#495: [Right Now at AWS] Episode 13 - Low Code / No Code Solutions Dec 15, 2021

Show notes

Accelerating the pace of intelligent automation adoption and new product development without adding new devs is possible with Low Code / No Code solutions. With Low Code / No Code, you can gain development time in multiple ways. One example is reducing your business’s tactical dependence on IT and enabling business users to drive their own digital transformation with drag-and-drop interfaces that abstract the codebase. Meanwhile, a large-scale implementation includes using a software platform to assemble and deploy solutions with minimal or no need for additional code. In this episode, Katie speaks with Madhu Raman, AWS Worldwide Head of Intelligent Automation, to learn about current Low Code / No Code implementations and future possibilities.

#490: How Amazon Ads Run Machine Learning at Scale Dec 06, 2021

Show notes

Amazon Ads operates its ad serving infrastructure at massive scale, handling hundreds of millions of ad requests per second (trillions of ads per day) within a latency budget of 120 milliseconds. They use machine learning to predict relevant ads to show shoppers, predict whether shoppers will click or purchase, and allocate and price an ad. In this episode, Simon talks with Kun Liu, Director of Machine Learning at Amazon Ads, about how his team uses machine learning running on AWS to score thousands of ads per request within a 20ms window at over 100K transactions per second, all across hundreds of models that each required different hardware and software optimizations.
