# Amazon Connect Development Environment

We're thrilled to share a bit of a milestone on our journey to bring new platform integrations to our [contact centre wallboard solution](/content/discover/index.html), Discover.

Just over a week ago we spun up our first Amazon Connect development environment to create a new real time data feed for Discover. I'm proud to say we've made huge progress in such a short time to develop a fully working prototype hitting all of our objectives:

- A high quality dataset (we can see agents, queues, routing profiles, tasks, and scheduled callbacks all in real time)
- A super stable feed (our application has been receiving data from Amazon Connect for days without interruption)
- Lightning-fast refresh rates (we're reliably receiving new data every 2 seconds)

As we continue testing with more complex routing scenarios (read: try our best to break stuff), the next step is to combine real time with historical data to create a unified and complete view, then fully integrate this new dataset with Discover.

I personally can't wait to see this running for real on one of our [wallboards](/content/discover/index.html).

Any Amazon Connect people out there wish they had better wallboards? [Get in touch](/content/contact/index.html) for more information, get the word out and watch this space.
