AWS Glue Studio now allows you to preview your data at each step of the visual job authoring process. AWS Glue Studio automatically samples your data, then runs each transform in your job so you can test and debug your transformations without having to save or run the job. Data previews are available for each source, target, and transform node in the visual editor, so you can verify the results step by step.

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) managed node groups now supports upgrading multiple nodes in parallel.

AWS Elemental MediaPackage now supports timed ID3 metadata passthrough for live and VOD streams in HLS, CMAF, and DASH formats. ID3 metadata tags enable data to be embedded into video streams at specified timecodes and used by downstream systems or clients to enhance the playback experience. By dynamically adding metadata to a stream, you can enable use cases such as ad-insertion beaconing, client-side dynamic graphical overlays, content chapters, and audio track listing.

Amazon Redshift RA3 is now available in the Asia Pacific (Hong Kong) Region, China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet, and China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD. Amazon Redshift RA3 instances with managed storage allow you to scale compute and storage independently for fast query performance and lower costs and also enable you to securely and easily share live data across Amazon Redshift clusters. RA3 is available in three different node types, RA3.16xlarge, RA3.4xlarge, and RA3.xlplus to allow you to balance price and performance depending upon your workload requirements.
