AWS Backup expands support for Amazon DocumentDB to 12 Regions

AWS Backup now supports Amazon DocumentDB in 12 additional AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Malaysia, Thailand, Osaka, Hong Kong, Jakarta, Melbourne), Europe (Stockholm, Spain, Zurich), Africa (Cape Town), Israel (Tel Aviv), and Mexico (Central).
This expansion brings policy-based data protection and recovery to your Amazon DocumentDB clusters in these newly supported Regions.
To start protecting your DocumentDB clusters with AWS Backup, add your DocumentDB clusters to your existing backup plans, or create a new backup plan and attach your DocumentDB clusters to it. To learn more about AWS Backup for Amazon DocumentDB, visit the product page, pricing page, and documentation. To get started, visit the AWS Backup console, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or AWS SDKs.

Amazon EC2 I7ie instances now available in additional AWS regions

AWS is announcing starting today, Amazon EC2 I7ie instances are now available in AWS Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Melbourne), Asia Pacific (Thailand), Europe (Zurich), Europe (Milan) and Mexico (Central) regions. Designed for large storage I/O intensive workloads, I7ie instances are powered by 5th Gen Intel Xeon Processors with an all-core turbo frequency of 3.2 GHz, offering up to 40% better compute performance and 20% better price performance versus I3en instances.
I7ie instances offer up to 120TB local NVMe storage density for storage optimized instances and offer up to twice as many vCPUs and memory compared to prior generation instances. Powered by 3rd generation AWS Nitro SSDs, I7ie instances deliver up to 65% better real-time storage performance, up to 50% lower storage I/O latency, and 65% lower storage I/O latency variability compared to I3en instances.
I7ie are high density storage optimized instances, ideal for workloads requiring fast local storage with high random read/write performance at very low latency consistency to access large data sets. These instances are available in 9 virtual sizes and deliver up to 100Gbps of network bandwidth and 60Gbps of bandwidth for Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS).
To learn more, visit the I7ie instances page.

AWS Batch now supports quota management and preemption for SageMaker Training jobs

AWS Batch now supports quota management with job preemption for SageMaker Training jobs, enabling you to efficiently allocate and share compute resources across your teams and projects. If you’re using GPU capacity in SageMaker Training jobs, you can now intelligently allocate compute resources, prioritize your business-critical training jobs, and automatically preempt lower-priority workloads when your urgent experiments arrive. With quota management, you can create up to 20 quota shares per job queue that function as virtual queues with dedicated capacity limits and configurable resource sharing strategies. The service automatically uses cross-share preemption to restore borrowed capacity when the original owner submits jobs, and supports in-share preemption to allow high-priority jobs to preempt lower-priority jobs within the same quota share. You can monitor capacity utilization at the queue, quota share, and job-level granularity, update job priorities after submission to influence preemption decisions, and configure preemption retry limits to control behavior. The feature integrates directly with the SageMaker Python SDK via the aws_batch module. Quota management with job preemption for SageMaker Training jobs is available today in all AWS Regions where AWS Batch is available. For more information, see our Quota Management example notebook on GitHub and the AWS Batch User Guide.
