AWS Re:Invent 2022 introduced several new services that can help businesses reduce costs, improve performance, and enhance their data analysis capabilities. Here's a look at some of the latest services and how they can benefit businesses.
- Amazon S3 One Zone Infrequent Access
Amazon S3 One Zone Infrequent Access is a new storage class that provides a lower-cost option for storing data that is not frequently accessed and doesn't require high durability. This service is ideal for businesses that need to store large amounts of data but don't require it to be highly available.
To use this service, create a new S3 bucket and select "One Zone-Infrequent Access" as the storage class. Here's an example code snippet in Python:
import boto3
s3 = boto3.resource('s3')
bucket = s3.Bucket('my-bucket')
response = bucket.create(
ACL='private',
CreateBucketConfiguration={
'LocationConstraint': 'us-west-2'
},
ObjectLockEnabledForBucket=True,
StorageClass='ONEZONE_IA'
)
print(response)
- Amazon Elastic Inference for Amazon ECS
Amazon Elastic Inference for Amazon ECS is a new service that provides GPU acceleration for containerized applications. This service can help businesses improve their application's performance without the need for additional infrastructure.
To use this service, add the Amazon Elastic Inference task definition parameter to your existing ECS task definition. Here's an example JSON snippet:
{
"ipcMode": null,
"executionRoleArn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/ecsTaskExecutionRole",
"containerDefinitions": [
{
"name": "my-container",
"image": "my-image",
"portMappings": [
{
"containerPort": 80,
"hostPort": 80
}
],
"cpu": 256,
"memory": 512,
"elasticInferenceAccelerators": [
{
"deviceName": "elastic-inference-1",
"deviceType": "eia1.medium"
}
]
}
],
"memory": "512",
"taskRoleArn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/ecsTaskExecutionRole",
"family": "my-task-family"
}
- Amazon QuickSight Q
Amazon QuickSight Q is a new service that uses natural language querying to help users find insights and answers from their data. This service can help businesses improve their data analysis and decision-making capabilities.
To use this service, log in to the QuickSight console and select "New analysis." Then, select "QuickSight Q" as the data source and enter your natural language query. Here's an example:
Show me sales by product category
- Amazon RDS Proxy
Amazon RDS Proxy is a new service that allows businesses to improve the scalability and performance of their database workloads. This service enables applications to use connection pooling to manage connections to their databases, reducing the overhead associated with establishing new connections.
To use this service, create a new proxy endpoint for your database and configure your application to use the proxy endpoint. Here's an example code snippet in Node.js:
const AWS = require('aws-sdk');
const rdsDataService = new AWS.RDSDataService();
const endpoint = 'my-database-proxy.endpoint.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com';
const database = 'my-database';
const user = 'my-user';
const password = 'my-password';
const params = {
resourceArn: `arn:aws:rds:${process.env.AWS_REGION}:${process.env.AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}:cluster:${process.env.DB_CLUSTER_IDENTIFIER}`,
secretArn: `arn:aws:secretsmanager:${process.env.AWS_REGION}:${process.env.AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}:secret:${process.env.DB_SECRET_NAME}`,
sql: `SELECT * FROM my_table`,
database,
};
const executeStatement = async () => {
const results = await rdsDataService.executeStatement(params).promise();
console.log(results);
};
executeStatement();
- AWS Security Hub
AWS Security Hub is a new service that provides a centralized view of security alerts and compliance status across AWS accounts. This service can help businesses improve their security posture and simplify compliance reporting.
To use this service, enable Security Hub in your AWS account and configure your AWS resources to send security and compliance data to Security Hub. Here's an example code snippet in Python:
import boto3
securityhub = boto3.client('securityhub')
response = securityhub.batch_import_findings(
Findings=[
