a few notable, new @awscloud announcements so far today from #reinvent

👇

#reinvent

aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-…

/2 #reinvent
GAME CHANGER*: @awscloud Config _finally_ allows for proactive rules that can be run BEFORE spinning something up to catch issues

* changes the game in that we can all remove a bunch of Lambda/EventBridge stuff now

aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-…

/3 #reinvent
@awscloud Glue increments it's inexplicable version number to 4.0, brining a bunch of new features & data formats along with it

headline should've been:

"AWS Glue out of the blue with features new to you"

aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-…

/4 #reinvent
@awscloud Wickr finally launches after the acquisition in 2021

e2e enterprise messaging feels like a better fit than the consumer facing version that is being retired

aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-…

/5 #reinvent
AWS Control Tower launches a preview of comprehensive controls management

honestly, there's so much stuff in Control Tower, I get lost trying to sort it all out

tl:dr: it's got more stuff now. use it to help keep your accounts standardized

aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-…

/6 #reinvent
@awsmarketplace for Containers can now deploy directly into an @awscloud EKS Cluster

most ppl assumed this was possible (if they knew the marketplace existed) already. it wasn't

it is now. I consider this a fix, not a launch

aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-…

/7 #reinvent
not often you see a solution get prominent billing, but here's a cool one.

aws.amazon.com/blogs/machine-…

the @awscloud Glue team continues to deliver some great features. you can now launch @raydistributed jobs from the service

still 🤦 that the team continues to miss amazing headline opportunities...

aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data…

/9 #reinvent
last one to call out for now

@awscloud RDS gets blue/green deployments for Aurora with MySQL, RDS for MySQl, and RDS for MariaDB

a couple clicks to safely deploy changes? yes, please

a nice move by @googlecloud recently. they've cleaned up the already great developer experience

the moves are summed up in this post cloud.google.com/blog/products/…

some thoughts 👇

🧵 #cloud #devops
@googlecloud these changes are non-breaking. that SHOULD be the standard when dealing with APIs and SDKs but, sadly, it isn't everywhere

nice to see @googlecloud setting an example here

🧵 #cloud #devops
@googlecloud all of the individual CLIs are now the "Google Cloud CLI"

this is an umbrella project that includes:

- gcloud (pretty much everything)
- bg (BigQuery)
- gsutil (Cloud Storage)
- kubectl (Kubernetes)

before I dive in here, did you know that @awscloud Audit Manager exists?

probably not. tl:dr > it helps map your usage to various regulations & standards to give you a better idea of your risk & compliance posture

some thoughts & a blog post analysis 👇

🧵 #cloud #security
@awscloud this 👇 is the workflow for @awscloud Audit Manager. it's not bad for the basics

🧵 #cloud #security The AWS Audit Manager workflow: - review, customize, or crea
@awscloud what started me down this path was this post on the @awssecurityinfo blog, "Streamlining evidence collection with AWS Audit Manager"

aws.amazon.com/blogs/security…

anything that helps smooth out the evidence gathering process is usually a big win, let's dig in

on the @awscloud Cloud Operations & Migrations blog, @MahanthJayadeva has a great post up about Custom Lenses in teh AWS Well-Architected Framework

read that at aws.amazon.com/blogs/mt/custo…

some thoughts 👇

🧵 #cloud #devops
@awscloud @MahanthJayadeva Custom Lenses add your own questions to the AWS Well-Architected Tool

remember, the Tool is basically a managed, versioned Q&A system to help your teams work through various architectural chocies

a Custom Lens means your questions appear alongside AWS'

🧵 #cloud #devops
@awscloud @MahanthJayadeva the Custom Lens go a bit further than just questions. you can actually create your own PILLARS as well

there are 6 pillars from @awscloud:
- Operational Excellence
- Performance Efficiency
- Reliability
- Cost Optimization
- Security
- Sustainability
