AWS Trusted Advisor now helps you better secure your data by alerting you whenever it detects a public snapshot of your Amazon EBS or Amazon RDS data.
For example, if an Amazon EBS volume snapshot is made public, AWS Trusted Advisor will identify that public snapshot and provide you with an alert so that you can investigate whether it was done intentionally.
These new checks are available to all AWS customers at no additional charge. Business and Enterprise support customers can use these new checks to enable automated actions via Trusted Advisor’s integration with CloudWatch Events.
For more information about AWS Trusted Advisor, visit Trusted Advisor Best Practices (Checks).

Just as with other Amazon Rekognition APIs, the RecognizeCelebrities API is integrated with Amazon S3 and AWS Lambda, to process hundreds of millions of images per day, whether it be on-demand, in batch, or in near real-time.

You can now use Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) First-in, First-out (FIFO) queues in the EU (Ireland) region. FIFO queues are designed to ensure that the order in which messages are sent and received is strictly preserved and that each message is processed exactly once. Amazon SQS is a fully managed message queuing service that makes it easy to decouple and scale microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications. Building applications from individual components that each perform a discrete function improves scalability and reliability. Using SQS, you can send, store, and receive messages between software components at any volume, without losing messages or requiring other services to be always available.
