Starting today, you can use E-RTMP (Enhanced Real-Time Messaging Protocol) multitrack video to send multiple video qualities to your Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) stages. This feature enables adaptive bitrate streaming, allowing viewers to watch in the best quality for their network connection. Multitrack video is supported in OBS Studio and complements the existing simulcast capabilities in the IVS broadcast SDK. There is no additional cost for using multitrack video with Real-Time Streaming.

Amazon IVS is a managed live streaming solution designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world. Visit the AWS region table for a full list of AWS Regions where the Amazon IVS console and APIs for control and creation of video streams are available.

To learn more, please visit the Amazon IVS RTMP ingest documentation page.
 

AWS Lambda now provides native support for Avro and Protobuf formatted Kafka events with Apache Kafka’s event-source-mapping (ESM), and integrates with AWS Glue Schema registry (GSR), Confluent Cloud Schema registry (CCSR), and self-managed Confluent Schema registry (SCSR) for schema management. This enables you to validate your schema, filter events, and process events using open-source Kafka consumer interfaces. Additionally, customers can use Powertools for AWS Lambda to process their Kafka events without writing custom deserialization code, making it easier to build their Kafka applications with AWS Lambda.

Kafka customers use Avro and Protobuf formats for efficient data storage, fast serialization and deserialization, schema evolution support, and interoperability between different programming languages. They utilize schema registry to manage, evolve, and validate schemas before data enters processing pipelines. Previously, customers were required to write custom code within their Lambda function, in order to validate, de-serialize, and filter events when using these data formats. With today’s launch, Lambda natively supports Avro and Protobuf as well as integration with GSR, CCSR and SCSR, enabling customers to process their Kafka events using these data formats, without writing custom code. Additionally, customers can optimize costs through event filtering to prevent unnecessary function invocations.

This feature is generally available in all AWS Commercial Regions where AWS Lambda Kafka ESM is available, except Israel (Tel Aviv), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), and Canada West (Calgary).

To get started, provide your schema registry configuration for your new or existing Kafka ESM in the ESM API, AWS Console, AWS CLI, AWS SDK, AWS CloudFormation, and AWS SAM. Optionally, you can setup filtering rules to discard irrelevant Avro or Protobuf formatted events before function invocations. To build your function with Kafka’s open-source ConsumerRecords interface, add Powertools for AWS Lambda as a dependency within your Lambda function. To learn more, read Lambda ESM documentation and AWS Lambda pricing .
 

AWS License Manager now supports license type conversions for AWS Marketplace products, initially for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and RHEL for SAP products. Using AWS License Manager, Amazon EC2 customers can now switch Red Hat subscriptions between AWS-provided and Red Hat-provided options from AWS Marketplace without re-deploying instances.

License conversion empowers customers to optimize their licensing strategy by seamlessly transitioning between different subscription models, whether purchased directly through EC2 or from the vendor in AWS Marketplace. Utilizing the license type conversion process, customers are now no longer required to re-deploy instances when switching licenses, reducing downtime and IT operational overhead. By switching their license, customers can negotiate custom pricing directly with vendors and transact through private offers in AWS Marketplace. This new flexibility allows customers to consolidate their vendor spend in AWS Marketplace and maintain preferred vendor relationships for support.

License type conversion for select AWS Marketplace products is available in all AWS Commercial and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions where AWS Marketplace is available.

To get started, customers can configure Linux subscriptions discovery through the AWS License Manager console, AWS CLI, or License Manager Linux subscription API, and create a license type conversion. For more information and to begin using this capability, visit the AWS License Manager page or AWS Marketplace Buyer Guide .
