Amazon CloudWatch Synthetics adds support for canary resources deletion when a canary is deleted
Amazon CloudWatch Synthetics now supports deletion of underlying canary resources along with the canary deletion. When you delete a canary you can choose whether to also delete related resources created by the canary, thus making canary resources management easier and efficient. Synthetics canaries that run on a defined frequency to monitor the health and performance of your endpoints and APIs creates these resources as part of canary creation step.
How Putin made Swedes and Finns warm to NATO
Shortly before the war, only 24% of Finns and 37% of Swedes supported their countries seeking NATO membership. At the start of May 2022, 76% of Finns and 48% of Swedes supported joining NATO. By mid- May the Swedish percentage had climbed to 60%. Despite being one of Putin’s stated reasons for launching the war …

PCIM: Precision 200A fluxgate current sensor
Danisense launched a series of ultra-stable, ppm-accuracy fluxgate current transducers at PCIM this week, that are smaller than its previous offerings. For dc and ac measurement, DT series current transducers use closed-loop compensated sensing with fixed excitation frequency and second harmonic zero flux detection for “better than 2 ppm” linearity, according to the company. Signal …
