Qualco - Resilient AWS Setup for Banking Workloads |
How Omilia accelerates Generative AI Prototyping using AWS |
In this session, we’ll dive into how QUALCO, a global leader in financial software, enhanced its financial security framework through an advanced, cloud-based solution. With a focus on mutual TLS (mTLS) implementation, this case study showcases how Blazeclan supported QUALCO in bolstering data security and ensuring compliance across multiple regions. Attendees will gain insights into the challenges, technical strategies, and key outcomes that demonstrate how a secure, scalable cloud architecture can elevate financial data protection and drive business resilience. |
In this session we will present Amazon Bedrock that offers an efficient solution for quickly iterating on generative AI models during early-stage development. Instead of spinning up dedicated server infrastructure, Bedrock enables rapid experimentation with different pre-trained models, both tuned and untuned, with minimal configuration changes. This flexibility is especially valuable for gathering initial results and evaluating various model sizes, significantly accelerating proof-of-concept work. Additionally, in controlled production releases with limited traffic, Bedrock's pay-per-use model provides cost efficiency while offering built-in guardrails that ensure security and compliance. This approach allows teams to optimize resources without compromising quality during early phases, before scaling becomes a priority. |
