In this episode of Infrastructure Matters – Insider Edition, Steven Dickens is joined by AWS's Ajay Nair, General Manager, AWS Lambda, for a conversation focusing on the topic of serverless computing and its place within AWS's broader portfolio. Ajay explains that serverless has evolved from its initial definition as a way to run code without managing servers to a broader operational model focused on delivering value to customers without getting bogged down in managing infrastructure. He emphasizes that serverless allows customers to delegate outcomes like security, scale, performance, and availability to AWS experts, enabling them to focus on their unique business needs. Their discussion covers: Definition of Serverless: Serverless is an operational model that enables businesses to run or build applications without the need to manage low-level infrastructure. It allows customers to delegate infrastructure responsibilities to AWS, freeing them to concentrate on delivering value to their customers. AWS's Evolving Role: AWS has evolved to meet the diverse needs of its customers. Some customers require differentiated infrastructure and hardware, while others seek a more hands-off approach. AWS provides a spectrum of choices, from fully managed serverless services like Lambda to more hands-on options like EC2 instances, allowing customers to select what works best for their workloads. Benefits of Serverless: Customers adopting serverless benefit from lower total cost of ownership, elasticity, reliability, and speed. Serverless enables them to focus on innovation and faster delivery of applications, as AWS takes care of infrastructure management, performance optimization, and security. Serverless Across AWS's Portfolio: AWS is extending the serverless operational model across its entire portfolio, not just infrastructure. This includes databases (e.g., Redshift Serverless and DynamoDB), IoT services, machine learning platforms (e.g., SageMaker), and industry-specific solutions (e.g., healthcare). AWS aims to provide a range of serverless options to meet the needs of different application classes. Ajay Nair encourages customers to think "serverless first" for new development projects, emphasizing that serverless computing brings agility and cost efficiency to AWS users, allowing them to innovate faster and do less manual infrastructure management.

Beam has raised over $160 million in funding and is available in 44 states across the U.S. Learn more at beambenefits.com Highlights from the Show Fro was on the show around the company he co-founded and is CEO of, Beam Benefits, was in The Future of Insurance, Volume II. The Startups Beam started as a dental insurer, but 18 months ago spread to other benefits products in response to customer needs and their focus on those needs Beam looks at established ancillary benefits and emerging ancillary benefits Established are things like dental, group health, short and long term disability - products Beam has grown to include in its portfolio Emerging ancillary benefits are driven by generational changes – things like pet insurance, mental and tele-health - and some purely new products like cancer coverage, and some non-insurance products in the wellness arena This growth of products is about employers looking to create value for their employees rather than just coverage, which is different from P&C Beam is a very customer-driven business, looking at what customers want or need, and let that define the kind of products they design (or don't) This helped as they setup their initial IoT-based, connected tooth brush and dental insurance to their move to non-IoT-based products A lot has changed since Fro was on last time in the industry and with InsurTech investing For Beam, they set a 2 year window to become Beam Benefits, and they're at or ahead of schedule in that transformation Benefits is more primed for new product introduction, with one key factor being brokers Beam came out very counter to Zenefits in that they were pro-broker, and listened to brokers' desire to not have everything change all at once, but do it more methodically He's seen an interest in changing so many things amongst some startups so quickly that the product becomes unrecognizable to the market and therefore struggles to take hold Fro sees a transition from phase 1 to phase 2 companies, which means some will go out of business, but there's also been an aggregate increase in employment in the space A lot of founders have had to be heads down building or on the defensive for the prevailing tone of negativity from the focus on the failed startups or poor performers, and there would be benefit to the space to give some attention to celebrate what has worked well or been done to great benefit Fro is optimistic about what customers will experience because of the presence of insurtech in the space Fro see insurance existing on two axes - the risk transfer side and the customer experience side, and where the most innovation will be He believes, if AI delivers on its promise, the impact on the risk axis will be profound This would lower the capital required to start new coverage solutions, allowing more startups to try to innovate in the space He also sees the benefits world more directly impacted by the experience axis to catch insurance up to where other consumer industries are This episode is brought to you by The Future of Insurance Volume III.

On this episode of Conversations on the Creek, Rob Savitsky chats with Sarat Varanasi, P&C Practice Leader at Cognizant about the concept of “digital twins” and how insurers are leveraging them across the insurance lifecycle. Digital twins are virtual representations of physical objects or processes. They are fed by real-time data leveraging technologies such as IoT sensors, telematics devices, and AI/ML solutions. Rob kicks off the show by asking Sarat for his own definition of digital twins. Sarat notes that while the term is overused and applied differently by different folks in the industry, one key point to keep in mind is that the concept of digital twins can be applied to multiple risks. For example, one of Sarat's carrier clients has taken the concept of digital twins to create digital replicas of the 300,000 commercial properties that they insure. These properties are pulling in data sources such as aerial imagery about the building, flood zone, and neighborhood, as well as data from Yelp reviews and Google Maps. It's these sort of data feeds that keep the carriers updated on the status of each risk, and enable them to make better decisions around which subset of properties to conduct physical visits during renewals. Throughout the conversation, we discuss other use cases for digital twins including distribution, as well as claims assignment during CAT events.
