How CORTO scaled Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL with pgvector to 7.6 billion vectors and 2.5 billion documents in production, delivering sub-second legal search for 10,000+ law firms at 75% lower storage cost.
Learn how Natera built an automated voice agent on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore that lets patients book mobile phlebotomy appointments through natural conversation. The post covers the dual-WebSocket bridge, event-driven latency masking, and progressive-trust authentication behind 100% tool-calling accuracy and sub-7-second latency.
The SageMaker Python SDK v3 redesigns script mode with unified ModelTrainer and ModelBuilder classes. This post walks through two end-to-end examples, a scikit-learn Random Forest and a multi-GPU Stable Diffusion 3.5 LoRA fine-tune, showing how SourceCode syncs your local code into any container at runtime so you can iterate without rebuilding Docker images.
The advanced side of supervised fine-tuning data prep. This second post in a two-part series covers evaluating data readiness with learning curves, selecting high-value data subsets, augmenting data with synthetic and distilled examples, and mixing data sources to prevent catastrophic forgetting.
Data preparation determines the ceiling of any supervised fine-tuning project. This first post in a two-part series covers the foundations of SFT data prep: quality checks, conversational (JSONL) formatting, reasoning and tool-calling schemas, and a representative train/evaluation split.
Implementing break-glass access for Amazon EKS clusters removes the circular dependency where a federated identity provider outage locks you out of the clusters you need to reach to fix it. This post supplies a cross-account IAM role with enforced MFA, infrastructure-as-code templates, validation tests, and a post-incident recovery procedure.
