Why is it important to have a cloud roadmap? To my understanding, a cloud roadmap is an essential requirement both for the whole cloud journey and for the business. For example, if we were talking about a trip to another country, you would want to plan as much as possible, wouldn’t you? You would need […]

This week, the AWS IoT Device SDK for Swift reached general availability. As a member of the Swift Server Workgroup (SSWG), this one caught my attention. The SDK brings production-ready MQTT 5 connectivity, Device Shadow, Jobs, and fleet provisioning to Swift developers on macOS, iOS, tvOS, and Linux. I’m curious to see what you will build with it. […]

As a developer advocate working with web and mobile application developers, I’ve often heard about the need to maintain consistent user authentication in the unlikely event of a regional service interruption. The increasing use of agentic AI, microservices, automation, and service accounts has sparked a similar need for machine-to-machine authentication. Today, I’m excited to share […]

Walk into most engineering teams and you’ll find dashboards for everything. Everything except what’s actually flowing through the system. Ask an engineer what they track in a live ML deployment. You’ll get the full tour — latency dashboards, error rate alerts, compute utilization graphs. Useful? Sure. But then ask whether they’re watching feature distributions, schema […]

According to OpenAI, GPT-5.5 and GPT-5.4 models are excellent for coding, reasoning, agentic workflows, and complex professional work. […]

In my last Week in Review post, I shared what I’d been hearing from customers in the AI-Driven Development Lifecycle (AI-DLC) workshops I’ve been delivering. Last week I was back at it, this time in Denver for a two-day AI-DLC workshop, where I helped facilitate 17 teams to deliver nearly 20 separate use cases in […]

I am not aware if there have been studies investigating what missteps financial services organizations have actually taken. But one doesn’t necessarily need such studies to draw conclusions regarding what it cost them in time, money, or credibility. Imagine an institution handling customer requests for withdrawals and deposits, the processing of a mortgage application, or […]

Today, we’re announcing the next generation of AWS Resilience Hub with a significantly expanded experience that brings together a new application model, dependency discovery assessment, generative AI-powered failure mode analysis, modular resilience policies, and organization-wide reporting. Organizations running hundreds of applications share a common challenge: availability is a top concern, yet there is no consistent […]
