How Cloudelligent Solved the AI Fintech Company’s Challenges
Cloudelligent implemented an AWS-native Generative AI architecture to help our customer deliver real-time, AI-powered financial intelligence at scale.
1
Real-Time Data Ingestion and AI-Powered Processing
To support fast-paced financial decisions, Cloudelligent built a real-time ingestion pipeline using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) and Amazon Kinesis. The AI Fintech Company processes over 10,000 TPS, pulling data from sources such as Polygon and EDGAR. Amazon Timestream stores this time-series data for instant querying. This data streams in real time using Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, processes with AWS Lambda, and is stored in Amazon Timestream for instant access and time-series analysis.
2
AI-Powered Natural Language Querying
Cloudelligent enabled the AI Fintech Company’s users to ask natural language questions via a web-based interface. These requests are routed through AWS Application Load Balancer to a backend running on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). Queries are then passed to AWS Lambda, which sends them to Amazon Bedrock. Using foundation models, Amazon Bedrock translates the natural language into optimized SQL queries. Depending on the data needed, the system queries either Amazon Timestream for real-time data or Amazon Athena for historical data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). The AI solution then generates clear, human-readable insights for end users.

Historical Data Enrichment and Contextual Insights
To enhance the system with historical insights, Cloudelligent used AWS Glue to pull financial filings from sources such as SEC-API/EDGAR. The data is cleaned, enriched, and transformed through batch processing. Final datasets are stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), while metadata is organized using the AWS Glue Data Catalog for improved discoverability and data management.
4
Security, Compliance, and Observability
Security and observability are central to the solution. AWS IAM enforces role-based access, while AWS Secrets Manager secures and rotates credentials. Amazon CloudWatch tracks latency, ingestion, and model performance, ensuring 99.99% uptime. The architecture is built to support compliance with SEC Rule 17a-4 and MiFID II, giving our customer full visibility and control as it scales from its current 10,000 TPS to support up to 1 million TPS.
