About the Event
Join us for a fast-paced, one-day in-person hackathon where you'll build real-world GenAI solutions for the automotive and manufacturing industries.
This hackathon is a joint initiative by Amazon Web Services, Redis, and Storm Reply — bringing together the power of AWS's AI/ML platform, Redis's real-time data capabilities, and Storm Reply's deep automotive cloud expertise. Together, we're creating a unique environment where automotive and manufacturing professionals can explore how Generative AI and Agentic AI can transform their industry — from the factory floor to the finished vehicle.
Why This Collaboration Matters
- AWS provides the AI foundation: Amazon Bedrock for foundation model access, AgentCore for production-ready AI agents, and the cloud infrastructure to scale from prototype to production
- Redis delivers the real-time data layer: sub-millisecond vector search, streaming data ingestion, and the speed that automotive and manufacturing workloads demand
- Storm Reply brings industry expertise: as an AWS Premier Consulting Partner specializing in automotive cloud solutions, they bridge the gap between cutting-edge tech and real-world industry requirements
What You'll Build
Teams of 3–5 engineers, architects, and data scientists will prototype AI-powered solutions that solve real problems across the automotive and manufacturing value chain:
Factory Floor & Manufacturing
- Real-time anomaly detection on production lines
- LLM-powered operator assistants for troubleshooting
- Quality & defect classification pipelines
- Predictive maintenance and bottleneck analysis
Logistics & Operations
- Fleet routing optimization
- Supply chain anomaly prediction
- Natural-language queries over live operational data
Inside the Vehicle
- AI-powered in-car assistants
- Context-aware infotainment personalisation
- Driver profile-based recommendations
