IAM Identity Center, formerly AWS SSO, is often used as an access management solution in front of one or more AWS accounts. More often than not, its purpose is to grant access to AWS accounts within an AWS organization. Today we’ll shed some light on the basic concepts and explain how this solution can be integrated with Azure AD which has recently been renamed to Entra ID to provide Single-Sign-On to your AWS environment.

Finding the right set of hyperparameters when training machine learning models is a resource-consuming and costly task. In this post, we try to simplify this by exploring hyperparameter tuning for reinforcement learning models with Ray 2.x on AWS Sagemaker.

The RAG - Retrieval Augmented Generation is an approach to reduce hallucination using LLMs (Large Language Models). With RAG you need a storage solution, which is a vector-store in most cases. When you have the task to build the infrastructure for such a use case, you have to decide which database to use. Sometimes, the best solution is not the biggest one. Then you should go serverless to a smaller solution, which fits the use-case better. In this post, I introduce some of the solutions and aid you in deciding which one to choose.

That means I can continue to enjoy the top-notch developer experience of Laravel while also getting all the benefits of serverless technologies (plus, I can maintain a healthy relationship with my colleagues 🎉). But let’s start at the beginning.

Oh, there is an error in my Lambda function. But - what is the event JSON input which caused the error? Oh, I forgot to log the event in my Lambda code. Damned! It would be great to swap the code with a “just dump the event code” and slip it like a cuckoo egg. Afterwards, get the event and restore the old Lambda!

Setting up enterprise applications can take a lot of work. Especially with software that has been on the market for a long time, a complete reinstallation and configuration can take quite a bit longer. Talking about complex installations, however, there is one final boss with three letters in its name: SAP.
