You can now use Apache HBase 1.2 on Amazon EMR release 4.6.0 . Apache HBase is a massively scalable, distributed big data store in the Apache Hadoop ecosystem. It is an open-source, non-relational, versioned database which runs on top of the Hadoop Distributed Filesystem (HDFS), and it is built for random, strictly consistent realtime access for tables with billions of rows and millions of columns. It has tight integration with Apache Hadoop, Apache Hive , and Apache Pig , so you can easily combine massively parallel analytics with fast data access. Apache HBase’s data model, throughput, and fault tolerance are a good match for workloads in ad tech, web analytics, financial services, applications using time-series data, and many more.

Amazon VPC Flow Logs is now available in the Sao Paulo region. VPC Flow Logs is a feature that enables you to capture information about the IP traffic going to and from your VPC.
