AWS RAG & GenAI Innovation Workshop 2025

Posted on August 26, 2025

By Liza Katz

As part of my work with BigData Boutique, I’ll be teaming up with the AWS team to deliver the AWS RAG & GenAI Innovation Workshop 2025.

It’s a focused, practical session where we help a customer build a working Retrieval-Augmented Generation demo on their own data—not sample docs. The goal: leave with something tangible you can iterate on internally.

What we actually do

  • Understand the user problem and pick a target use case
  • Collect and lightly structure a slice of your real content
  • Chunk + preprocess (keep it simple, explain trade-offs)
  • Generate embeddings and load a vector store
  • Wire retrieval + LLM prompt flow
  • Add basic guardrails & relevance sanity checks
  • Quick evaluation loop (spot checks + simple metrics)
  • Leave you with next-step pointers (hardening, scaling, monitoring)

Who it’s for

Teams who want to move from slides / pilots to something concrete, fast.
