7/6/2026, 12:00:00 AM ~ 7/7/2026, 12:00:00 AM (UTC) Recent Announcements Amazon SageMaker HyperPod now supports disaggregated prefill and decode Amazon SageMaker HyperPod now supports Disaggregated Prefill and Decode (DPD), an inference optimization that separates the two phases of large language model (LLM) inference — prefill and decode — onto dedicated GPU pools and transfers the key-value (KV) cache between them over Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) using GPU-Direct RDMA. Customers running LLMs in production for chat assistants, agentic pipelines, retrieval-augmented generation, and long-document analysis need consistent per-token latency and predictable throughput under mixed traffic, but when prefill and decode share the same GPU, a single long-context request can stall token generation for every concurrent request and force customers to over-provision one phase to protect the other....

6/1/2026, 12:00:00 AM ~ 6/2/2026, 12:00:00 AM (UTC) Recent Announcements Quick Research now supports customer managed keys Amazon Quick Research now enables customers to encrypt their data using customer-managed keys (CMK) through AWS Key Management Service (KMS).\n This enhancement allows organizations with strict security and compliance requirements to manage their own encryption keys. With customer-managed keys, you gain enhanced security control and comprehensive audit capabilities through AWS CloudTrail integration. You can encrypt your data with your own KMS keys, trace all data access for security auditing, and revoke access to compromised keys within 15 minutes during security incidents....
