Final week’s launches
Listed here are some launches that bought my consideration in the course of the earlier week.

Amazon S3 now helps conditional writes – We’ve added help for conditional writes in Amazon S3 which test for existence of an object earlier than creating it. With this characteristic, now you can simplify how distributed functions with a number of shoppers concurrently replace knowledge in parallel throughout shared datasets. Every consumer can conditionally write objects, ensuring that it doesn’t overwrite any objects already written by one other consumer.

AWS Lambda introduces recursive loop detection APIs – With the recursive loop detection APIs now you can set recursive loop detection configuration on particular person AWS Lambda capabilities. This lets you flip off recursive loop detection on capabilities that deliberately use recursive patterns, avoiding disruption of those workloads. Utilizing these APIs, you’ll be able to keep away from disruption to any deliberately recursive workflows as Lambda expands help of recursive loop detection to different AWS companies. Configure recursive loop detection for Lambda capabilities by means of the Lambda Console, the AWS command line interface (CLI), or Infrastructure as Code instruments like AWS CloudFormation, AWS Serverless Utility Mannequin (AWS SAM), or AWS Cloud Improvement Package (CDK). This new configuration possibility is supported in AWS SAM CLI model 1.123.0 and CDK v2.153.0.

Basic availability of Amazon Bedrock batch inference API – Now you can use Amazon Bedrock to course of prompts in batch to get responses for mannequin analysis, experimentation, and offline processing. Utilizing the batch API makes it extra environment friendly to run inference with basis fashions (FMs). It additionally permits you to mixture responses and analyze them in batches. To get began, go to Run batch inference.
