With this launch, customers can use the ADOT collector and supported OpenTelemetry SDKs (for Java, JavaScript, .NET, and Python) to collect and send logs to Amazon CloudWatch and backends supporting OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) such as Amazon OpenSearch (AOS).

AWS CodePipeline supports starting a pipeline execution with source revision overrides

AWS CodePipeline announces the ability to start a pipeline execution with source revision overrides. Until today, a manually started pipeline execution would automatically select the “latest revision” for each source in the pipeline. The “latest revision” depended on the source action type. For example, for a CodeCommit source, the HEAD commit reference in the configured repository and branch was used, and for Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) source, the latest digest of the configured image repository and tag was used. Now, when you start a pipeline execution, you can override the source revisions for the source actions in your pipeline.

AWS Entity Resolution is now Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) eligible

AWS IoT SiteWise supports ingestion of buffered and batched measurement data

Today, we are announcing the launch of a new feature in AWS IoT SiteWise that allows cost-efficient and scalable ingestion of time-series data needed for analytical use cases. Until now, customers have used AWS IoT SiteWise streaming ingestion APIs to ingest telemetry data for real-time use cases within milliseconds. With this new feature, customers can now buffer time-series data streams at the edge before ingesting to the cloud. This lowers ingestion cost for data needed in the cloud within minutes instead of milliseconds. For example, data needed for machine learning applications and BI analytics dashboards that only need to be updated every 15 minutes. The combination of the two ingestion mechanisms allows customers to configure efficient ingestion pipelines for data needed for real-time and analytical applications.
