AWS Elemental MediaTailor now supports HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) Interstitials for live streams, enabling broadcasters and streaming service providers to deliver seamless, personalized ad experiences across a wide range of modern video players. This capability allows customers to insert interstitial advertisements and promotions directly into live streams using the HLS Interstitials specification (RFC 8216), which is natively supported by popular players including HLS.js, Shaka Player, Bitmovin Player, and Apple devices running iOS 16.4, iPadOS 16.4, tvOS 16.4, and later. With HLS Interstitials, MediaTailor automatically generates the necessary metadata tags (Interstitial class EXT-X-DATERANGE with X-ASSET-LIST attributes) that signal to client players when and how to play interstitial content. This approach eliminates the need for custom player-side stitching logic, reducing development complexity and ensuring consistent playback behavior. The feature integrates with MediaTailor’s existing server-side ad insertion (SSAI) capabilities, delivering frame-accurate transitions with no buffering between content and interstitials. Server-side beaconing continues to work with HLS Interstitials, ensuring ad tracking and measurement workflows remain intact. HLS Interstitials for live streams is particularly valuable for sports broadcasts, live news, and event streaming where precise ad timing and minimal latency are critical. The feature supports pre-roll and mid-roll insertion, giving customers flexibility in how they monetize their live content. This launch complements MediaTailor’s existing HLS Interstitials support for VOD, rounding out support across Linear, Live, FAST, and VOD workflows. MediaTailor makes it easy to test and deploy—customers can rapidly enable or disable HLS Interstitials with a simple query parameter on the multi-variant manifest request, providing per playback session control without changing the underlying MediaTailor configuration. AWS Elemental MediaTailor HLS Interstitials for live streams is available today in all AWS Regions where MediaTailor operates. You pay only for the features you use, with no upfront commitments. To learn more and get started, visit the AWS Elemental MediaTailor documentation and the HLS Interstitials implementation guide.

Amazon Connect flow modules now support custom inputs, outputs, and branches, along with version and alias management. With this launch, you can now define flexible parameters for your reusable flow modules to math your specific business logic. For example, you can create an authentication module that accepts a phone number and PIN as inputs, then returns the customer name and authentication status as outputs with branches such as “authenticated” or “not authenticated”. All parameters are customizable to meet your specific needs. Additionally, advanced versioning and aliasing capabilities allow you to manage module updates more seamlessly. You can create immutable version snapshots and map aliases to specific versions. When you update an alias to point to a new version, all flows using that module automatically reference the updated version. These new features make flow modules more powerful and reusable, allowing you to build and maintain flows more efficiently. To learn more about these feature, see the Amazon Connect Administrator Guide. This feature is available in all AWS regions that offers Amazon Connect. To learn more about Amazon Connect, the AWS cloud-based contact center, please visit the Amazon Connect website.

Starting today, Amazon EC2 High Memory U7i instances with 6TB of memory (u7i-6tb.112xlarge) are now available in the Asia Pacific (Jakarta) region. U7i-6tb instances are part of AWS 7th generation and are powered by custom fourth generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processors (Sapphire Rapids). U7i-6tb instances offer 6TB of DDR5 memory, enabling customers to scale transaction processing throughput in a fast-growing data environment. U7i-6tb instances offer 448 vCPUs, support up to 100Gbps Elastic Block Storage (EBS) for faster data loading and backups, deliver up to 100Gbps of network bandwidth, and support ENA Express. U7i instances are ideal for customers using mission-critical in-memory databases like SAP HANA, Oracle, and SQL Server. To learn more about U7i instances, visit the High Memory instances page.

AWS Lambda launches enhanced error handling capabilities for Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (MSK) and self-managed Apache Kafka (SMK) event sources. These capabilities allow customers to build custom retry configurations, optimize retries of failed messages, and send failed events to a Kafka topic as an on-failure destination, enabling customers to build resilient Kafka workloads with robust error handling strategies. Customers use Kafka event source mappings (ESM) with their Lambda functions to build their mission-critical Kafka applications. Kafka ESM offers robust error handling of failed events by retrying events with exponential backoff, and retaining failed events in on-failure destinations like Amazon SQS, Amazon S3, Amazon SNS. However, customers need customized error handling to meet stringent business and performance requirements. With this launch, developers can now exercise precise control over failed event processing and leverage Kafka topics as an additional on-failure destination when using Provisioned mode for Kafka ESM. Customers can now define specific retry limits and time boundaries for retry, automatically discarding failed records beyond these limits to customer-specified destination. They can now also set automatic retries of failed records in the batch and enhance their function code to report individual failed messages, optimizing the retry process. This feature is available in all AWS Commercial Regions where AWS Lambda’s Provisioned mode for Kafka ESM is available. To enable these capabilities, provide configuration parameters for your Kafka ESM in the ESM API, AWS Console, and AWS CLI. To learn more, read the Lambda ESM documentation and AWS Lambda pricing.

Today, AWS announces enhanced log analytics capabilities in Amazon OpenSearch Service, making Piped Processing Language (PPL) and natural language the default experience in OpenSearch UI’s Observability workspace. This update combines proven pipeline syntax with simplified workflows to deliver an intuitive observability experience, helping customers analyze growing data volumes while controlling costs. The new experience includes 35+ new commands for deep analysis, faceted exploration, and natural language querying to help customers gain deeper insights across infrastructure, security, and business metrics. With this enhancement, customers can streamline their log analytics workflows using familiar pipeline syntax while leveraging advanced analytics capabilities. The solution includes enterprise-grade query capabilities, supporting advanced event correlation using natural language that help teams uncover meaningful patterns faster. Users can seamlessly move from query to visualization within a single interface, reducing mean time to detect and resolve issues. Admins can quickly stand up an end-to-end OpenTelemetry solution using OpenSearch’s Get Started workflow in the AWS console. The unified workflow includes out-of-the-box OpenSearch Ingestion pipelines for OpenTelemetry data, making it easier for teams to get started quickly. Amazon OpenSearch UI is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Osaka), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Asia Pacific (Hyderabad), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), Europe (Milan), Europe (Spain), Europe (Zurich), South America (São Paulo), and Canada (Central).
