Automate custom PII detection at scale with Amazon Macie and Step Functions
Organizations in regulated industries like financial services, insurance, healthcare, and government ingest large volumes of data containing personally identifiable information (PII). Your applications, claims processing systems, partner data feeds, and internal workflows produce files that may include names, addresses, Social Security numbers, and domain-specific identifiers such as policy numbers, member IDs, and medical record numbers. […]
Eclipse Dataspace Components on AWS: Cost optimization strategies
When you deploy Eclipse Dataspace Components (EDC) connectors on AWS, one of the first challenges you face is predicting and controlling the cost of the required infrastructure. Without clear benchmarks, it is difficult to make informed decisions about workload sizing, environment configuration, and long-term investment. Part 1 of this 3-part blog series covered the fundamentals […]
Eclipse Dataspace Components on AWS: Architecture patterns in production
Running Eclipse Dataspace Components (EDC) connectors in production on AWS requires deliberate architecture decisions around isolation, managed services, and security layering. In Part 1 of this series, we covered the fundamentals of data space architectures and EDC per the International Data Space Association’s (IDSA) standards. If you are new to EDC, we recommend starting there. […]
Eclipse Dataspace Components on AWS: Data sharing fundamentals
This three-part blog series guides you through implementing Eclipse Dataspace Components (EDC) on AWS, from foundational concept to production deployment. Part 1 establishes the theoretical foundation with IDSA standards, the Dataspace Protocol (DSP), and core EDC architecture. Part 2 provides production-ready AWS deployment patterns using services like Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), Amazon Aurora, […]
Specification-driven composition for flexible data workflows
Specification-driven composition addresses a common scalability bottleneck in data pipelines. Data pipelines often start as simple scripts, but as they grow, you duplicate transformation logic and small changes cascade across multiple workflows. Copying and modifying data transformation logic across scripts leads to workflows that become difficult to manage at scale. Tracking what each pipeline does […]
