AWS Application Migration Service supports AWS App2Container Replatforming

By

Starting today, AWS Application Migration Service (AWS MGN) provides an action for Replatforming workloads using AWS App2Container (A2C). You can now use Application Migration Service to replatform applications running on migrated servers into Amazon ECS, Amazon EKS, and AWS App Runner. The new feature provides support for replatforming .NET and Java based applications, including containerizing .NET framework based applications to Windows containers, and replatforming JBoss, Apache Tomcat, Java, and .NET core applications to Linux containers. For each migrated server, you can generate application container images, Dockerfiles, and CloudFormation artifacts required to deploy to Amazon ECS, Amazon EKS, or AWS App Runner.

By

AWS announces Amazon Aurora Optimized Reads for Aurora PostgreSQL, a new price-performance capability available on new r6gd and r6id instances that delivers up to 8x improved query latency and up to 30% cost savings compared to instances without it, for applications with large datasets that exceed the memory capacity of a database instance.

Deploy SAP applications programmatically using AWS Launch Wizard APIs

By

AWS Launch Wizard now allows you to deploy SAP applications using APIs in single-node, multi-node, and high availability architectures. This gives you the choice to use Launch Wizard APIs (through the AWS Software Development Kit (SDK) client or CLIs) or the existing console-based experience while still taking advantage of the built-in automation and best practices that Launch Wizard provides.

QuickSight launches FLOAT data type support for SPICE datasets

By

Amazon QuickSight is excited to announce the launch of FLOAT data type support for SPICE datasets. Before we enable FLOAT data type, SPICE only supports FIXED decimal data type. FIXED decimal data type provides the benefit of exact mathematical operations, but since it only supports four decimal places, and rounding while ingesting data and performing calculations, it causes accuracy and overflow problems. The new FLOAT, i.e. floating-point numeric data type, provides approximately 16 significant digits of accuracy. These significant digits can be on either side of the decimal point, thus allowing numbers with more accuracy as well as larger range. If users are working with very small numbers (close to zero), they can use approximately 15 digits to the right of the decimal point. This helps avoid the problem of truncation and is consistent with other products’ results. Additionally, with a maximum value of approximately 1.8*10^308, the possibility of an overflow error is effectively minimized. SPICE has added this data type without sacrificing performance, so customers can continue to experience the same super-fast performance they’ve come to expect. For further details, visit here .
