Recent Announcements
Amazon Redshift announces support for the INTERVAL data type that allows you to specify periods or ranges of time, such as 12 hours, 6 weeks, or 1 month. Additionally, Redshift now supports Continue Handlers that allow you to better control the execution flow inside stored procedures. This new exception handler enables applications to handle exceptions inside a stored procedure more gracefully to simplify the programming model.

Announcing libraries and tools for Open Job Description
Today, AWS released new tools for the Open Job Description (OpenJD) specification for describing portable render jobs. This update includes a set of three Python libraries and tools packages: openjd-cli, openjd-model, and openjd-sessions. The openjd-cli package provides a command-line tool that you can use to develop and run OpenJD jobs on your own workstation or render farm. The openjd-model and openjd-sessions packages provide functionality that you can use to integrate OpenJD into your own render farm and pipeline software. These libraries and tools packages are provided under the Apache 2.0 license and available on GitHub and the PyPI package manager for Python.
Amazon GuardDuty Runtime Monitoring protects clusters running in shared VPC
Amazon GuardDuty Runtime Monitoring, which detects potential runtime-based threats, now protects workloads running in shared virtual private cloud (VPCs) across all supported compute services. VPC sharing allows multiple AWS accounts to create their application resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances, into shared, centrally-managed VPCs. Customers use shared VPCs to simplify network management across different accounts in the organization, providing cost benefits and reduced operational overhead with fewer VPCs to manage. GuardDuty Runtime Monitoring uses a VPC endpoint to securely send the agent telemetry to the GuardDuty backend for processing and detecting threats. With GuardDuty Runtime Monitoring, customers can automatically manage the security agent—including the creation of the VPC endpoint and installing, deploying, and updating the agent—at no extra cost. With this launch, customers who are already opted into automated agent management in GuardDuty will benefit from a renewed 30-day trial of GuardDuty Runtime Monitoring where we will automatically start monitoring the resources (clusters) deployed in shared VPC setup. Customers also have the option to manually manage the agent and provision the VPC endpoint in their shared VPC environment.

Amazon EMR on EC2 now supports retrieval of 10,000 steps completed within last 7 days
Today, Amazon EMR on EC2 announced an enhancement to the DescribeStep and ListStep API to allow customers to view up to 10,000 completed steps within the last 7 days, an increase from the previous limit of 1,000 steps. The service will also continue supporting the retrieval of 1,000 steps from the past two months. These API improvements provide greater visibility into completed steps and makes it easier for you to monitor and manage your steps workflow.
