Challenges & Solutions
Challenges
- ESG data from thousands of sources needs harmonisation
- Carbon accounting requires data accuracy for regulatory submissions
- Renewable energy monitoring from thousands of IoT sensors
- Climate model processing requires massive HPC compute bursts
- Carbon credit marketplace needs blockchain-grade transaction integrity
CloudFormation Solves
- Glue data quality checks for ESG data validation and harmonisation
- Redshift immutable audit trail for carbon accounting submissions
- Kinesis → Timestream for renewable energy telemetry processing
- Spot HPC fleet for climate model batch processing cost efficiency
- DynamoDB + QLDB for immutable carbon credit transaction ledger
Architecture Patterns
ESG Data Platform
S3 Data Lake + Glue crawlers for multi-source ESG data ingestion. Lake Formation governance. Redshift for TCFD/GRI reporting. QuickSight for executive sustainability dashboards.
Renewable Energy Monitoring
IoT Core for solar/wind sensor telemetry → Timestream time-series → Lambda anomaly detection → CloudWatch alarms → SNS alerts for grid operators.
Climate Model Processing
AWS Batch on Spot Fleet for WRF/CESM climate model runs. FSx for Lustre scratch storage. S3 for model output archiving. SageMaker for climate prediction ML models.
Carbon Credit Marketplace
API Gateway + Lambda marketplace engine. QLDB for immutable carbon credit transfer ledger. Aurora for credit registry. Cognito for registry participant authentication.
