AWS has updated Live Streaming on AWS, a solution that automatically provisions the services necessary to build a highly resilient and scalable architecture that delivers your live video content worldwide. The solution now leverages the broadcast-grade features of AWS Elemental MediaLive to ingest your input feeds and transcode your content into two adaptive bitrate (ABR) HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) streams. MediaPackage packages those streams into HLS, Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), and Microsoft Smooth Streaming (MSS) formats that are distributed through Amazon CloudFront. The solution also includes a demo HTML preview player that you can use to test the solution.

Amazon Aurora Parallel Query is a feature of the Amazon Aurora database that provides faster analytical queries over your transactional data. It can speed up your queries by up to 2 orders of magnitude, while maintaining high throughput for your core transactional workload. Read about it on the AWS Blog .

AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) and the AWS Schema Conversion Tool (AWS SCT) make it easier for you to migrate your Apache Cassandra NoSQL databases to Amazon DynamoDB . Using AWS DMS and the AWS SCT, you can now migrate your Cassandra databases to DynamoDB and then replicate ongoing changes to your DynamoDB tables. After you have migrated a Cassandra database, you can benefit from the consistent, single-digit millisecond latency at any scale of DynamoDB.

Migrating from Cassandra to DynamoDB enables developers to focus on building products rather than managing and maintaining database infrastructure. The DynamoDB serverless provisioning model eliminates the need to overprovision database infrastructure. In addition, DynamoDB does not require specialized resourcing or licensing. As a result, customers run their DynamoDB-backed applications with up to a 70% TCO savings compared with Cassandra. Finally, DynamoDB global tables, backup and restore, and encryption at rest provide developers similar functionality as Cassandra, but with the benefits of these capabilities being easier to implement and without overhead or downtime.
