Today, we’re pleased to announce the latest service in the Amazon SageMaker suite that will make labeling datasets easier than ever before. Ground Truth Plus is a turn-key service that uses an expert workforce to deliver high-quality training datasets fast, and reduces costs by up to 40 percent. The Challenges of Machine Learning Model Creation One of the biggest challenges in building and training machine learning (ML) models is sourcing enough high-quality, labeled data at scale to feed into and train those models so that they can make an accurate prediction. On the face of it, labeling data might seem like a fairly straightforward task… Step 1: Get data Step 2: Label it …but this is far from the reality.…

New DynamoDB Table Class – Save Up To 60% in Your DynamoDB Costs
Today we are announcing Amazon DynamoDB Standard-Infrequent Access (DynamoDB Standard-IA). A new table class for DynamoDB that reduces storage costs by 60 percent compared to existing DynamoDB Standard tables, and that delivers the same performance, durability, and scaling. Nowadays, many customers are moving their infrequently accessed data between DynamoDB and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). This means that customers are developing a process to migrate the data and build complex applications that must support two different APIs—one for DynamoDB and another for Amazon S3. DynamoDB Standard-IA table class is designed for customers who want a cost-optimized solution for storing infrequently accessed data in DynamoDB without changing any application code. Using this new table class, you get the single-digit millisecond…
New – Amazon RDS Custom for SQL Server Is Generally Available

RDS Custom lets you access and customize your database server host and operating system, for example, by applying special patches and changing the database software settings to support third-party applications that require privileged access. Today, I am happy to announce the general availability of Amazon RDS Custom for SQL Server to support applications that have dependencies on specific configurations and third-party applications that require customizations in corporate, e-commerce, and content management systems, such as Microsoft SharePoint. With RDS Custom for SQL Server, you can enable features that require elevated privileges like SQL…
New – Amazon DevOps Guru for RDS to Detect, Diagnose, and Resolve Amazon Aurora-Related Issues using ML
Today we are announcing Amazon DevOps Guru for RDS, a new capability for Amazon DevOps Guru. It allows developers to easily detect, diagnose, and resolve performance and operational issues in Amazon Aurora. Hundreds of thousands of customers nowadays are using Amazon Aurora because it is highly available, scalable, and durable. But as applications grow in size and complexity, it becomes more challenging for these customers to detect and resolve operational and performance issues quickly. During last year’s re:Invent, we announced DevOps Guru, a service that uses machine learning (ML) to automatically detect and alert customers of application issues, including database problems. Today we are announcing DevOps Guru for RDS to help developers using Amazon Aurora databases to detect, diagnose, and…
