What did AWS announce?

Amazon Web Services, Inc., an Amazon.com, Inc. company, announced on Wednesday, AWS App Studio, a generative artificial intelligence (AI)-powered service that uses natural language to create enterprise-grade applications, at AWS Summit New York.

 The company explained that App Studio can build an application that could have taken a professional developer days to build from scratch in minutes. 

Dilip Kumar, Vice President of Applications at AWS, said that using natural language, any user can describe the application they want to build, and App Studio will help them do that.

“AWS App Studio opens up application development to an entirely new set of builders, helping them create enterprise-grade applications in minutes. Designed to meet the needs of the largest enterprise customers and fastest growing startups, App Studio is a force multiplier for technical employees at any company. Now, using natural language, any user with some technical experience can simply describe the application they want to build, and App Studio takes care of the development process, delivering an application that employees can start using immediately. It has never been easier for technical professionals to build custom applications tailored to the unique needs of their business, ushering in a new world of productivity for businesses of all sizes,” Kumar said.

Scott Puntenney, national revenue manager at Campus Life & Style, explained in a comment that “Campus Life & Style helps over 28,000 students across 50 locations find their room (and community) to call home for the school year. With App Studio, a team of two were able to build a complete application that streamlines data intake, management, and reporting for our 150-person team. Our market survey process gives us the data to determine the next locations to provide student housing, but this process is excruciatingly manual with more than 150 people involved in data collection, entry, and validation across multiple spreadsheets, forms, and dashboards. We expect that this data processing application will increase the efficiency of our market survey collection and distribution process by 20% and cut down on 98% of the human errors associated with manual data entry. We now plan to roll out App Studio to modernize our financial and HR data pipelines and use other AWS generative AI services to further improve how we manage our processes at scale.”

Amazon said that App Studio is available in preview today in US West (Oregon), and that the App Studio’s generative AI-powered assistant eliminates the learning curve of typical low-code tools, accelerating the application creation process and simplifying common tasks like designing the user interface (UI), building workflows, and testing the application.
