How U.S. Hunger connects leaders and data using Amazon Quick
Amazon Web Services Rick Whitted
U.S. Hunger used Amazon Quick (including Quick Spaces) to let its executives, staff, and program leaders explore shared organizational data without repeatedly routing requests through its technology team. The organization refreshes SQL Server data into Quick’s in-memory engine, SPICE, on a schedule of 2 AM ET each night. This shifts daily operations toward shared definitions and live KPI, financial, and research workflows across teams, including CEO use of chat and Space-based collaboration for reporting and planning.
Why it matters
U.S. Hunger, a nonprofit addressing food insecurity, uses Amazon Quick to connect organizational data with leadership decisions. Leaders explore applicant data directly, share KPI definitions and financial context in Quick Spaces, and investigate policy questions with Quick Research.
