University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust digitizes and improves patient experience with AWS
Like many healthcare providers, University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire (UHCW) NHS Trust, which manages two major hospitals and serves a population of more than one million, has operated with legacy technology that relies heavily on phone calls and manual processes for contacting patients. Recognizing an opportunity to modernize, the Trust linked up with IBM Consulting for an innovative pilot project to digitize patient engagement channels using HAQM Web Services (AWS).

Building a secure and low-code bioinformatics workbench on AWS HealthOmics
Singapore General Hospital (SGH), SingHealth Office of Academic Informatics (OAI), and HAQM Web Services (AWS) collaborated to develop a cost-effective, scalable cloud infrastructure that enables researchers to perform their own analyses on a centrally secured and compliant cloud platform. AWS HealthOmics offers a suite of services that help bioinformaticians, researchers, and scientists to store, query, analyze, and generate insights from genomic and other biological data. Read this post to learn more about the three primary components of HealthOmics used in the solution.
Reducing transcription costs by 60% using AWS AI/ML services
The process of transcribing video or audio files has traditionally been manual and time-consuming. Beyond the need for accurate and cost-effective transcriptions, attorneys have determined a need for timestamping capabilities, speaker identification, search and replace capabilities, the highlighting of specific words, editing capabilities, and most importantly, shortened turnaround times.To address the need for quicker and more accurate transcription of audiovisual files, the Contra Costa County (CCC) District Attorney’s (DA) Office reached out to HAQM Web Services (AWS) and partnered with AWS Partner ScaleCapacity to develop a solution that would automate the manual transcription process.

Mitigating inadvertent IPv6 prefix advertisement with AWS automation
As federal agencies migrate to the Trusted Internet Connections (TIC) 3.0 framework, they will use HAQM Web Services (AWS) to exit to the internet, bypassing the TIC network. This transition requires agencies to plan and coordinate migration activities to verify seamless IPv6 connectivity. Agencies need to coordinate advertising their IPv6 prefixes with AWS, using mechanisms like Bring your own IP addresses (BYOIP). The migration process could involve changes in routing policies, firewall rules, and security controls to accommodate the IPv6 prefix changes. Read this post to learn more.
Using HAQM Timestream and HAQM Location Service to detect transportation route deviations and anomalies
Transit authorities have to maintain the location and schedule of large numbers of vehicle fleets on a daily basis. Most commonly, GPS coordinates are used to track vehicle location and transportation route. GPS coordinates often have anomalies that can contaminate location reporting. Additionally, if a vehicle takes a detour, it will offset public transportation schedules. Both cases impact the riders negatively. Keeping track and getting notified is a challenge. In this post, we look into an anomaly detection mechanism for public transportation using HAQM Web Services (AWS) offerings.
Using customer-provided ephemerides with AWS Ground Station
HAQM Web Services (AWS) Ground Station is a cloud-based service that provides you with an opportunity to perform communication sessions with your satellite without spending a fortune on your own ground station infrastructure. AWS Ground Station balances between providing a ready-made solution and tailoring the service to meet the unique needs of each customer. One of the ways to customize the service is to use customer-provided ephemerides (CPE) for antenna targeting.
Satellite mission operations using artificial intelligence on AWS
Cognitive Space is a leading HAQM Web Services (AWS) Partner delivering intelligent automation to satellite constellation operations using the CNTIENT platform. The system uses AWS-powered artificial intelligence (AI) decision making to handle highly complex and dynamic satellite tasking requirements, and demanding mission requirements. This blog post provides technical guidance for building and operating mission operation centers (MOCs) on AWS.
Building compliant healthcare solutions using Landing Zone Accelerator
In this post, we explore the complexities of data privacy and controls on HAQM Web Services (AWS), examine how creating a landing zone within which to contain such data is important, and highlight the differences between creating a landing zone from scratch compared with using the AWS Landing Zone Accelerator (LZA) for Healthcare. To aid explanation, we use a simple healthcare workload as an example. We also explain how LZA for Healthcare codifies HIPAA controls and AWS Security Best Practices to accelerate the creation of an environment to run protective health information workloads in AWS.
Germany’s International University of Applied Sciences automates creation of educational videos using generative AI, serverless on AWS
The International University of Applied Sciences (IU) maintains 90 percent of its course content online. Through its online programs, IU aims to give people worldwide access to highly individualized education, enabling them to further enrich their lives. The large majority of IU’s infrastructure runs on HAQM Web Services (AWS). Read this post to learn why IU worked directly with AWS experts through the Experience-Based Acceleration (EBA) program to expand their automated video generation pipelines to be more scalable, modular, and robust.
Cloud incident response at UNSW with digital forensics powered by AWS
In the digital age, universities face increasing cyber threats that put valuable data at risk. The University of New South Wales (UNSW) is taking proactive measures to address this growing concern. Read this blog post to learn how UNSW is collaborating with HAQM Web Services (AWS) to modernize its IT infrastructure and bolster cybersecurity defenses as part of its cloud transformation program.
