Welcome to Compliance Insights—a passion project born out of my desire to dive deep into AWS technology while exploring the world of regulatory compliance in the financial services industry. This site isn’t a polished, professional platform; it’s a space where I’ve put together my thoughts, experiments, and learnings on compliance capture, archiving, and surveillance obligations under various laws. It’s all about making compliance a bit more interesting (and hopefully fun) to explore.
In building this website, I’ve thrown myself into the AWS ecosystem, getting hands-on with services like S3, CloudFront, Route 53, Lambda, DynamoDB, IAM, KMS, Amazon SES, and Certificate Manager. It’s been a rewarding journey that’s allowed me to play with real tech while creating something tangible. Compliance Insights is the result of countless hours of tinkering, learning, and a fair bit of trial and error.
Hi, I’m James Gosling, a Senior Solutions Engineer at Smarsh, working in the presales team. I’m passionate about regulatory compliance and technology, and this website reflects my drive to learn by doing. My day job involves helping companies navigate compliance challenges, and here, I’ve taken that passion and mixed it with my AWS learning journey.
So, have a look around! This site is as much a playground for my AWS experiments as it is a way to share some cool insights on compliance. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you find something that sparks your interest!
