Amazon EC2 supports nested virtualization on virtual Amazon EC2 instances - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Starting today, customers can create nested environments within virtualized Amazon EC2 instances. Previously, customers could only create and manage virtual machines inside bare metal EC2 instances. With this launch, customers can create nested virtual machines by running KVM or Hyper-V on virtual EC2 instances. Customers can leverage this capability for use cases such as running emulators for mobile applications, simulating in-vehicle hardware for automobiles, and running Windows Subsystem for Linux on Windows workstations.

Amazon EKS now enforces upgrade insights checks as part of cluster upgrades - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Today, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) announced a new control to prevent accidental cluster upgrades when issues are already detected that may impact application compatibility with the next Kubernetes version. This feature leverages EKS upgrade insights and is significant step towards giving cluster administrators confidence with Kubernetes version upgrades. EKS upgrade insights automatically scan clusters against a list of potential Kubernetes version upgrade impacting issues such as deprecated Kubernetes API usage. EKS periodically updates the list of insight checks to perform, based on evaluations of changes in the Kubernetes project, as well as changes introduced in the EKS service along with new versions. With this new control, EKS will prevent you from upgrading the EKS clusters if there are any Kubernetes version upgrade impacting issues surfaced by EKS upgrade insights. Once the upgrade impacting issues are resolved, you will be able to upgrade the Kubernetes versio...

[MS] Debugger breakpoints are usually implemented by patching the in-memory copy of the code - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

In practice, when you set a code breakpoint in the debugger, the debugger replaces the instruction at that location with a breakpoint instruction.¹ When execution reaches that instruction, it will encounter the breakpoint instruction and break into the debugger. When the program has been stopped in the debugger, what happens next can vary from debugger to debugger. Some debuggers remove all their breakpoints when the program stops, and then restore the breakpoints when the program resumes. Other debuggers leave the breakpoints in place even when the program is stopped. In both cases, if you inspect the memory in the debugger, you will see the original unpatched code. In the first case, it's because the code really is unpatched; the breakpoint instructions are removed. In the second case, it's because the debugger is lying to you and showing you the original bytes even though they aren't what are in memory right now. Most of the time, this deception is insignificant. Eve...

Anthropic's Claude 3.5 Sonnet model now available in Amazon Bedrock - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Anthropic’s Claude 3.5 Sonnet foundation model is now generally available in Amazon Bedrock . Anthropic’s most intelligent model to date, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, sets a new industry standard for intelligence. The model outperforms other generative AI models in the industry as well as Anthropic’s previously most intelligent model, Claude 3 Opus, on a wide range of evaluations, all while being one-fifth of the cost of Opus. You can now get intelligence better than Claude 3 Opus, at the same cost of Anthropic’s original Claude 3 Sonnet model. The frontier intelligence displayed by Claude 3.5 Sonnet combined with cost-effective pricing, makes this model ideal for complex tasks such as context-sensitive customer support, orchestrating multi-step workflows, streamlining code translations, and creating user-facing applications. Claude 3.5 Sonnet exhibits marked improvements in near-human levels of comprehension and fluency. The model represents a significant leap in understanding nuance, humor, and...
