Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio adds notebook import/export and developer acceleration features

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio notebooks now support import/export capabilities, enabling migration from JupyterLab and other notebook platforms. This release also introduces developer acceleration features including cell reordering, keyboard shortcuts, cell renaming, and multi-line SQL support, designed to enhance productivity for data engineers and data scientists professionals working with notebook-based workflows.
The new import/export functionality supports .ipynb, .json, and .py formats while preserving cell types and metadata, making platform migration straightforward. You can export notebooks in four formats including Jupyter notebook with requirements (.zip), standard .ipynb, Python scripts (.py), and SageMaker Unified Studio native format (.json). Developer acceleration features enable you to reorder cells without copy-paste duplication, assign custom names to cells for improved navigation in large notebooks, use familiar keyboard shortcuts for faster development, and execute multiple SQL statements in a single cell with results displayed in separate tabs for easy comparison and analysis.
This feature is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio is available. To learn more, visit the Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio marketing page and user guide.

AWS Cost Explorer launches Natural Language Query capabilities powered by Amazon Q

AWS Cost Explorer now brings Amazon Q Developer’s generative AI capabilities directly into your cost analysis workflows. You can now use natural language queries to ask Amazon Q questions about your AWS cost and usage data. In addition to providing answers to your question, you now also receive automatically updated visualizations in Cost Explorer. This enables faster cost analysis, reduces time to insights, and makes cost visibility accessible to every team member.
With this launch, you can start your cost analysis with the new suggested prompts in Cost Explorer. These prompts include commonly asked cost questions like “Show me my top spending services for this month.” Amazon Q provides detailed insights while Cost Explorer simultaneously updates with the corresponding visualization, filters, and groupings. You can also ask custom questions in your own words using the new ‘Ask Question’ button, exploring your spending patterns conversationally. Cost Explorer automatically updates charts and tables when analysis is based on your cost and usage data. When Amazon Q compiles insights from additional datasets such as pricing or anomaly detection, visualizations are displayed in Amazon Q’s new artifacts panel. You can continue the conversation with follow-up questions while maintaining full context, allowing you to go from a quick cost check to a deep investigation without switching tools or breaking your workflow.
Natural language cost analysis for AWS Cost Explorer is available today in all commercial AWS Regions at no additional charge. To learn more, visit AWS Cost Explorer. To get started, see the user guide.
