The next generation of Amazon Aurora Serverless is currently considerably simpler for users to abandon the requirements of privileged databases and enjoy the massive expense reserve funds of the versatile, on-request limit with every one of the high-level capabilities in Amazon Aurora." There are no direct commitments or extra expenses to utilize Amazon Aurora Serverless v2, and users compensate for the database limit. For the most part, Amazon Aurora Serverless v2 is accessible today for MySQL and PostgreSQL-compatible versions of Amazon Aurora.
Amazon sent off a three-dimensional web-based role-playing game where players travel through a virtual city, assisting individuals with tackling genuine innovation issues and cloud use cases, determined to construct AWS cloud abilities, and planning for the AWS Certified Cloud Expert Test.
It was designed by AWS this year to assist individuals with becoming AWS cloud specialists by solving cloud business use cases in the game as Amazon keeps on investing hundreds of millions in providing free cloud computing training. AWS Cloud Quest and AWS Educate intentionally move away from passive content to make abstract cloud computing concepts real through interactive and hands-on activities that immediately let learners turn theory into practice.
To win "AWS Cloud Quest", players must finish quests to assist the virtual citizens in building a superior city, which will fabricate an individual's genuine distributed computing abilities. Players learn and fabricate cloud solutions by exploring core AWS services and categories, such as storage capacity, database, and security administrations. Such gameplay includes quizzes, videos, and active exercises based on real-world business scenarios.
In May 2022, AWS launched the general availability of its Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) C7g instances powered by AWS-designed Graviton3 processors. For better performance, AWS' new C7g instances use AWS Graviton3 processors to provide up to 20-25% compute-intensive apps than current generation C6g instances powered by AWS Graviton2 processors.
The higher & better performance of C7g cases makes it feasible for customers to run various compute-intensive workloads. Workloads like web servers, load balancers, and batch processing to Electronic Design Automation (EDA), superior computing, gaming, video encoding, machine learning inference, and ad serving are feasible for customers.
Note: There are no minimum commitments or up-front expenses to utilize C7g instances, and customers pay only for the amount of computing used.
AWS Mainframe Modernization is another new service launched in June. It's primarily aimed at making it faster and easier for customers to modernize workloads by moving them to the AWS cloud. AWS Centralized Server Modernization is another help toward making it quicker and more straightforward for clients to update centralized computer-based jobs by forcing them to the AWS cloud.
With AWS Mainframe Modernization, user can refactor their mainframe workloads to run on AWS by transforming mainframe-based apps into modern cloud services. Users can keep their apps as written and re-platform their workloads to AWS by reusing existing code with insignificant changes. AWS said a managed runtime climate incorporated into AWS Mainframe Modernization provides the essential register, memory, and storage capacity to run both refactored and re-platformed apps.
The AWS Mainframe Modernization service likewise provides the development, testing, and deployment tools necessary to automate the modernization of mainframe apps to run on AWS. There are no up-front costs, and customers only pay for the amount of computing provisioned.
AWS' new tool, i.e., Spark for Public Sector Partners Program, launched in June 2022. It provides various training and resources for partners to build on top of AWS solutions to solve common customer problems in the public sector. The channel can access new and developing solutions through this program, promotion on AWS solution pages, and go-to-market support such as joint planning, MDF, and sales support.
"Partners can use these assets to speed up proofs of concept and customer deployment because customers' perspectives have changed because of COVID. Jeff Kratz, GM of AWS', said that. "We're seeing governments that act like startups in so many different ways, and they want things now. They want to move with speed."
