Web Interface

The solution also deploys an Amazon Cognito user pool, an Amazon CloudFront distribution, a web Amazon S3 bucket, and a simple web interface. The web interface makes it easy to upload, browse, search video and image files, extract metadata, and create and manage your labeling workforce. The web interface leverages Amazon Cognito for user authentication and is powered by web assets hosted in the web Amazon S3 bucket. Amazon CloudFront is used to provide public access to the solution’s website bucket contents.

An Amazon API Gateway RESTful API is used for searching results stored in the Amazon ES cluster, and AWS IoT Core is used as a publish/subscribe message broker to periodically update workflow progress to connected web clients.
