Top Announcements from AWS Reinvent 2022

I am not attending re-invent in person 😭, but I will attend it in the future.

Here are Top Announcements:

1️⃣ RDS Blue/Green Deployments At the beginning of the conference, AWS announced the general availability of RDS Blue/Green Deployments, a new feature for Aurora with MySQL compatibility, RDS for MySQL, and RDS for MariaDB to perform blue/green database updates. I love MySQL and I love RDS, this has to be on the top of my list.

2️⃣ Lambda SnapStart Lambda SnapStart is now available for Java. It has been one of the announcements better received by developers as it addresses one of the limitations of implementing serverless Java applications.

3️⃣ Aurora zero-ETL integration with Redshift Enabling near real-time analytics and machine learning, Aurora's "zero-ETL" integration with Redshift is now available in preview.

4️⃣ Amazon Security Lake

5️⃣ OpenSearch Serverless Controversially priced, OpenSearch Serverless manages the provisioning and scaling of the resources to deliver data ingestion and query responses using ElastingSearch-compatible APIs. Not everybody is convinced that naming “serverless” every autoscaling service is a good idea.
