What you'll learn

Organizations are increasingly adopting generative AI to automate tasks, analyze complex content, and deliver intelligent user experiences. While foundation models offer a fast way to get started, achieving real-world impact often requires adapting model behavior, improving performance, and applying advanced capabilities across different media types. In this course, Amazon Nova: Advanced Applications and Features, you’ll learn to apply, customize, and optimize Nova models to meet specific application needs. First, you’ll explore how to use foundation models for practical tasks like document analysis, content generation, and code completion, using Amazon Bedrock’s Playground for quick experimentation. Next, you’ll discover how to work with multimodal inputs by processing and interpreting text, images, and video through Nova Canvas and Nova Reel. Finally, you’ll learn how to fine-tune and distill Nova models to improve task performance, reduce latency, and optimize cost, alongside techniques for evaluating and comparing model outputs using competitive benchmarks. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of advanced Nova model capabilities in Amazon Bedrock needed to apply, customize, and optimize them for efficient, domain-specific AI solutions.
