Amazon Translate is a neural machine translation service that delivers fast, high-quality, affordable, and customizable language translation. Today, we are announcing the general availability of real time document translation feature that allows customers to translate HTML and Text documents in real time. Until today, to translate documents in real time, customers had to extract the text, translate the text into the target language, and post-process the translated text to convert it into the original file format. With the new real time document translation feature there is no need for any pre-processing or post-processing steps. Customers can use APIs or the AWS console to submit a translation request and receive documents back with source formatting intact.

Today, Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES) announces enhancements to its dedicated IPs (managed) feature. Dedicated IPs (managed) helps customers to grow, manage and maintain their sending reputation via exclusive IP addresses without the heavy lifting associated with provisioning and managing dedicated IPs. With this release, customers can view metrics about their dedicated IPs (managed), getting greater visibility into how their dedicated IPs are performing, can create up to 50 dedicated IPs (managed) pools, and can easily convert their dedicated IP (standard) IPs into dedicated IPs (managed).

Amazon RDS (Relational Database Service) Performance Insights now provides an enhanced console experience to view performance monitoring metrics for Amazon RDS databases.

AWS Key Management Service (KMS) announced today that the hardware security modules (HSMs) used in the service were awarded Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 Security Level 3 certification from the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The FIPS 140 program validates areas related to the secure design and implementation of a cryptographic module, including the correctness of cryptographic algorithm implementations and tamper resistance/response. AWS KMS HSMs have been certified under FIPS 140-2 overall Security Level 2 continuously since 2017. This new certification gives customers assurance that all cryptographic operations involving their keys in AWS KMS happen within an HSM certified at FIPS 140-2 Security Level 3.

Developers can now use the Authenticator UI component to build end to end login/registration workflows for their Amplify powered Swift and Android projects in minutes. Moreover, the Authenticator UI component sets up the sign in and sign up workflows based on the existing auth configuration right out of the box. This UI component is built entirely using native SwiftUI and Android Jetpack Compose components, so developers can provide a user experience tailored to the Swift and Android platforms that their users feel most comfortable with.

Amazon Connect Contact Lens now provides a machine learning powered capability for businesses to help identify top contact drivers by grouping customer conversations into themes. This complements Contact Lens’ existing automated contact categorization capabilities that businesses have been using to label contacts for tracking known issues across their contact centers. With theme detection, businesses can discover previously unknown or emerging contact themes from thousands of customer interactions. Businesses can also spot common reasons for customer outreach (e.g. “cancel reservation”, “delayed order”, etc.). They can then take appropriate actions to improve customer experience by expediting issue resolution, and improving IVR options, knowledge base articles, and agent training.
