Amazon ECS now supports GPU sharing with NVIDIA Multi-Process Service (MPS)

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) now supports GPU sharing with NVIDIA Multi-Process Service (MPS), enabling you to run multiple Amazon ECS tasks concurrently on a single NVIDIA GPU. GPU sharing helps you increase GPU utilization and reduce infrastructure costs for workloads that use only part of a GPU’s capacity, such as small-model inference, AV/ADAS simulations, embedding generation, and multi-model serving.
With GPU sharing, you can pack more workloads onto each GPU instance without changing your application code. You define the GPU memory each container needs and can optionally set a maximum share of GPU compute, and Amazon ECS places tasks on GPUs with available capacity as your services scale and deploy. GPU sharing is supported on Amazon ECS Managed Instances and Amazon ECS on Amazon EC2. On Amazon ECS Managed Instances, Amazon ECS also monitors the MPS control daemon that enables sharing on each instance. If the daemon stops or becomes unhealthy, Amazon ECS automatically replaces the instance and moves your tasks to healthy capacity, so your GPU workloads keep running without manual intervention.
To get started, use the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, AWS SDKs, AWS CloudFormation, or other infrastructure-as-code tools to create a capacity provider with NVIDIA GPU instances, set the GPU sharing strategy and memory in the container definition of your task definition, and create a service on that capacity provider. This capability is available in all AWS commercial and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. To learn more, visit the Amazon ECS GPU sharing documentation.

Amazon IVS Low-Latency Streaming now provides a failover slate

Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) Low-Latency Streaming now provides a failover slate, an animated image that IVS displays to viewers when a broadcaster’s stream is unexpectedly interrupted. Instead of a buffering wheel or frozen frame, viewers see the slate until the broadcaster reconnects. Live playback then resumes automatically, without viewers needing to refresh their player.
The failover slate helps you retain your audience during momentary disruptions and is ideal for broadcasters streaming from mobile devices or from locations with unreliable connectivity. You can enable the failover slate on new or existing channels and monitor slate activity with Amazon EventBridge events and Amazon CloudWatch metrics.
Amazon IVS is a managed live streaming solution designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world. Visit the AWS Region table for a full list of AWS Regions where the Amazon IVS console and APIs for control and creation of video streams are available.
To learn more, see the Amazon IVS Failover Slate documentation.

Amazon ECR now supports replication backfill for existing container images

Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) now supports replication backfill, enabling you to replicate existing images in your private registry to your configured replication registry destinations. Previously, replication only applied to images pushed after the replication configuration was enabled, requiring customers to manually retag images to trigger replication of preexisting images. With replication backfill, you can now replicate your full image catalog to new or existing destinations with a single API call.
Replication backfill is useful when expanding to a new AWS Region, validating disaster recovery readiness, updating replication rules, or ensuring complete image catalogs exist across Regions for compliance purposes. You can run up to ten backfill jobs concurrently, monitor progress and per-image results through new APIs, and stop a job at any time without deleting images that have already been replicated.
Replication backfill is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon ECR is available. To learn more, refer to the Amazon ECR user guide.
