2022-04-05 10:28:00 ​​Kubernetes 1.22 для EKS, EKS Distro и EKS Anywhere:

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/amazon-eks-now-supports-kubernetes-1-22/

Спустя официального релиза 1.22 прошло 8 месяцев и в результате сделанный в прошлый раз прогноз на эту версию был неточен аж на четыре с половиной месяца! Что лишь подчёркивает, как много изменений в новой версии:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/kubernetes-versions.html#kubernetes-1.22

Точней уже не новой, т.к. ещё четыре месяца назад вышла 1.23.

Несмотря на такую задержку, всё же, предположу, что 1.23 появится на AWS ещё летом, поставлю на 15 августа.

Отдельно стоит отметить, что поддержка версии EKS 1.18 была совсем недавно прекращена - 31 марта.

2022-03-31 19:40:58 Reduce encryption costs by using S3 Bucket Keys on existing objects:

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/storage/reduce-encryption-costs-by-using-amazon-s3-bucket-keys-on-existing-objects/

In this blog, we’ve walked through the steps to implement S3 Bucket Keys for objects with different KMS keys within same bucket. By doing so, we were able to significantly reduce request traffic from S3 to KMS, decreasing KMS costs by 80 percent.

2022-03-31 19:37:34 The official AWS blog about closing AWS accounts using the AWS CLI or AWS SDK:

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mt/aws-organizations-now-provides-a-simple-scalable-and-more-secure-way-to-close-your-member-accounts/

You can use the AWS Organizations console, CLI or API/SDK to efficiently and more securely close the member accounts in your organization, saving you significant overhead in managing these administrative tasks while ensuring resource efficiency and overall security.

2022-03-30 11:32:17 Закрытие AWS account через AWS SDK & AWS CLI:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/organizations/latest/userguide/orgs_manage_accounts_close.html#aws-cli-&-aws-sdks

aws organizations close-account --account-id 123456789012

Не прошло и пять лет. Ан нет, прошло.

Нужно учитывать следующие особенности закрытия (на самом деле сначала приостановки - SUSPENDED) AWS аккаунтов в Organizations:

Закрыть можно любой аккаунт (member account, иногда называются как sub-account) кроме главного (management account, ранее master account).
Пока команда выполнения закрытия аккаунта находится в процессе (обычно несколько минут), аккаунт будет в состоянии PENDING_CLOSURE. По её отработке он переходит в состояние SUSPENDED, в котором будет висеть ещё три месяца, прежде, чем окончательно удалится.
Закрыть сразу все аккаунты не получится. Можно закрыть лишь 10% от общего количества в течение месяца.
Случайно закрытый нужный аккаунт можно восстановить в течение 90 дней через Support (пока аккаунт находится в состоянии SUSPENDED).

Подробности API для Organizations - CloseAccount:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/organizations/latest/APIReference/API_CloseAccount.html

Особенности закрытия аккаунтов для AWS GovCloud (US):

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/govcloud-us/latest/UserGuide/Closing-govcloud-account.html

На момент публикации документация на команду AWS CLI close-account пока ещё не доступна.

2022-03-24 23:40:55 We are excited to share that today we announced the General Availability of AWS GameKit for Unreal Engine during the Game Developers Conference (GDC). AWS GameKit is an open-source solution that allows game developers to deploy and customize cloud-connected game backend features directly from Unreal Engine. Today, we are launching four game backend features on AWS GameKit to support PC games built on Unreal Engine. These four features are - Identity and Authentication, Achievements, Game State Cloud Saving, and User Gameplay Data. AWS GameKit uses AWS CloudFormation templates to provision and connect all the necessary AWS resources together into a cohesive solution to power these features. With AWS GameKit, game developers can get started with the AWS GameKit templates and then customize and build out their backend to meet the needs of their game.

Customer Problem
Game development has two aspects, creating engaging game play experiences and building undifferentiated yet important backend game features. Game developers, while experts at game play development, don’t always have cloud expertise and have to spend months researching cloud services and writing undifferentiated code to build backend game features. While familiar with the game engine’s integrated development environment, developers still have to spend cycles learning how to integrate their backend into the engine. This slows a game developer’s ability to innovate quickly and bring new games to market.

Customer Value
AWS GameKit enables game developers to quickly build AWS-based backend game features without requiring advanced knowledge of AWS cloud services. With the AWS GameKit, game developers can build AWS-powered game features directly from the Unreal game with just a few clicks. Here are the three key customer benefits:
1. Ease of use: AWS GameKit makes it easy to build game features without requiring prior experience with core AWS services.
2. Complete customization: AWS GameKit includes the source code for the game features allowing developers to see how the AWS services work and allowing full customization.
3. Fast prototyping: AWS GameKit sample assets, including visual code and UIs for each feature, provide ready-made elements for game project integration and customization. The GameKit API and documentation make it easy to trace and debug from the engine.
