AWS Glue DataBrew now supports the ability to write datasets created from jobs that run your data preparation recipes directly to the AWS Glue Data Catalog. You can choose to store datasets in Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon RDS (Aurora, Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, and PostgreSQL) tables in the Data Catalog.

With this launch, AWS Amplify now supports conditional backend builds, automatic build-time aws-exports.js generation, and a simpler console workflow to re-use backends across multiple frontend branches. AWS Amplify’s continuous deployment service offers frontend developers the fastest way to build and deploy full-stack apps (both the frontend and backend) on every code commit.

We are excited to announce that Kendra Enterprise Edition is now offered in smaller more granular units to enable smaller workloads. The base Kendra Enterprise Edition (KEE) now starts at $1.40/h ($1,008/mo), offering the same functionality and availability at a smaller scale and cost. The base KEE now supports up to 100,000 documents and 8,000 searches per day, with adaptive bursting capability to better handle unpredictable query spikes. Similarly, the Virtual Storage Capacity units now offer scaling in increments of 100,000 documents (up to 30GB) per unit at $0.7/h. Our Virtual Query Units offer scaling increments of 8,000 queries per day at $0.7/h.

Here’s a future we don’t want – getting sacked by a computer. It turns out that Amazon has a delivery service called Flex which rates drivers either fantastic, great, fair or at risk.
