For customers looking to implement a GxP-compliant environment on AWS, we have released a new whitepaper: GxP Systems on AWS.

Access Whitepaper

This whitepaper provides essential information and guidance on building GxP-regulated systems using AWS services, and outlines how AWS approaches GxP-related compliance and security. Building on our previous GxP guidance, the content of this new whitepaper was developed based on experience with and feedback from AWS pharmaceutical and medical device customers, as well as AWS partners.

“AWS lays the foundational security and regulatory elements that Aizon builds upon to bring world-class, GxP-compliant AI software to the world’s most regulated companies.”  -Pep Gubau, CTO & Co-Founder at Aizon
