Building and training generative artificial intelligence (AI) models, as well as predicting and providing accurate and insightful outputs requires a significant amount of infrastructure. There’s a lot of data that goes into generating the high-quality synthetic text, images, and other media outputs that large-language models (LLMs), as well as foundational models (FMs), create. To start, […]

Directly invoking AWS AppSync GraphQL API targets from EventBridge simplifies and streamlines integration between these two services, ideal for notifying a variety of subscribers of data changes in event-driven workloads. You can also take advantage of other features available from the two services.

Accessing on-premises resources with workers controlled via Step Functions using MQTT and AWS IoT Core is a secure, reactive, and cost effective way to run on-premises jobs. Consider updating your hybrid workloads from using inefficient polling or schedulers to the reactive approach described in this post.
