AWS Data Exchange subscribers can now use auto-export to automatically copy newly published revisions from their 3rd party data subscriptions to an Amazon S3 bucket of their choice in just a few clicks. With auto-export, subscribers no longer have to manually export new revisions or dedicate engineering resources to build ingestion pipelines that export new revisions as soon as they are published. For data subscribers that manage frequent updates to their file-based 3rd party data, auto-export saves significant time and effort.

AWS Step Functions now integrates with the AWS SDK, expanding the number of supported AWS Services from 17 to over 200 and AWS API Actions from 46 to over 9,000.

AWS Snowcone is now available in solid state drives (SSD) with 14TB storage capacity. AWS Snowcone is the smallest AWS Snow Family device equipped to handle edge computing, edge storage, and data transfers. With this launch, AWS Snowcone is now available in both hard disk drive (HDD) and solid state drive (SSD). Snowcone SSD has the same motherboard and industrial design as Snowcone, but Snowcone SSD will enable new data transfer and edge computing use cases that require 1) higher throughput performance 2) stronger vibration resistance operation 3) expanded durability and, 4) increased storage capacity (14TB Snowcone SSD vs. 8TB in Snowcone).

AWS Lambda  now allows customers to trigger functions from Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS ) queues that are in a different AWS account. Previously, customers could trigger Lambda functions from SQS queues in the same account only. Starting today, customers can create Lambda functions in multiple AWS accounts without needing to replicate the event source in each account.

Amazon SageMaker JumpStart helps you quickly and easily get started with machine learning. SageMaker JumpStart provides a set of solutions for the most common use cases that can be deployed readily with just a few clicks and one-click deployment and fine-tuning of popular open source models. Starting today, you can now access a collection of multimodal financial text analysis tools, including example notebooks, text models, and a solution. 

AQUA (Advanced Query Accelerator) for Amazon Redshift is now generally available in three additional AWS regions: Europe (Stockholm), Asia Pacific (Seoul), and US West (N. California).

TI claims to have introduced the industry’s ‘smallest and most accurate 1.5-W isolated DC/DC bias-supply module’. The UCC14240-Q1 uses a proprietary integrated transformer technology to enable designers to cut their power solution size in half for use in high-voltage environments such as electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid EVs, motor-drive systems and grid-tied inverters. For more information, …
