- 16. Day 1 Announcements Amazon QuickSight Fast, easy-to-use, cloud-powered business intelligence Amazon QuickSight is a fast, cloud- powered business intelligence (BI) service that makes it easy to build visualizations, perform ad-hoc analysis, and quickly get business insights from data. QuickSight integrates with AWS data stores, flat files, and third-party sources, and is super-fast and responsive while seamlessly scaling to hundreds of thousands of users and petabytes of data. Amazon Kinesis Firehose Easily load streaming data into S3 & Redshift Amazon Kinesis Firehose is the easiest way to load streaming data into AWS. It can capture and automatically load streaming data into Amazon S3 and Amazon Redshift, enabling near real- time analytics with existing business intelligence tools you’re already using today. It is a fully managed service that requires no ongoing administration. AWS Import/Export Snowball AWS Import/Export Snowball uses secure appliances to help accelerate petabyte-scale data transfers into and out of AWS, addressing common challenges with large-scale data transfers including network costs, long transfer times, and security concerns. Transferring data with Snowball is simple, fast, secure, and as little as one-fifth the cost of high-speed Internet.
- 17. Day 1 (continued #1) AWS Inspector Analyze application security Amazon Inspector is an automated security assessment service that helps minimize the likelihood of introducing security or compliance issues when deploying applications on AWS. Amazon Inspector automatically assesses applications for vulnerabilities or deviations from best practices. After performing an assessment, Amazon Inspector produces a detailed report with prioritized steps for remediation. Amazon RDS for MariaDB Fully-managed MariaDB deployment on AWS MariaDB is now available as a fully- managed service on AWS with up to 6TB of storage, 30,000 IOPS, and support for high-availability deployments through the Amazon Relational Database Service. You can start running production workloads from day one with high availability using multiple availability zones. AWS Database Migration Service Minimal downtime migration It supports all widely used database platforms, and performs schema and code conversion for migrations between database engines. AWS Database Migration Service is low cost and simple to use and can typically migrate a terabyte-size database for as little as three dollars.
- 18. Day 1 (continued #2) AWS WAF Filter malicious web traffic AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps to protect web applications from attack by blocking common web exploits like SQL injection and cross- site scripting. AWS WAF integrates seamlessly with Amazon CloudFront, our global content delivery network, and includes an API that you can use to automate the creation, deployment, and maintenance of web security rules. AWS Config Rules Cloud governance & compliance AWS Config Rules is a new set of cloud governance capabilities that allow IT administrators to define guidelines for provisioning and configuring AWS resources and then continuously monitor compliance with those guidelines. AWS Config Rules ensures EBS volumes are encrypted, EC2 instances are properly tagged, and Elastic IP addresses (EIPs) are attached to instances. Amazon Elasticsearch Service Easily run Elasticsearch in AWS Amazon Elasticsearch Service is a managed service that makes it easy to deploy, operate, and scale Elasticsearch in the AWS Cloud. Elasticsearch is a popular open-source search and analytics engine for use cases such as log analytics, real-time application monitoring, and clickstream analytics. You can get started with Amazon Elasticsearch Service as part of the AWS Free Tier.
- 19. Day 2 Announcements Announcing AWS IoT AWS IoT is a managed cloud platform that lets connected devices easily and securely interact with cloud applications and other devices. AWS IoT can support billions of devices and trillions of messages, and can process and route those messages to AWS endpoints, such as AWS Lambda and Amazon Kinesis, and to other devices reliably and securely. AWS Mobile Hub AWS Mobile Hub is the fastest way to build mobile apps powered by AWS. It lets you easily add and configure features for your apps, including user authentication, data storage, backend logic, push notifications, content delivery, and analytics — all from a single, integrated console, and without worrying about provisioning, scaling, and managing the infrastructure. Amazon CloudWatch Dashboards With CloudWatch Dashboards, you can monitor operational metrics with custom graphs of your AWS resources from a single pane of glass. You can create text-based or graphical widgets, add custom text annotations and links to graphs, change the time range, resize and reorganize widgets, and reuse and share dashboards.
- 20. Day 2 (continued #1) AWS Lambda You can now develop your AWS Lambda function code using Python, maintain multiple versions of your function code, invoke your code on a regular schedule, and run your functions for up to five minutes. Amazon WorkSpaces Amazon WorkSpaces allows you to provision cloud-based desktops providing users access to the documents, applications, and resources they need from any supported Windows Apple or Android device. Amazon WorkSpaces now supports encryption and lets you bring your existing Windows 7 Desktop Licenses by providing physically dedicated hardware. Amazon EC2 Spot Instances You can now request Amazon EC2 Spot instances to run continuously, for up to six hours, at a flat rate that saves you up to 50% compared to On-Demand prices. This enables you to reduce costs when running finite duration tasks such as batch processing, encoding and rendering, modeling and analysis, and continuous integration jobs.
- 21. Day 2 (continued #2) Amazon EC2 Container Registry A fully-managed Docker container registry that makes it easy for developers to store, manage, and deploy Docker images. Amazon ECR is integrated with Amazon EC2 Container Service (ECS), simplifying your development to production workflow. Integration with AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) provides resource-level control of each repository. Amazon EC2 Container Service You can now use the Amazon ECS CLI with Docker Compose to easily launch multi- container applications. We have also added availability zone awareness to the Amazon ECS service scheduler, allowing the scheduler to spread your tasks across availability zones.

- AWS has worked with Insurance companies and other Financial Services organizations to enable innovation by #Accelerating Transformation of infrastructure in the cloud. #Overcoming Hardware Constraints in order to bring down costs and increase agility. #Empowering Enterprise Data Excellence by running applications and migrating data centers. #Deploying High Performance Computing Capabilities and enabling big data analytics and processing. #And Modernizing Infrastructure and Automating Processes to meet market and organizational needs. (ed porter) In the next slides, I will be going over these specific use cases, what challenges these insurers overcame, and the benefits they are realizing by working with AWS.
- With an expanded vision powered by AWS, Suncorp set itself a three-month challenge to move the company’s websites, mobile apps, business intelligence, and data streaming capabilities to AWS. The company held an innovation day during which 450 employees across ten locations spent 24 hours on strategies to employ AWS tools that would better customer service. By choosing AWS to support agile principles and practices, Suncorp was able to launch a working virtual private cloud and virtual data center in under three months and then undertook a strategy to migrate other business critical applications to the AWS platform. The transformation enabled better customer service delivery. For Jeff Smith, this accelerated transformation allowed the organization to reset their own aspirations for what’s next.
- Aon found that by using AWS’s pay-as-you-go pricing, it could spin up large numbers of high-performance GPUs quickly and inexpensively, so it decided to move its infrastructure to AWS. Aon is now able to perform actuarial calculations with greater computing power, in shorter time frames, and for less cost than on-prem. Aon built a front end on AWS for its processing solution, using Pathwise Modeling Studio, to compile a program using its algorithms and automatically running GPU instances on Amazon EC2 in an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud for security. Aon also uses Amazon EBS for persistent storage. By processing on AWS, recalculating policies takes minutes rather than hours or days. And the resulting cost savings have been passed to Aon’s customers. According to Peter Phillips, Managing Director at Aon, “Using AWS helps us reduce a 10-day process to 10 minutes. That’s transformative: it broadens our ability to discover.”
