The Amazon EC2 Container Service (ECS) RunTask and StartTask APIs now support three additional parameters in task definitions: cpu, memory, and memoryReservation. These additional override parameters make it easier to manage containers through the ECS API.
AWS Batch is Now Available in Sydney, London, Frankfurt, and Columbus
AWS Batch enables developers, scientists, and engineers to easily and efficiently run hundreds of thousands of batch computing jobs on AWS. AWS Batch dynamically provisions the optimal quantity and type of compute resources (e.g., CPU or memory optimized instances) based on the volume and resource requirements of jobs submitted to job queues. With AWS Batch, there is no need to install and manage batch computing software or server clusters, allowing you to instead focus on analyzing results and solving problems. AWS Batch plans, schedules, and executes your batch computing workloads which run on Amazon EC2 and Spot Instances.
AWS CloudTrail Adds Amazon CloudWatch Events to the API Activity History
AWS CloudTrail, a service that continuously monitors and logs your AWS account activity, now allows Amazon CloudWatch Events APIs to be viewed in the CloudTrail console API Activity History page. Previously, CloudWatch Events API actions were available in the S3 bucket log files. Now, you can look up these actions using the API Activity History page, CLI, or the CloudTrail API. This launch also includes additional APIs for the API Activity History page for Amazon EC2, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Cognito, Amazon Kinesis, AWS CloudHSM, and AWS Storage Gateway. You can use the API Activity History page to search for create, modify, and delete event activity from these services using a set of predefined filters. For read-only API activity, go to your Amazon S3 bucket or Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Please visit AWS CloudTrail product page for more information.
