At AWS re:Invent 2020, we introduced the preview of Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus, an open source Prometheus-compatible monitoring service that makes it easy to monitor containerized applications at scale. With Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus, you can use the Prometheus query language (PromQL) to monitor the performance of containerized workloads without having to manage the underlying infrastructure required to scale and secure the ingestion, storage, alert, and querying of operational metrics. Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus automatically scales as your monitoring needs grow. It is a highly available service deployed across multiple Availability Zones (AZs) that integrates AWS security and compliance capabilities. The service offers native support for PromQL as well as the ability to ingest Prometheus metrics from…

Introducing Amazon Redshift Query Editor V2, a Free Web-based Query Authoring Tool for Data Analysts
When it comes to manipulating and analyzing relational data, Structured Query Language (SQL) has been an international standard since 1986, a couple of years before I was born. And yet, it sometimes takes hours to get access to a new database or data warehouse, configure credentials or single sign-on, download and install multiple desktop libraries or drivers, and get familiar with the new schema—all this before you even run a query. Not to mention the challenge of sharing queries, results, and analyses securely between members of the same team or across teams. Today, I’m glad to announce the general availability of Amazon Redshift Query Editor V2, a web-based tool that you can use to explore, analyze, and share data using…
New – Amazon Genomics CLI Is Now Open Source and Generally Available
Less than 70 years separate us from one of the greatest discoveries of all time: the double helix structure of DNA. We now know that DNA is a sort of a twisted ladder composed of four types of compounds, called bases. These four bases are usually identified by an uppercase letter: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). One of the reasons for the double helix structure is that when these compounds are at the two sides of the ladder, A always bonds with T, and C always bonds with G. If we unroll the ladder on a table, we’d see two sequences of “letters”, and each of the two sides would carry the same genetic information. For…
New for Amazon Connect: Voice ID, Wisdom, and Outbound Communications
During the AWS re:Invent conference last year, I wrote about new capabilities added to Amazon Connect. Today, I am happy to announce the general availability of two of these capabilities, Voice ID and Wisdom, and the launch of a new one. High-volume outbound communications allows, as the name implies, the initiation and management of outbound communications over voice, SMS, or email. Amazon Connect is an easy-to-use omnichannel cloud contact center that helps you provide customer service at a lower cost. In just a few clicks, you can set up and make changes to your contact center, so agents can begin helping customers right away. Amazon Connect Wisdom Wisdom reduces the time agents spend searching for answers. Today, when agents require…
