AWS Trusted Advisor now supports a new fault tolerance check for events that fail processing during asynchronous invocations with AWS Lambda. AWS Trusted Advisor evaluates your AWS account with automated checks and provides cloud optimization recommendations to reduce costs, improve performance, increase security and fault tolerance, and monitor service quotas.

Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA) has added certification for International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) assessment. Amazon Web Services (AWS) maintains certifications through extensive audits of its controls to ensure that information security risks that affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of company and customer information are appropriately managed. 

Starting today, Amazon EC2 High Memory instances with 9TiB of memory (u-9tb1.112xlarge) are now available in Asia Pacific (Seoul) Region. Customers can start using these new High Memory instances with On Demand and Savings Plan purchase options.

The AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) Command Line Interface (CLI) announces the launch of SAM CLI local testing and debugging on HashiCorp Terraform. The AWS SAM CLI is a developer tool that makes it easier to build, test, package, and deploy serverless applications. Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that lets you build, change, and version cloud and on-premises resources safely and efficiently.

You can now use the geospatial image within SageMaker Studio’s notebook with GPU-based instances. Support for GPU-based instances with the geospatial image makes it easier for data scientists and machine learning (ML) engineers to build, train, and deploy ML models using geospatial data.  

Amazon Personalize now makes it easier to implement machine learning powered personalization by reducing the need for experimentation with increased dataset column limits. Amazon Personalize uses datasets provided by customers to train custom personalization models on their behalf. Some customers experiment with multiple iterations of their datasets in order to optimize model performance while fitting within column limits on datasets. With this launch, we increased column limits to reduce the need for experimentation and accelerate implementation. Customers can now bring double the number of columns to their Items datasets (100 columns) and five times as many columns to their Users datasets (25 columns). With these increases, customers can now bring more of their data and allow Personalize to optimize model performance on their behalf.

AWS Compute Optimizer now supports 11 additional Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance types. Newly supported instance types include accelerated computing instance families (G4dn, P3). The newly launched recommendations help customers discover opportunities to optimize their Machine Learning (ML), High-performance computing (HPC), and graphically intensive workloads. 

Customers can now create Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file systems in the AWS Israel (Tel Aviv) Region.
