AWS Shield Advanced announces distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack flow logs, giving you packet-level visibility into traffic hitting Shield Advanced protected resources during a DDoS attack. The log data is published to Amazon S3, Amazon CloudWatch Logs, or Amazon Data Firehose, for forensic analysis and compliance purposes. The DDoS attack flow logs, capture critical packet-level details, including source and destination IP addresses, ports, protocols, packet and byte counts, source country information, and others. The log data is automatically published to your chosen destination at 5-minute intervals during active attacks. Once published, you can retrieve and analyze your flow log data using your preferred analytics tools, enabling post-incident investigation, threat intelligence gathering, and compliance reporting. To enable flow logs, you must protect the resources with Shield Advanced, and configure log delivery based on your destination. The feature is avaialble in all regions where AWS Shield Advanced is available. To learn more about configuring and using DDoS attack flow logs, visit the AWS Shield Advanced documentation.

In this post, we explore how Buildkite uses Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) and Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink to power Test Engine’s streaming-first analytics architecture at scale.

In this post, we walk through how Zynga adopted Amazon Redshift federated permissions and AWS IAM Identity Center to enforce consistent, tiered data access across provisioned and serverless Amazon Redshift environments without building custom synchronization pipelines.

In this post, we demonstrate the capabilities of AgentWatch through practical implementation. You will see how the solution performs infrastructure checks every 15 minutes, summarizing CloudWatch metrics, logs, and alarms across multiple AWS accounts. The agent delivers actionable reports directly to Slack and responds to natural language queries about your infrastructure state. Throughout, we explore three human-in-the-loop patterns that maintain appropriate oversight while maximizing automation.

As data volumes grow from terabytes to petabytes, the architecture for generating synthetic data must evolve to meet increasing demands for scale, performance, and data quality. In this post, we show how you can build a scalable synthetic data generation solution using Amazon EMR, Apache Spark, and the Faker library.

Today, we’re launching OpenSearch Agent Skills, a repository of open, composable skills that bring built-in intelligence to developer workflows with OpenSearch, directly inside your favorite agentic IDE. By embedding OpenSearch expertise into the developer’s existing workflow, Agent Skills reduce setup time, eliminate unnecessary tool-hopping, and let teams focus on building rather than configuring.

In this post, you learn how Smartsheet built a Real-time Dynamic Filtering (RDF) system on Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink, cutting messaging costs by over $40,000 per month and improving live collaboration latency by 1.8x.

In this post, we demonstrate an approach we used to address this challenge for a customer by implementing an AWS Lambda transformation function that streams Amazon CloudWatch metrics directly to internal OpenTelemetry collectors running within a VPC.

In this post, we explore how Deloitte used Amazon EKS and vCluster to transform their testing infrastructure.

This post explores how PACIFIC enables multi-tenant, sovereign PCF exchange on the Catena-X data space using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) on AWS Fargate, Amazon Cognito, and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) to deliver measurable environmental impact and competitive advantage in a carbon-conscious marketplace.

In this post, you will learn how to configure AWS Lambda Managed Instances by creating a Capacity Provider that defines your compute infrastructure, associating your Lambda function with that provider, and publishing a function version to provision the execution environments. We will conclude with production best practices including scaling strategies, thread safety, and observability for reliable performance.

In this post, we look at how Generali is using Amazon EKS Auto Mode and its integration with other AWS services to enhance performance while reducing operational overhead, optimizing costs, and enhancing security.

This post walks through a fraud detection system built with durable functions. It also highlights the best practices that you can apply to your own production workflows, from approval processes to data pipelines to AI agent orchestration.

In this post, you'll learn how AWS DevOps Agent integrates with your existing observability stack to provide intelligent, automated responses to system events.

In alignment with our V4.0 GA announcement and SDKs and Tools Maintenance Policy, version 3 of the AWS SDK for .NET will enter maintenance mode on March 1, 2026, and reach end-of-support on June 1, 2026. Starting March 1, 2026 we will stop adding regular updates to V3 and will only provide security updates until end-of-support begins.

In this post, you'll learn how to add the Apache 5 HTTP client to your project, configure it for your needs, and migrate from the 4.5.x version.

Santander faced a significant technical challenge in managing an infrastructure that processes billions of daily transactions across more than 200 critical systems. The solution emerged through an innovative platform engineering initiative called Catalyst, which transformed the bank's cloud infrastructure and development management. This post analyzes the main cases, benefits, and results obtained with this initiative.

This blog post shows you how to extend LZA with continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines that maintain your governance controls and accelerate workload deployments, offering rapid deployment of both Terraform and AWS CloudFormation across multiple accounts. You'll build automated infrastructure deployment workflows that run in parallel with LZA's baseline orchestration to help maintain your enterprise governance and compliance control requirements. You will implement built-in validation, security scanning, and cross-account deployment capabilities to help address Public Sector use cases that demand strict compliance and security requirements.

Business applications often coordinate multiple steps that need to run reliably or wait for extended periods, such as customer onboarding, payment processing, or orchestrating large language model inference. These critical processes require completion despite temporary disruptions or system failures. Developers currently spend significant time implementing mechanisms to track progress, handle failures, and manage resources when […]

This post is about AWS SDK for JavaScript v3 announcing end of support for Node.js versions based on Node.js release schedule, and it is not about AWS Lambda. For the latter, refer to the Lambda runtime deprecation policy. In the second week of January 2026, the AWS SDK for JavaScript v3 (JS SDK) will start […]
