We are pleased to announce the new Management Console for Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR). The new console is much faster than the old console and has some powerful new features, including support for:
- Resizing a running cluster (add/remove instances)
- Cloning a running or terminated cluster
- Hadoop 2 and custom CloudWatch metrics for Hadoop 2
- Targeting a specific Availability Zone
- Creating clusters with IAM Roles
- Submitting multiple processing steps (before and after cluster creation)
- EMR Doc Search via a new EMR Help Portal
The new console leverages EMR's new high performance read APIs. (IAM users who do not have permission to call the new APIs will be redirected to the old console. Click here for more detail.)
Please click on the Feedback button in the console to let us know what you think.
