Federal agencies typically collect, manage, use, and distribute a wide array of documents. Storing and distributing federal agency documents is often a complicated process; documents can range from structured formats to free-flowing documentation with personal identifiable information (PII) that needs careful redaction. And because federal agencies cover a wide breadth of domains, it is challenging to develop a one-size-fits-all approach for document processing. In this post, we explore an example of how a federal agency can use Amazon Web Services (AWS) to design and deploy a solution that addresses this document processing challenge.

With the Internet of Things (IoT), selecting the right communication protocol ensures efficient data exchange and seamless connectivity between devices and the cloud. With a multitude of IoT protocols available, choosing the one that best suits your specific use case can be challenging. In this blog, we explore four common protocols used to connect IoT devices to the cloud and shed light on when and where to deploy them for optimal results.

In Modernizing tax systems with AWS, we briefly touched upon infrastructure and application modernization using microservices and serverless architectures. We hear from multiple tax and labor agencies about their desire to move to API-based architectures and adopt new technologies. In this post, we dive deeper into these areas and discuss benefits, approaches, and best practices for building modern tax and unemployment insurance (UI) applications using microservices.

Governments worldwide dedicate a significant portion of their IT budget to maintaining legacy technology systems. This can pose security and operational continuity challenges and governments seek to address this challenge. Amazon Web Services (AWS) public sector government transformation specialists researched what technology leaders in government and in the highly regulated private sector believe their main IT challenges are. This post summarizes the insights and suggests four approaches to consider.

This post explains how healthcare organizations and partners can use Amazon Web Services (AWS) to build secure and scalable infrastructure for secondary usage of health data in alignment with the European Health Data Space (EHDS). This is the first of two posts describing an AWS reference architecture for EHDS. The second post will provide step-by-step technical guidance on how to implement this reference architecture on AWS.

Nonprofit organizations (NPOs) and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) focusing on sustainability are dedicated to fostering a healthy environment, preserving our planet, and providing a livable future for upcoming generations. This post highlights how NPOs and NGOs across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region use Amazon Web Services (AWS) to drive their missions. It also addresses the challenges they face in digital transformation and offers resources to navigate those challenges.

Welcome to the frontier of public sector innovation, where artificial intelligence (AI) is not just a buzzword but a tool for transformative change. As citizens’ expectations evolve and the need for rapid, accurate information becomes more pronounced, state and local governments seek smarter ways to keep pace. Enter Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and large language models (LLMs)—the dynamic duo powering the next wave of efficient state and local government services.

In this post, we explore how healthcare and life sciences organizations can embrace the data mesh and data as a product (DaaP) principles to unlock the full potential of their health data, drive faster and more efficient drug development, and ultimately, bring life-saving treatments to patients more quickly. We also showcase the Amazon Web Services (AWS) services that support the journey towards effective data management and alignment with data mesh principles.

IT marketplaces offer a new way of approaching software procurement. In the case of AWS Marketplace, Amazon Web Services (AWS) is not a software reseller but the marketplace provider. And software vendors, channel partners, and professional services providers are all sellers within AWS Marketplace. Read this post to learn more about how AWS Marketplace contracts work.
