Amazon OpenSearch Service, with the availability of OpenSearch 1.3., now gives customers the ability to organize their logs, traces and visualizations in an application-centric view. Customers can also benefit from enhanced log monitoring support with live tailing of logs, the ability to see surrounding log data, and the ability to do powerful ad-hoc analysis of unformatted log data at query time.  

Amazon CloudWatch custom metrics now supports a 50x higher capacity allowing you to send up to 1,000 metrics per call at a 3x faster default call rate and specify 3x more dimensions (up to 30) per metric. Customers rely on CloudWatch custom metrics to capture application-specific data that complements the automatic metrics provided by CloudWatch based on the AWS services you are using. With these improvements, customers can send the same volume of data with fewer API requests, leading to reduced costs.

We’re excited to announce the general availability of AWS Compute Optimizer in 5 additional regions — Asia Pacific (Osaka), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Middle East (Bahrain), Africa (Cape Town), and Europe (Milan).

Amazon Comprehend is making it easier for customers to get started with custom entity recognition by reducing the annotation requirements for training their models. Amazon Comprehend is a natural language processing (NLP) service that provides APIs to extract key phrases, contextual entities, events, and sentiment from text. Entities refer to things in your document such as people, places, organizations, credit card numbers, and so on. Custom entity recognition (CER) in Amazon Comprehend enables you to train models with entities unique to your business in just a few easy steps. You can identify almost any kind of entity, simply by providing a sufficient number of details to train your model effectively.

Amazon Lookout for Metrics uses machine learning (ML) to automatically monitor the metrics critical to your businesses with greater speed and accuracy than traditional methods used for anomaly detection. The service makes it easier to diagnose the root cause of anomalies such as unexpected dips in revenue, high rates of abandoned shopping carts, spikes in payment transaction failures, increases in new user sign-ups, and many more.

How impressive is this? An Arduino-based system that automatically solves a Rubik’s cube, usually within 1.5 to 2 seconds… It’s impressive and fast. Visual processing, non-verbal reasoning, physical dexterity… there’s a lot going on. What next? World peace, maybe? Child rearing? To be precise, an Arduino Mega 2560 board controls six NEMA 17 stepper motors …
