AWS Architecture Blog

Well, it’s been another historic year! We’ve watched in awe as the use of real-world generative AI has changed the tech landscape, and while we at the Architecture Blog happily participated, we also made every effort to stay true to our channel’s original scope, and your readership this last year has proven that decision was […]

In this post, you’ll learn how to implement Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) in your organization, based on best practices developed from experience with over 200 ADRs across multiple projects. You’ll also discover practical tips for streamlining architectural decision-making, see real-world examples from projects with teams ranging from 10 to over 100 members, and understand the common challenges in architecture decision-making and how ADRs can help address them.

In this post, we explore an intermediate strategy between the pilot light and the warm standby strategies: pilot light with reserved capacity. You can use this strategy to reserve compute capacity in a secondary Region while also limiting cost.

This blog post shows how you can use Amazon API Gateway—along with AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, and other AWS services—to create a comprehensive and customizable APIM solution. This solution addresses the complex requirements of large enterprises managing APIs at scale.

This blog post will show you how to use the power of ML to build a fraud-detection model using Amazon SageMaker Canvas, a no-code/low-code ML service that business analysts and domain experts can use to build, train, and deploy ML models without requiring extensive ML expertise.

In this post, we share how WellRight optimized the cost and performance of their application through a ground-up modernization to an event-driven architecture.

Organizations that are interested in improving their development velocity that follow the principles of the twelve-factor app might find benefits in understanding how to realize those concepts on Amazon Web Services (AWS). In this post, I will help you correlate the twelve-factors app concepts as you architect solutions on AWS.

In this post, we propose a solution that handles serverless retries when the workflow’s state isn’t managed by an additional service.

In this post, we show how Clario uses the AWS platform to accelerate clinical document analysis.

In this post, we follow Nielsen’s journey to build a robust and scalable architecture while enjoying linear scaling. We start by examining the initial challenges Nielsen faced and the root causes behind these issues. Then, we explore Nielsen’s solution: running Spark on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) while adopting serverless concepts.
