Enable zero-copy access to AWS services on Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP with Amazon S3 Access Points

This article describes an architecture that enables semiconductor verification teams to analyze EDA logs using AI services without copying data from FSx for NetApp ONTAP.

• S3 Access Points make NFS-stored logs accessible via S3 API for zero-copy access
• Amazon Bedrock AgentCore provides agentic tools to read and correlate logs across multiple files
• Amazon Quick enables natural language queries for root cause analysis of simulation failures
• RAG path uses knowledge base indexing for quick summary questions; agentic path provides deep multi-file investigation
• Reduces manual triage time from 45-60 minutes to minutes with automated failure correlation
• Supports dashboards via QuickSight and scheduled automations for daily triage reports
• Architecture applies to other EDA workflows including synthesis, physical verification, and power analysis

The solution accelerates verification closure by making log data accessible to AI services while maintaining existing NFS workflows and security controls.
