Healthcare providers manage an ever-growing volume of patient data and medication information to help ensure safe, effective treatment. Although traditional database systems excel at storing patient records, they require complex queries to access information. By adding generative AI capabilities, healthcare providers can now use natural language to search patient records and verify medication safety, rather than writing complex database queries. In this post, I show you a solution that uses Amazon Bedrock and Amazon DynamoDB to create an AI agent that helps healthcare providers quickly identify potential drug interactions by validating new prescriptions against a patient’s current medication records.

In this post, we discuss the fully managed approach using Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases to simplify the integration of the data source with your generative AI application using Aurora. Amazon Bedrock is a fully managed service that makes foundation models (FMs) from leading AI startups and Amazon available through an API, so you can choose from a wide range of FMs to find the model that is best suited for your use case.

In this post, we look at two capabilities in Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases that make it easier to build RAG workflows with Amazon Aurora Serverless v2 as the vector store. The first capability helps you easily create an Aurora Serverless v2 knowledge base to use with Amazon Bedrock and the second capability enables you to automate deploying your RAG workflow across environments.
