Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) M7i instances powered by custom 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors (code-named Sapphire Rapids) are available in the Africa (Cape Town) region. These custom processors, available only on AWS, offer up to 15% better performance over comparable x86-based Intel processors utilized by other cloud providers.

M7i deliver up to 15% better price-performance compared to M6i. M7i instances are a great choice for workloads that need the largest instance sizes or continuous high CPU usage, such as gaming servers, CPU-based machine learning (ML), and video-streaming. M7i offer larger instance sizes, up to 48xlarge, and two bare metal sizes (metal-24xl, metal-48xl). These bare-metal sizes support built-in Intel accelerators: Data Streaming Accelerator, In-Memory Analytics Accelerator, and QuickAssist Technology that are used to facilitate efficient offload and acceleration of data operations and optimize performance for workloads.

AWS announces the launch of source document references for Automated Reasoning policies, simplifying the task of reviewing and refining an Automated Reasoning policy. Automated Reasoning checks uses formal verification techniques to validate that content generated by foundation models is compliant with an Automated Reasoning policy. Automated Reasoning checks deliver up to 99% accuracy at detecting correct responses from LLMs, giving you provable assurance in detecting AI hallucinations while also assisting with ambiguity detection in model responses.

To create Automated Reasoning policies, users upload documents that describe the rules in a knowledge domain like HR policies or financial transaction approval guidelines. These documents are translated into a collection of formal logic rules and variables called an Automated Reasoning policy. With source document references, users can now review the generated policy rules and variables using references to content they are familiar with from the original document,

Test generation for Automated Reasoning checks is now available in the US (N. Virginia), US (Ohio), US (Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), and Europe (Paris) Regions. Customers can access the service through the Amazon Bedrock console, as well as the Amazon Bedrock Python SDK.

To learn more about Automated Reasoning checks and how you can integrate it into your generative AI workflows, please read the Amazon Bedrock documentation , review the tutorials on the AWS AI blog , and visit the Bedrock Guardrails webpage .

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) Node Monitoring Agent is now open source. You can access the Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent source code and contribute to its development on GitHub .

Running workloads reliably in Kubernetes clusters can be challenging. Cluster administrators often have to resort to manual methods of monitoring and repairing degraded nodes in their clusters. The Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent simplifies this process by automatically monitoring and publishing node-level system, storage, networking, and accelerator issues as node conditions, which are used by Amazon EKS for automatic node repair. With the Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent’s source code available on GitHub, you now have visibility into the agent’s implementation, can customize it to fit your requirements, and can contribute directly to its ongoing development.

The Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent is included in Amazon EKS Auto Mode and is available as an Amazon EKS add-on in all AWS Regions where Amazon EKS is available.

To learn more about the Amazon EKS Node Monitoring Agent and node repair, visit the Amazon EKS documentation .
