04:53- Announcing Validation API for AWS Step Functions
The new validation API for AWS Step Functions allows validating state machines before deployment to catch errors early. It was noted this could be useful to integrate into CI/CD pipelines.
09:19 - Why You Should Use AWS Lambda Layers
Using Lambda layers allows packaging dependencies separately from function code. This enables faster deployments when only code changes, limits package size so the console editor can still be used, and allows sharing dependencies between functions
16:51 - Deploy AWS Systems Manager Quick Setup programmatically across your AWS Organization
AWS Systems Manager Quick Setup can now be deployed programmatically via CloudFormation, CDK, CLI etc. This makes it easier to enable SSM access across an organization or onboard new accounts.
23:35 - New courses and certification updates from AWS Training and Certification in August 2024
New AWS certifications and courses were announced, including AI/ML related ones like Certified Machine Learning Engineer Associate. This reflects the growing demand for cloud skills in these areas.
30:37 - AWS named as a Challenger in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Observability Platforms
AWS was named a Challenger in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Observability, reflecting their improved capabilities and execution in this space even if not yet a leader.
