Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases now provides option to stop ingestion jobs

Posted on: Oct 1, 2024

Today, Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases is announcing the general availability of the stop ingestion API. This new API offers you greater control over data ingestion workflows by allowing you to stop an ongoing ingestion job that you no longer want to continue.

Earlier, you had to wait for the full completion of an ingestion job, even in cases where you no longer desired to ingest from the data source or needed to make other adjustments. With the introduction of the new "StopIngestionJob" API, you can now stop an in-progress ingestion job with a single API call. For example, you can use this feature to quickly stop an ingestion job you accidentally initiated, or if you want to change the documents in your data source. This enhanced flexibility enables you to rapidly respond to changing requirements and optimize your costs.

This new capability is available across all AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases is available.
