With today’s announcement, you can now use CloudFormation templates to setup, run, and clean-up AWS SimSpace Weaver simulations. AWS SimSpace Weaver is a fully managed compute service that helps customers deploy large spatial simulations in the cloud. Launched at AWS re:Invent 2022 , AWS SimSpace Weaver allows customers to create seamless virtual worlds with millions of objects that can interact with one another in real time without worrying about managing the back-end infrastructure. AWS CloudFormation is a service that enables you to model, provision, and manage AWS and third-party resources by treating infrastructure as code.

AWS Elemental MediaTailor now supports fast schedule updates in Channel Assembly

By

You can now make changes to an AWS Elemental MediaTailor Channel closer to the live edge. When a channel is running and content is playing, it is often necessary to amend the schedule quickly in reaction to unplanned or non-determined events. For example, cutting from a live source to a VOD source after a live event has concluded or adjusting what source plays for an upcoming program a few minutes before it begins. From today, you can make certain program updates in a channel’s schedule to take effect 60 seconds or more in the future. 

Amazon Fraud Detector introduces Cold Start model training for customers with limited historical data

By

Today, Amazon Fraud Detector (AFD) announced the launch of the Cold Start feature. Now customers can start training a sign-up or a transaction frauds detection model with minimal historical-data. Up to now, AFD customers were required to provide 10K+ labeled events with at least 400 examples of fraud to train a model. With the release of Cold Start only 50 labeled fraud events and 50 unlabeled events are necessary. The new feature introduces intelligent methods for treating your unlabeled data and optimizes model training with small datasets.
