Multi-region disaster recovery for Amazon API Gateway WebSocket APIs

Multi-region disaster recovery for Amazon API Gateway WebSocket APIs

Learn how to build multi-region disaster recovery for Amazon API Gateway WebSocket APIs. This design pattern combines Amazon Route 53 DNS failover, Amazon DynamoDB Global Tables, a canary health probe, and client-side reconnection logic to reconnect clients and restore session state automatically during a regional failover.

Agentic antimicrobial resistance surveillance with AWS HealthOmics and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

Agentic antimicrobial resistance surveillance with AWS HealthOmics and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

This post presents a reference architecture that turns public sequencing data into plain-language answers about antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes. It pairs AWS HealthOmics for managed genomics processing with a grounded Amazon Bedrock AgentCore agent, so researchers can ask questions without writing bioinformatics code or SQL.

Deploy Oracle Database step by step on Amazon EVS with FSx for ONTAP

Deploy Oracle Database step by step on Amazon EVS with FSx for ONTAP

This post provides step-by-step procedures to deploy Oracle Database on Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP as NFS datastore storage. You provision storage volumes, mount NFS datastores, install Oracle, and configure SnapMirror replication for cross-region disaster recovery.

Architect highly available Oracle Database on Amazon EVS and FSx for ONTAP

Architect highly available Oracle Database on Amazon EVS and FSx for ONTAP

Learn how to architect a highly available Oracle Database environment on Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP. This post covers EC2 bare metal instance selection, vSAN and FSx storage tiering, NSX networking, and SnapMirror cross-region disaster recovery for enterprises preserving their VMware operational tooling.

Deploy open source Regional availability tools in your VPC

Deploy open source Regional availability tools in your VPC

Deploy AWS Regional availability data as infrastructure you own. Capability Insights for AWS runs a self-hosted dashboard in your VPC that auto-refreshes daily, and Workload Analysis narrows the catalog to the services your account actually runs, so your Regional expansion gap analysis focuses only on what you deploy.

Running multi-day AZ evacuation drills with ARC Zonal Shift

Running multi-day AZ evacuation drills with ARC Zonal Shift

Prove your multi-AZ architecture can sustain a real impairment. This post shows how to run a multi-day (48-72 hour) Availability Zone evacuation drill with ARC Zonal Shift across Amazon ECS, Amazon EKS, Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, and Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL, with step-by-step CLI commands, prerequisites, observability metrics, and restore procedures.

Build adaptive AI interfaces with the AG-UI protocol, agent swarms, and Nova Act on AWS

Build adaptive AI interfaces with the AG-UI protocol, agent swarms, and Nova Act on AWS

Learn how to build AI interfaces that automatically adapt to your agents’ variable outputs, using the AG-UI protocol for dynamic UI generation, the Strands Agents SDK swarm pattern for explainable multi-agent collaboration, and Amazon Nova Act to integrate legacy systems that lack APIs.
