Today, we would like to announce expansion of AWS Mainframe Modernization service to two additional regions: Europe (Spain) and Israel (Tel Aviv).

Today, we are excited to launch the ability for Amazon Monitron customers to use a static IP to commission their devices. Our gateway devices securely transfer Monitron vibration and temperature sensor data to the AWS Cloud, where the Monitron service analyzes the data for abnormal machine patterns using machine learning. Today, customers with firewall protection have to allow-list whole subdomains of amazonaws.com to enable this communication between the sensors installed in their factories and the AWS Cloud. Some customer prefer not to allow-list a full domain/subdomain due to security reasons. Others find it challenging due to limitations in their firewall configuration capabilities.

Today, Amazon Web Services announces that Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Capacity Blocks for ML now supports P5 instances in the US East (N. Virginia) Region and P4d instances in the US East (Ohio) and US West (Oregon) Regions. You can use EC2 Capacity Blocks to reserve highly sought-after GPU instances in Amazon EC2 UltraClusters for a future date for the amount of time that you need to run your machine learning (ML) workloads.

Amazon EventBridge event matching now runs on Open Source Event Ruler v1.5.0, enabling advanced filtering capabilities such as combining anything-but filtering (matching anything except for the value) with suffix filtering (matching against characters at the end of a value), and equals-ignore-case filtering (matching against a string regardless of case). For example, you can now match against values that don’t end with a specific file type such as .png or .jpeg. You can also combine prefix filtering (matching against characters at the beginning of a value) and suffix filtering with equals-ignore-case filtering.

Starting today, we are updating the AWS Free Tier for Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, 12 month free, to include 750 hours of public IPv4 address usage per month. If you are an existing or new AWS Free Tier customer for Amazon EC2, you will get 750 hours public IPv4 address usage per month free when launching any EC2 instance with a public IPv4 address. 

Amazon Cognito has added three features for customers using the SAML standard for federation. Customers can use Amazon Cognito user pools to send signed SAML authentication requests, require encrypted responses from a SAML identity provider, and use identity provider-initiated single sign-on (SSO) for SAML federation.  

Today, AWS announced the general availability of Windows support for Finch, an open source command line tool that allows developers to build, run, and publish Linux containers on Windows and macOS. Finch simplifies container development by bundling a minimal native client with a curated selection of open source components, allowing developers to build and manage containers without the hassle of managing intricate details.

Amazon Managed Blockchain (AMB) Query, which provides serverless access to multi-blockchain datasets, now delivers non-finalized blockchain transactions. This enables applications to quickly respond to the most recent events on the blockchain, including events from internal transactions.

With playback restriction policies in Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS), you can now enable cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) response headers and geo-blocking for IVS channels without having to implement token authorization.

For example, our Technology Editor highlights “a DIN rail process timing relay that is so flexible that it might have been quicker to list what it can’t do than what it can do”…
