In March 2020, we introduced Amazon Detective, a fully managed service that makes it easy to analyze, investigate, and quickly identify the root cause of potential security issues or suspicious activities. Amazon Detective continuously extracts temporal events such as login attempts, API calls, and network traffic from Amazon GuardDuty, AWS CloudTrail, and Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) Flow Logs into a graph model that summarizes the resource behaviors and interactions observed across your entire AWS environment. We have added new features such as AWS IAM Role session analysis, enhanced IP address analytics, Splunk integration, Amazon S3 and DNS finding types, and the support of AWS Organizations. Customers are rapidly moving to containers to deploy Kubernetes workloads with Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon…

AWS Week In Review – July 25, 2022
A few weeks ago, we hosted the first EMEA AWS Heroes Summit in Milan, Italy. This past week, I had the privilege to join the Americas AWS Heroes Summit in Seattle, Washington, USA. Meeting with our community experts is always inspiring and a great opportunity to learn from each other. During the Summit, AWS Heroes from North America and Latin America shared their thoughts with AWS developer advocates and product teams on topics such as serverless, containers, machine learning, data, and DevTools. You can learn more about the AWS Heroes program here. Last Week’s Launches Here are some launches that got my attention during the previous week: Cloudscape Design System – Cloudscape is an open source design system for creating…
Amazon Prime Day 2022 – AWS for the Win!
As part of my annual tradition to tell you about how AWS makes Prime Day possible, I am happy to be able to share some chart-topping metrics (check out my 2016, 2017, 2019, 2020, and 2021 posts for a look back). My purchases this year included a first aid kit, some wood brown filament for my 3D printer, and a non-stick frying pan! According to our official news release, Prime members worldwide purchased more than 100,000 items per minute during Prime Day, with best-selling categories including Amazon Devices, Consumer Electronics, and Home. Powered by AWS As always, AWS played a critical role in making Prime Day a success. A multitude of two-pizza teams worked together to make sure that every…
How We Sent an AWS Snowcone into Orbit
I have been a fan of space travel and the US space program since I was 4 or 5 years old. I remember reading about the Mercury and Gemini programs, and watched with excitement as Lunar Module Eagle landed on the Moon. Today, with the cost to reach Low Earth Orbit (LEO) seemingly declining with each launch, there are more opportunities than ever before to push the boundaries of what we know, conducting ever-more bold experiments and producing vast amounts of raw data. Making the situation even more interesting, today’s experiments can use more types of sensors, each collecting data with higher resolution and at a greater sampling frequency. Dealing with this vast amount of data is a huge challenge.…
