Amazon Aurora DSQL now supports the JSONB data type with compression

Amazon Aurora DSQL introduces support for the PostgreSQL JSONB data type with optional compression. You can now use code and tools that depend on PostgreSQL’s JSONB type with Aurora DSQL, making it easier to store semi-structured data alongside relational data. You can use the JSONB data type when creating or modifying tables to store semi-structured data such as system configuration metadata, API parameters, and event logs. With PostgreSQL compression enabled by default, larger JSONB payloads are stored more efficiently, helping reduce storage costs. Get started with Aurora DSQL for free with the AWS Free Tier. For information about Regional availability, see the AWS Region table. You can learn more about Aurora DSQL data types, including JSONB, here.

AWS Savings Plans Purchase Analyzer now supports target coverage analysis

Today, AWS announces target coverage analysis in Savings Plans Purchase Analyzer, a capability in AWS Billing and Cost Management that helps you plan your Savings Plans purchases based on your coverage target. Savings Plans Purchase Analyzer helps you evaluate different purchase scenarios by estimating the potential impact of Savings Plans purchases on cost, coverage, utilization, and savings. With target coverage analysis, you can set a specific percentage of On-Demand spend to be covered by Savings Plans. Savings Plans Purchase Analyzer uses your historical usage to recommend a new purchase amount to help you reach that target. You can further customize your analysis using parameters such as custom lookback period or excluding expiring Savings Plans, and compare cost, coverage, utilization, and savings across different coverage targets. You can view your recommendations through interactive charts or access your target coverage analysis via the Purchase Analyzer API. Target coverage analysis is available in all AWS Regions where Savings Plans Purchase Analyzer is available. To learn more, visit the AWS Savings Plans page and user guide.
