Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) is announcing the general availability of Amazon DocumentDB Elastic Clusters, a new type of Amazon DocumentDB cluster that let’s you elastically scale your document database to handle millions of reads and writes per second with petabytes of storage.

Amazon Athena now supports Apache Spark, a popular open-source distributed processing system that is optimized for fast analytics workloads against data of any size. Athena is an interactive query service that helps you query petabytes of data wherever it lives, such as in data lakes, databases, or other data stores. With Amazon Athena for Apache Spark, you get the streamlined, interactive, serverless experience of Athena with Spark, in addition to SQL.

Amazon SageMaker Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) that provides a single, web-based visual interface where users can access purpose-built tools to perform all machine learning (ML) development steps, from preparing data to building, training, and deploying ML models. Today, we are excited to announce a redesign that enhances the user experience by improving navigation, discoverability, and overall look and feel for SageMaker Studio.

Amazon SageMaker now supports geospatial machine learning (ML), making it easier for data scientists and ML engineers to build, train, and deploy models using geospatial data. Today, the majority of all data generated contains geospatial information, but only a small fraction of it is used for ML because accessing, processing, and visualizing the data is complex, time consuming, and expensive.

Trusted Language Extensions for PostgreSQL is a new open source development kit to help you build high performance extensions that run safely on PostgreSQL. With Trusted Language Extensions, developers can install extensions written in a trusted language on Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition and Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for PostgreSQL.

Amazon Redshift is introducing Multi-AZ deployments (Preview) that support running your data warehouse in multiple AWS Availability Zones (AZ) simultaneously and continue operating in unforeseen failure scenarios. A Multi-AZ deployment is intended for customers with business critical analytics applications that require the highest levels of availability and resiliency to AZ failures.
