AWS Week in Review – February 20, 2023
Since the devastating earthquake in Türkiye and Syria, Amazon has activated disaster relief services to quickly provide relief items to impacted areas.

A year ago, in March 2022, we launched a new VPC creation experience that streamlines the process of creating and connecting VPC resources. With just one click, even across multiple Availability Zones (AZs), you can create and connect VPC resources, eliminating more than 90 percent of the manual steps required in the past. The new creation experience is centered around an interactive diagram that displays a preview of…
New – AWS CloudTrail Lake Supports Ingesting Activity Events From Non-AWS Sources
In November 2013, we announced AWS CloudTrail to track user activity and API usage. AWS CloudTrail enables auditing, security monitoring, and operational troubleshooting. CloudTrail records user activity and API calls across AWS services as events. CloudTrail events help you answer the questions of “who did what, where, and when?”. Recently we have improved the ability for you to simplify your auditing and security analysis by using AWS CloudTrail Lake. CloudTrail Lake is a managed data lake for capturing, storing, accessing, and analyzing user and API activity on AWS for audit, security, and operational purposes. You can aggregate and immutably store your activity events, and run SQL-based queries for search and analysis. We have heard your feedback that aggregating activity information…
