Amazon Translate is a neural machine translation service that delivers fast, high-quality, affordable, and customizable language translation. Amazon Translate now supports language detection of input files for batch translations.

Amazon batch translation service will allow customers to translate multiple languages files in one translation job by detecting the dominated source language in each file. Customers can now mix multiple languages files in one S3 bucket and create one job without specifying the source language. This feature samples first 1,000 characters in each file and detects the dominat language as the source language and translates each file to the specified target language by leveraging Amazon Comprehend’s language detection API.

This feature is available in all commercial AWS regions wherever asynchronous batch translation service is available. To learn more, please read the Amazon Translate documentation on asynchronous batch translation.
