Amazon Quick Desktop now allows teams to generate governed, AI-assisted reports from files stored on Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP, cutting weekly report preparation from hours to minutes. Previously, teams spent hours manually creating reports, re-reading documents, reformatting metrics, and copying summaries into Slack. Leaders needed these updates quickly but also required trust in the sources behind each metric, risk, and recommendation. This solution enables a governed weekly reporting workflow by integrating Amazon Quick Desktop, Amazon Quick skills, Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP, Amazon S3 access points, and Slack.
The solution uses Amazon Quick Desktop as the main workspace for weekly reporting. Users open Quick Desktop, activate the Weekly Business Reporting Assistant skill, and ask questions like 'What changed since last week’s operating review?' or 'Create a one-page weekly report for leadership.' The skill provides task-specific instructions covering source collection, output formatting, citation behavior, and when to seek clarification. This allows users to start from a guided reporting process instead of a blank conversation. Source files remain in FSx for NetApp ONTAP, and the solution uses an S3 access point to grant Amazon Quick controlled read access to the selected folder.
The source files remain in FSx for NetApp ONTAP, and the S3 access point gives Amazon Quick controlled access to the selected reporting folder. Amazon Quick prepares that content as the Business Reporting Archive knowledge base. Users work in Quick Desktop with the Weekly Business Reporting Assistant skill to create cited reporting artifacts and Slack summaries for approval. The Business Reporting Archive remains the governed source for report facts and citations.
