Today, AWS announced that AWS Transform for .NET can automatically generate unit tests for the code it modernizes. When enabled, AWS Transform generates unit tests that target the testable classes in your transformed .NET application, such as business logic and controllers, giving you an automated test safety net on the modernized code as part of the same job that performs the migration. Modernizing a .NET Framework application to modern .NET produces a transformed, buildable codebase, but teams previously had to write test coverage for that modernized code by hand. With this launch, AWS Transform assesses your application for testability in…

Amazon API Gateway now supports configurable delivery destinations and larger log events for REST API execution logs. Previously, execution logs were delivered to a single API Gateway-managed CloudWatch Logs log group with log events truncated at 1 KB, limiting visibility into request and response data. You can now route execution logs up to 1 MB to your own Amazon CloudWatch Logs log groups, Amazon S3 buckets, or Amazon Data Firehose streams, and deliver to multiple destinations simultaneously. For example, you can route execution logs to Amazon S3 in Apache Parquet format for cost-efficient long-term storage and analysis with Amazon Athena…

AWS Lambda recursive loop detection is now supported for functions running in Europe Sovereign Cloud. Recursive loop detection automatically detects and stops recursive invocations between Lambda functions and other supported services, preventing unexpected billing caused by unintended recursive loops. Customers use event sources such as Amazon S3, Amazon SQS, and Amazon SNS to build event driven applications that trigger Lambda functions. Misconfiguration or code defect can cause events to be sent back to the same source that triggered the Lambda function, causing recursive loops and unintended usage. When such a loop is detected, recursive…

In Kubernetes, resource allocation has historically been a static decision made during a Pod's initial scheduling and placement. With the graduation of the core in-Place Pod resize feature to General Availability in v1.35, application developers and cluster operators gained the powerful ability to dynamically adjust CPU and memory allocations of running containers without incurring disruptive restarts or application downtime. However, in-place resizing introduced a unique resource scheduling gap: if a running Pod requested a resource scale-up that exceeded the host node's allocatable headroom, the Kubelet was forced to mark the request as De…

Today, AWS announces the general availability of second-generation single-rack AWS Outposts, a self-contained 42U rack that integrates compute, storage and networking into a single compact unit purpose-built for workloads requiring low latency, local data processing, and data residency in space and power constrained locations. A single-rack Outposts delivers up to 2,688 vCPU and 100 TB of Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) storage. Moreover, like multi-rack Outposts, single-rack Outposts support the latest x86-powered EC2 instances, including general purpose (M7i, M8i), compute-optimized (C7i, C8i), memory-optimized (R7i, R8i), and Outp…

You can now build full-stack search and AI applications in minutes using Amazon OpenSearch Serverless on v0 by Vercel, an AI-powered platform that transforms your ideas into production-ready web applications. OpenSearch Serverless eliminates infrastructure management and automatically scales capacity up and down based on demand, so you can focus on building and not managing clusters. With this launch, you can use natural language prompts to build applications powered by OpenSearch Serverless for full-text search and vector search for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workloads, all without leaving the v0 interface. To get started, simply …

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) now supports the IAM condition keys for CPU and memory resources on the RunTask and StartTask APIs. Administrators can use these keys to enforce consistent CPU and memory limits across all methods of launching ECS tasks. This helps organizations prevent unexpected cost overruns and keep workloads aligned with their resource policies. Previously, the ecs:task-cpu and ecs:task-memory condition keys were available only on the RegisterTaskDefinition, CreateService, and UpdateService APIs. These condition keys are now extended on the RunTask and StartTask APIs. Now, IAM policies that reference these c…

With synthetic monitors in Amazon CloudWatch Network Monitoring, you can now determine whether a network performance issue on a path that crosses an AWS Transit Gateway inter-Region peering connection is caused by the AWS network. This helps network operators and application developers cut the time spent isolating the source of degradation on these paths. Previously, for synthetic monitors, the network health indicator (NHI) covered only paths that connect through AWS Direct Connect. With this release, synthetic monitors extend it to paths that reach a destination in a peered Region over Transit Gateway inter-Region peering. For these paths,…

Today, AWS announces that Amazon CloudWatch Network Monitor synthetic monitoring now provides its network health indicator (NHI) for paths that reach a destination across an AWS Transit Gateway inter-Region peering connection. Amazon CloudWatch Network Monitor is a fully managed service that measures packet loss and latency for the hybrid network paths connecting your AWS-hosted applications to your destinations. The NHI helps network operators and application developers rapidly determine whether an observed degradation is within the AWS network. Previously, the NHI covered only paths that connect through AWS Direct Connect. With this launch…

AWS Storage Gateway now supports FIPS 140-3 validated endpoints over AWS PrivateLink for Amazon S3 File Gateway. Previously, FIPS endpoints for File Gateway were available only over the public internet. Now you can keep FIPS-compliant traffic on the private AWS network, making it easier to use Storage Gateway for regulated workloads. With this launch, your File Gateway can reach the Storage Gateway service endpoints privately through a FIPS interface VPC endpoint in your VPC. You can also create NFS and SMB file shares that reach Amazon S3 through an S3 FIPS interface endpoint, enabling FIPS-compliant private connectivity for your end-to-end…

AWS Elemental MediaTailor now supports Low-Latency HTTP Live Streaming (LL-HLS) ad insertion using HLS Interstitials. MediaTailor is a channel assembly and personalized ad insertion service for video providers that monetizes live streams, linear channels, and video-on-demand content. With this launch, video providers can insert ads into low-latency live streams while holding the reduced latency their viewers expect. LL-HLS reduces live latency by delivering partial segments and letting players hold a playlist request open until the next segment part is ready, which requires media playlists to be cacheable at the content delivery network (CDN…

Today, we're announcing that Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) is now available in the Asia Pacific (Osaka), Asia Pacific (Taipei), Europe (Spain), and Israel (Tel Aviv) Regions. This expansion provides more options to leverage the scale and flexibility of AWS for running your VMware workloads in the cloud. Amazon EVS lets you run VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) directly within your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) on EC2 bare-metal instances, powered by AWS Nitro. You can set up a complete VCF environment in just a few hours, enabling rapid workload migration to AWS to help you eliminate aging infrastructure, reduce operational ris…
