Optimizing fleet operations using Amazon SageMaker AI and Amazon Bedrock
In this post, we’ll explore how to maximize the value of dashcam footage through best practices for implementing and managing Computer Vision systems in commercial fleet operations. We’ll demonstrate how to build and deploy edge-based machine learning models that provide real-time alerts for distracted driving behaviors, while effectively collecting, processing, and analyzing footage to train these AI models.
Empower your teams with modern architecture governance
Modern cloud architectures demand a new governance approach. In this post, we show how collaborative architecture oversight can transform team performance through automation, self-service platforms, and distributed decision-making.
Build and operate an effective architecture review board
In this post, we identify the components of an efficient architecture review process, define what an ARB is, and describe how to build and operate an effective enterprise ARB.

In this post, we walk you step-by-step through dacadoo’s journey of embracing managed services, highlighting their architectural decisions as we go.
Master architecture decision records (ADRs): Best practices for effective decision-making
In this post, you’ll learn how to implement Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) in your organization, based on best practices developed from experience with over 200 ADRs across multiple projects. You’ll also discover practical tips for streamlining architectural decision-making, see real-world examples from projects with teams ranging from 10 to over 100 members, and understand the common challenges in architecture decision-making and how ADRs can help address them.
Pilot light with reserved capacity: How to optimize DR cost using On-Demand Capacity Reservations
In this post, we explore an intermediate strategy between the pilot light and the warm standby strategies: pilot light with reserved capacity. You can use this strategy to reserve compute capacity in a secondary Region while also limiting cost.
Build an enterprise API management solution using Amazon API Gateway
This blog post shows how you can use Amazon API Gateway—along with AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, and other AWS services—to create a comprehensive and customizable APIM solution. This solution addresses the complex requirements of large enterprises managing APIs at scale.
Realizing twelve-factors with the AWS Well-Architected Framework
Organizations that are interested in improving their development velocity that follow the principles of the twelve-factor app might find benefits in understanding how to realize those concepts on Amazon Web Services (AWS). In this post, I will help you correlate the twelve-factors app concepts as you architect solutions on AWS.
Create a serverless custom retry mechanism for stateless queue consumers
In this post, we propose a solution that handles serverless retries when the workflow’s state isn’t managed by an additional service.
