Amazon CloudFront now offers three additional data fields in CloudFront real-time logs: Origin first-byte latency, Origin last-byte latency, and autonomous system number (ASN). CloudFront real-time logs contain detailed information about requests delivered by CloudFront such as the HTTP status codes of the response, or whether the response was cached. With the three new data fields, customers can get more granular insights on CloudFront performance while analyzing real-time logs, or in the dashboards created using the logs. The Origin first-byte latency provides the time taken in seconds by the origin server to respond back with the first byte of the response. The Origin last-byte latency indicates the time taken in seconds by the origin server to respond back with the last byte of the response. ASN is a unique number that identifies the network, such as an internet service provider (ISP) network, that provides the viewer IP address.

IAM Identity Center adds session management features for improved user experience and cloud security
Using AWS IAM Identity Center (successor to AWS Single Sign-On), you now have more control over user session management. You can use the console to set customized session lengths (up to 7 days), based on your organization’s security requirements and desired end-user experience. With this feature, you can also terminate sessions, enabling you to manage sessions that are no longer needed or potentially suspicious.
Amazon DevOps Guru now provides list view for resources analyzed
You can now view and filter the list of resources analyzed by Amazon DevOps Guru within the DevOps Guru console. You can view the list of resources on the ‘Analyzed resources’ page and sort and filter by resource name, DevOps Guru tag name (or tag value), CloudFormation stack name, or AWS Service name. You can optionally download the list via CSV file which also includes the Amazon Resource Names (ARN).
Amazon Braket now supports pulse-level access to study the performance of today’s quantum computers
Amazon Braket, the quantum computing service from AWS, aims to accelerate research and software development in quantum computing. Today, we are adding support for pulse-level access to superconducting quantum processors from Rigetti Computing and Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC) by launching Braket Pulse, a new feature for running pulse-level quantum programs. With this launch, Braket customers have more choice and can dive deeper in their research with the option to code their quantum programs using gates, pulses, or a combination of both.

32kHz oscillator for auto
SiTime has introduced a 32 kHz oscillator family that provides accurate time keeping for ADAS, infotainment, instrument clusters and ECUs. To conserve power, electronic subsystems need to be turned on and off frequently and accurately. Since the 32 kHz oscillator (XO) is the time keeping element, and is always-on, its accuracy and power consumption play …
