I love the AWS Twitch channel for watching interesting online live shows such as AWS On Air, Containers from the Couch, and Serverless Office Hours. Last week, AWS Storage Day 2022 was hosted virtually on the AWS Twitch channel and covered recent announcements and insights that address customers’ needs to reduce and optimize storage costs and build data resiliency into their organization. For example, we pre-announced Amazon File Cache, an upcoming new service on AWS that accelerates and simplifies hybrid cloud workloads. To learn more, watch the on-demand recording. Two weeks ago, AWS Silicon Innovation Day 2022 was also hosted on the AWS Twitch channel. This event covered an overview of our history of silicon development and provided useful sessions on specific AWS chip innovations such as AWS…

Today we are announcing the general availability of license-included Visual Studio software on Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute (Amazon EC2) instances. You can now purchase fully compliant AWS-provided licenses of Visual Studio with a per-user subscription fee. Amazon EC2 provides preconfigured Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) of Visual Studio Enterprise 2022 and Visual Studio Professional 2022. You can launch on-demand Windows instances including Visual Studio and Windows Server licenses without long-term licensing commitments. Amazon EC2 provides a broad choice of instances, and customers not only have the flexibility of paying for what their end users use but can also provide the capacity and right hardware to their end users. You can simply launch EC2 instances using license-included AMIs, and multiple authorized users…

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…

We launched the general-purpose Amazon EC2 M6a instances at AWS re:Invent 2021 and compute-intensive C6a instances in February of this year. These instances are powered by the 3rd Gen AMD EPYC processors running at frequencies up to 3.6 GHz to offer up to 35 percent better price performance versus the previous generation instances. Today, we are expanding our portfolio to include memory-optimized Amazon EC2 R6a instances featuring AMD EPYC (Milan) processors 10 percent less expensive than comparable x86 instances. R6a instances, powered by 3rd Gen AMD EPYC processors are well suited for memory-intensive applications such as high-performance databases (relational databases, noSQL databases), distributed web scale in-memory caches (such as memcached, Redis), in-memory databases such as real-time big data analytics (such…
