A Siemens it’s at Amazon Web Services (AWS) are strengthening their partnership and helping industries and companies of all sizes build and scale generative artificial intelligence applications. Experts from engineering, manufacturing, logistics, insurance and banking will be able to create applications and enhance existing ones with the most advanced generative AI technology. To enable this, Siemens is integrating Amazon Bedrock, a service that offers a selection of high-performance foundation models from leading AI companies through a single API, along with security, privacy, and responsible AI features, into Mendix , the main platform for low-code which is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio.
“By integrating Amazon Bedrock into our low-code platform, we are democratizing generative AI technology and enabling everyone to build the apps customers need to become more competitive, resilient, and sustainable. Creating smarter applications without programming knowledge accelerates innovation and helps companies address skilled labor shortages,” said Roland Busch, CEO of Siemens.
With this combination, you can choose the generative AI model that best fits your specific use case and quickly and securely incorporate that model into your applications. This will make development simpler, faster and more efficient. Previously, when developers wanted to integrate generative AI models, they needed to obtain access credentials and write specialized function code.
With the new Mendix-Amazon Bedrock integration, this can now be done with just a few clicks. Teams can create smart, robust industry applications without dedicated programming knowledge. Users can interact with information easily through a graphical interface and the simplicity of drag-and-drop commands.
Together, AWS and Siemens are enabling companies around the world to create new capabilities, solutions, and value with generative AI. This partnership builds on our ten-year relationship with Siemens, offering customers across industries the flexible, customizable, and secure environment they need to seize new opportunities with generative AI,” said Adam Selipsky, CEO of AWS.
This innovation allows Mendix customers to apply generative artificial intelligence to drive productivity in their workforce. For example, a factory worker can find machine documentation more quickly, generating relevant views without the need to manually search a database, manuals, and records.
A production engineer could also use generative AI to suggest machine adjustments to improve yield and get suggestions on equipment adjustments, maintenance, or even spare parts to maximize a factory’s productivity. Customers do not need to build their own AI infrastructure and will be able to harness the power of their company’s data with the highest security and privacy while maintaining full control of their data. Generative AI technology can power applications through features such as summarizing and analyze extensive technical or legal documents, translate content into different languages, or recognize images.
Financial companies can integrate automatic fraud detection into their software, while workers at an automobile factory can improve quality based on AI analysis of millions of data points on the production line. With access to a variety of foundation models on Amazon Bedrock, users can easily select the best model for their specific task and integrate it with just a few clicks.
The collaboration extends the long-standing partnership between AWS and Siemens to facilitate efficient use of IT and the cloud, making it easily integrated into applications and machine workflows, and providing a fluid experience.
Currently, more than 50 million end users around the world work with more than 200,000 applications built on the Mendix low-code platform, available as part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio. Substantial growth in low-code platforms is expected in the coming years. This technology allows developers to create applications via drag and drop, with reusable components and software building blocks, meaning they can develop more software, faster, and with smaller teams.
Amazon Bedrock is a fully managed service that provides easy access to a choice of industry-leading language models and other foundation models from AI21 Labs, Amazon, Anthropic, Cohere, Meta, and Stability AI, along with a broad set of capabilities that customers need to build generative AI applications, simplifying development while supporting privacy and security.
Users can also apply Guardrails to filter out unwanted content, adhere to responsible AI policies, or tune their models using Knowledge Bases for Amazon Bedrock to provide contextual insights from private data sources and more relevant, accurate, and personalized responses. .
The Mendix-Amazon Bedrock integration complements other AWS generative AI services such as Amazon CodeWhisperer, a machine learning (ML) powered service that helps improve developer productivity by generating code recommendations based on developer feedback in natural language and in your code. Together, the services extend the benefits of generative AI to developers and business users, regardless of their programming skills.
