How-To How to actually use this

What changed: AWS published a guide for managing Amazon Textract Custom Queries adapters across accounts using infrastructure-as-code and a promotion pipeline.

How to use it:

  1. Define adapter resources in CloudFormation or Terraform templates for version-controlled deployments.
  2. Build a cross-account CI/CD pipeline that promotes trained adapters from development to staging to production accounts.
  3. Implement a pre-classification router (e.g., a Lambda function) to detect form version and invoke the correct adapter endpoint.
  4. Restrict network access by configuring VPC endpoints for Textract and adapter endpoints in each account.
  5. Apply encryption (KMS) and least-privilege IAM policies to adapter training jobs, inference endpoints, and S3 buckets.

Good for: ML engineers operationalizing Textract custom adapters.

Learn how to operationalize Amazon Textract Custom Queries adapters for production: infrastructure as code with AWS CloudFormation and Terraform, a cross-account adapter promotion process, a pre-classification routing pattern for multiple form versions, and production security controls such as VPC endpoints, encryption, and least-privilege IAM.
