At Amazon Web Services (AWS), the vast majority of new capabilities are driven by your direct feedback. Two years ago, Jeff announced additional checksum algorithms and the optional client-side computation of checksums to make sure the objects stored on Amazon S3 are exactly what you sent. You told us you love this extra verification because it gives you confidence the object stored is the one you sent. You also told us you would prefer to have this extra verification enabled automatically, freeing you from developing additional code. Starting today, we’re updating the Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) default behavior when you upload objects. To build upon its existing durability posture, Amazon S3 now automatically verifies that your data is…

AWS Database Migration Service now automates time-intensive schema conversion tasks using generative AI
Starting today, AWS Database Migration Service Schema Conversion (AWS DMS SC) introduces a new capability to improve the database schema conversion experience by automatically converting up to 90 percent of schema objects from commercial databases to PostgreSQL migrations. AWS DMS is a cloud service that makes it possible to migrate relational databases, data warehouses, NoSQL databases, and other types of data stores. You can use AWS DMS to migrate your data into the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud or between combinations of cloud and on-premises setups. Today, more than 1 million databases have been migrated using AWS Database Migration Service. AWS DMS helps you migrate your data from one database system to another. And, when migrating between different database engines,…
AWS Verified Access now supports secure access to resources over non-HTTP(S) protocols (in preview)
AWS Verified Access provides secure access to your corporate applications and resources without a virtual private network (VPN). We launched Verified Access in preview at re:Invent 2 years ago as a way to provide secure, VPN-less access to corporate applications, enabling organizations to manage network access based on identity and device security instead of IP addresses, which increases control and security over application access. Today, Verified Access is launching a preview of its secure, VPN-less access capabilities to non-HTTP(S) applications and resources, enabling zero trust access to corporate resources over protocols such as Secure Shell (SSH) and Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). Organizations increasingly require secure, remote access to internal resources such as databases, remote desktops, and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud…
Amazon CloudFront now accepts your applications’ gRPC calls
Starting today, you can deploy Amazon CloudFront, our global content delivery network (CDN), in front of your gRPC API endpoints. gRPC is a modern, efficient, and language-agnostic framework for building APIs. It uses Protocol Buffers (protobuf) as its interface definition language (IDL), which enable you to define services and message types in a platform-independent manner. With gRPC, communication between services is achieved through lightweight and high-performance remote procedure calls (RPCs) over HTTP/2. This promotes efficient and low-latency communication across services, making it ideal for microservices architectures. gRPC offers features such as bidirectional streaming, flow control, and automatic code generation for a variety of programming languages. It’s well-suited for scenarios in which you require high performance, efficient communication, and real-time data…
