Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base now supports automatic sync scheduling for data source connectors - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

AWS announces automatic sync scheduling for Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base, a fully managed retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) service that handles data ingestion, storage optimization, and advanced retrieval without requiring you to manage vector databases or data pipelines. Previously, keeping your knowledge base current required manually triggering a sync each time your source data changed or building a custom solution. Now, you can configure daily, weekly, or monthly sync schedules for all native data source connectors, so your AI agents always retrieve the most up-to-date information. With automatic sync scheduling, you can match your sync frequency to how often your source content changes. For example, set a daily sync for a rapidly evolving customer support knowledge base in Confluence, a weekly sync for SharePoint policy documents that update periodically, or a monthly sync for reference materials stored in Amazon S3. This eliminates the need to build and maintain cus...

Amazon ECS introduces Early Success Criteria for service deployments - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) now supports Early Success Criteria for rolling service deployments, giving you the flexibility to define when a deployment is considered successful based on your confidence level and the operational needs of your workload. This can help you complete deployments sooner and unblock subsequent deployments, CI/CD pipelines, and other dependent operations. With Early Success Criteria, you configure the healthy percent - the proportion of desired tasks that must be running and healthy on the target service revision before the deployment is marked successful. For example, with a desired count of 100 and a healthy percent of 90%, Amazon ECS marks the deployment successful after 90 tasks are healthy and continues launching the remaining tasks through regular service scaling, outside the deployment lifecycle. This can benefit workloads running on specialized or constrained capacity, such as GPU-accelerated inference workloads, where hardware ...

Amazon EC2 P6-B300 instances are now available in the AWS Asia Pacific (Jakarta) Region - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Starting today, Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute (Amazon EC2) P6-B300 instances are available in the AWS Asia Pacific (Jakarta) Region. P6-B300 instances provide 8xNVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs with 2.1 TB high bandwidth GPU memory, 6.4 Tbps EFA networking, 300 Gbps dedicated ENA throughput, and 4 TB of system memory. P6-B300 instances deliver 2x networking bandwidth, 1.5x GPU memory size, and 1.5x GPU TFLOPS (at FP4, without sparsity) compared to P6-B200 instances, making them well suited to train and deploy large trillion-parameter foundation models (FMs) including large language models (LLMs) with sophisticated techniques. The higher networking and larger memory deliver faster training times and more token throughput for AI workloads. P6-B300 instances are now available in p6-b300.48xlarge size in the following AWS Regions: US West (Oregon), AWS GovCloud (US-East), US East (N. Virginia), Asia Pacific (Hyderabad, Jakarta, Seoul), and South America (Sao Paulo) Regions. To learn more abo...

Amazon MemoryDB now supports AWS PrivateLink in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

You can now use AWS PrivateLink to privately access Amazon MemoryDB from your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) in the AWS GovCloud (US-West) and AWS GovCloud (US-East) Regions. AWS PrivateLink provides private connectivity between VPCs, AWS services, and on-premises networks, without exposing traffic to the public internet and securing your network traffic. To use AWS PrivateLink with Amazon MemoryDB, you create an interface VPC endpoint for Amazon MemoryDB in your VPC using the Amazon VPC console, AWS SDK, or AWS CLI. With an interface VPC endpoint, you can privately access the Amazon MemoryDB APIs from applications inside your Amazon VPC. You can also access the VPC endpoint from other VPCs using VPC Peering or your on-premises environments using AWS VPN or AWS Direct Connect. To learn more, read the documentation , or get started in the Amazon VPC Console . Post Updated on September 2, 2026 at 03:06PM

Amazon Linux 2027 is now available in public preview - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Today, AWS announces the public preview of Amazon Linux 2027 (AL2027), the next version of the Amazon Linux operating system, purpose-built for cloud-native workloads on AWS with performance, scale, and security in mind. Built on AL2023's baseline, AL2027 is designed for customers running web applications, databases, containerized microservices, AI/ML workloads, and large-scale infrastructure who need a secure, stable, and AWS-native operating system. AL2027 runs on kernel 7.1+, enables SELinux in enforcing mode as default, accelerates cryptographic performance with AWS-LC, and keeps builders current with the latest toolchains and language runtimes. For AI and machine learning workloads, it delivers access to accelerator drivers, including AWS Neuron driver support. The public preview gives customers hands-on access before general availability (GA) to experiment with new features, validate their applications, and provide direct feedback to the Amazon Linux team. AL2027 Preview ...

AWS Transform announces general availability of Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP support - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

AWS Transform for migrations adds Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP as a generally available storage target for block storage workloads, alongside Amazon EBS. With AWS Transform, you can now migrate block storage directly to FSx for ONTAP as part of the same migration wave that handles compute and networks, eliminating the need for intermediate storage platforms and separate migration tools. Whether migrating from NetApp ONTAP, other block storage platforms, or VMware environments, your data access patterns and operational processes remain unchanged with FSx for ONTAP. Now your workloads run on a fully managed, production-ready shared storage service that combines ONTAP's enterprise capabilities with the scalability and resiliency of AWS. What previously required stitching together multiple tools is now a single migration workflow. This capability is available in all AWS Transform supported target Regions and where Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP is supported . To get started, visit AWS...

[MS] The perils of binding to value types in XAML - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

A colleague ran into trouble with their XAML program. They were using a FlipView control to bind to a collection, but when the user tried to navigate the FlipView using an assistive technology tool, there were cases where the navigation failed. Some time later, they came back with the solution to the mystery. The team noticed that their data model consisted only of strings and other value types, so they decided to declare their data model as a struct rather than a full runtimeclass , thereby avoiding a lot of boilerplate typing. If defined as a runtimeclass : // MyComponent.idl runtimeclass MyPageContent { String Title { get; }; String Description { get; }; String LinkUri { get; }; Boolean IsNew{ get; }; } // MyPageContent.h namespace winrt::MyComponent { struct MyPageContent : implements<MyPageContent> { MyPageContent(hstring const& title, hstring const& description, hstring const& link,...
