Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) now supports Amazon ECS Exec for workloads running on Windows operating systems. Amazon ECS Exec, launched in March 2021, makes it easier for customers to troubleshoot errors, collect diagnostic information, interact with processes in containers during development, or get “break-glass” access to containers to debug critical issues encountered in production.

AWS Glue DataBrew now has native console integration with Amazon AppFlow, allowing users to connect to data from Salesforce, Zendesk, Slack, ServiceNow, and other Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, as well as AWS services like Amazon S3 and Amazon Redshift. When creating a new dataset in DataBrew, you can now create a flow via Amazon AppFlow that loads data (by schedule, event, or on-demand) into Amazon S3. Once the flow has been established to Amazon S3, you can easily clean, normalize, and transform this data in DataBrew and join it with datasets from other data stores or SaaS applications. DataBrew also provides information about when your flow was last refreshed and allows you to trigger flows directly from the DataBrew console. Learn more about supported AppFlow sources and destinations here .

AWS Glue DataBrew now provides customers the ability to mask Personally Identifiable Information (PII) data during data preparation. With just a few clicks, you can detect PII data as part of a data profiling job and gather statistics such as number of columns that may contain PII and potential categories, then use built-in data masking transformations including substitution, hashing, encryption, decryption, and more, all without writing any code. You can then use the cleaned and masked datasets downstream for analytics, reporting, and machine learning tasks. 

AWS Glue DataBrew customers are now able to create datasets by writing Structured Query Language (SQL) statements to retrieve data from Amazon Redshift and Snowflake using Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) connections. You can use a purpose-built query to select the data you want and limit the data returned from large tables before cleaning, normalizing, and transforming that data with DataBrew. For a list of supported input formats, please see the AWS Glue DataBrew input formats list .

AWS Glue DataBrew users can now create data quality rules, which are customizable validation checks that define business requirements for specific data. You can create rules to check for duplicate values in certain columns, validate that one column does not match another, or define many more custom checks and conditions based on your specific data quality use cases. You can group rules for a given dataset into a ruleset for efficiency and apply these checks as part of a standard data profile job. Results are populated in a data quality dashboard and validation report, helping you to quickly view rule outcomes and determine whether your data is fit for use.

Contact Lens for Amazon Connect has now been included on the list of AWS Services in Scope for the FedRAMP Moderate baseline. The security and compliance of Contact Lens is assessed as part of multiple AWS compliance programs. Contact Lens is compliant with PCI and SOC, while also being a HIPAA eligible service. For a list of AWS services in scope of specific compliance programs, see AWS Services in Scope by Compliance Program. For general information, see AWS Compliance Programs.

Today the EC is discussing its chip plans. According to a draft of a policy paper seen by Bloomberg, the EC “may envisage approving public support to fill possible funding gaps in the semiconductor ecosystem for the establishment in particular of European first-of-a-kind facilities.” First-of-a-kind facilities are thought to mean bleeding edge fabs which rules …
