Integrating Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion with Amazon RDS and Amazon Aurora

We are happy to announce the general availability of the integration of Amazon OpenSearch Service with Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) and Amazon Aurora. This new integration eliminates complex data pipelines and enables near real-time data synchronization between Amazon Aurora (including Amazon Aurora MySQL-Compatible Edition and Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition) and Amazon RDS databases (including Amazon RDS for MySQL and Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL), and Amazon OpenSearch Service, unlocking advanced search capabilities such as hybrid search, ranked results, and faceted search on transactional databases.

Orchestrate data processing jobs, querybooks, and notebooks using visual workflow experience in Amazon SageMaker

Today, we are excited to launch a new visual workflows builder in SageMaker Unified Studio. With the new visual workflow experience, you don’t need to code the Python DAGs manually. Instead, you can visually define the orchestration workflow in SageMaker Unified Studio, and the visual definition is automatically converted to a Python DAG definition that is supported in Airflow.This post demonstrates the new visual workflow experience in SageMaker Unified Studio.

Near real-time baggage operational insights for airlines using Amazon Kinesis Data Streams

This post explores a framework developed by IBM to modernize baggage analytics using AWS managed services like Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, DynamoDB Streams, and other AWS services within a serverless architecture. The solution enables near real-time baggage operational insights for airlines, delivering cost savings, enhanced scalability, and improved performance while providing better security and operational efficiency to meet evolving airline needs.

Overcome your Kafka Connect challenges with Amazon Data Firehose

We’re happy to announce a new feature in the Amazon Data Firehose integration with Amazon MSK. You can now specify the Firehose stream to either read from the earliest position on the Kafka topic or from a custom timestamp to begin reading from your MSK topic. In this post of this series, we focus on managed data delivery from Kafka to your data lake.

Enhance data ingestion performance in Amazon Redshift with concurrent inserts

Amazon Redshift employs columnar storage for database tables, reducing overall disk I/O requirements. This storage method significantly improves analytic query performance by minimizing data read during queries. This post showcases the key improvements in Amazon Redshift concurrent data ingestion operations.

Amazon OpenSearch Service 101: Create your first search application with OpenSearch

In this post, we walk you through a search application building process using Amazon OpenSearch Service. Whether you’re a developer new to search or looking to understand OpenSearch fundamentals, this hands-on post shows you how to build a search application from scratch—starting with the initial setup; diving into core components such as indexing, querying, result presentation; and culminating in the execution of your first search query.

Implement secure hybrid and multicloud log ingestion with Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion

In this post, we demonstrate how to configure Fluent Bit, a fast and flexible log processor and router supported by various operating systems, to securely send logs from any environment to OpenSearch Ingestion using IAM Roles Anywhere.

Secure access to a cross-account Amazon MSK cluster from Amazon MSK Connect using IAM authentication

In this post, we demonstrate a use case where you might need to use an MSK cluster in one AWS account, but MSK Connect is located in a separate account. We demonstrate how to implement IAM authentication after establishing network connectivity. IAM provides enhanced security measures, making sure your systems are protected against unauthorized access.
