specific solution or concept. It allows organizations to assess the practicality and effectiveness of utilizing AWS services for their particular needs. This process helps in making informed decisions before investing in a full-scale deployment.

Here's a general outline of an AWS POC

Identifying the Problem or Opportunity: Define the problem or opportunity you want to address using AWS services. This could range from optimizing existing processes to exploring new capabilities enabled by AWS.

Designing the Solution: Develop a plan for how AWS services will be used to address the identified problem or opportunity. This involves choosing the appropriate AWS services, architecting the solution, and outlining the necessary configurations.

Implementation: Set up the infrastructure and deploy the necessary resources on AWS according to the designed solution. This step involves configuring services, setting up networks, and integrating components.

Testing and Evaluation: Conduct tests to ensure that the solution works as intended. Evaluate the performance, scalability, and cost-effectiveness of the AWS-based solution. Gather feedback from stakeholders.

Documentation: Document the entire process, including the design, implementation steps, and outcomes. This documentation is valuable for future reference and can be used to guide a full-scale deployment if the POC is successful.

Decision Making: Based on the results of the POC, make an informed decision on whether to proceed with a larger-scale implementation using AWS or explore alternative solutions.

An AWS POC is a crucial step for organizations considering the adoption of AWS services, allowing them to mitigate risks and make data-driven decisions before making significant investments.
