Amazon EKS Anywhere allows customers to run containerized workloads on customer-managed infrastructure, and Nutanix enhances the list of deployment options for EKS Anywhere customers, which already includes bare metal servers, VMware vSphere, and Docker. AWS collaborated with Nutanix to integrate Amazon EKS Anywhere with the Cluster API provider for Nutanix to provide customers with declarative, Kubernetes-style APIs for cluster creation, configuration, and management.

Industrial digital transformation is driving changes to the operational technology (OT) landscape, making it more connected to the internet, IT systems, and solutions. With OT/IT convergence, there is greater access to critical OT systems and increasing susceptibility to malware and ransomware. Learn how Claroty xDome and AWS Security Hub can be used for security and vulnerability monitoring, and to provide visibility of security events to teams responsible for operational monitoring.

AWS provides a rich set of tools and capabilities for managing access to cloud architectures including AWS IAM Identity Center, which makes it easy to manage access across your entire organization. Learn how AWS customers can leverage Okta Access Requests and AWS IAM Identity Center to provide just-in-time access to cloud resources. Granting just-in-time access to developers for a limited time based on approval is an effective way to limit the active time frame for assignments to your AWS resources.

Learn how to build scalable, cost-effective, and serverless microservices using TiDB Cloud and AWS Lambda. TiDB Cloud is based on TiDB which is cloud-native, open-source distributed SQL database with built-in hybrid transactional and analytical processing (HTAP) that can handle multiple workloads seamlessly and effectively. Explore how pairing TiDB Cloud with AWS Lambda enables you to build serverless, event-driven microservices, further enhancing the scalability and cost-effectiveness of your architecture.

Companies are looking to extract more value from their data but often struggle to capture, store, and analyze all of the data they generate. Data governance includes a broad set of capabilities, and the right solution is often dependent upon customer requirements as well what services an organization already has in place. Learn how PrivaceraCloud provides a unified and holistic way to manage, define, and enforce policies across storage, compute engines, and consumption methods.

Parallels RAS provides a platform that can deliver consistent digital workspace services from multiple sources, without requiring specialist IT administration skills. This means existing teams can deploy solutions using Parallels RAS and easily integrate with AWS. We’ll walk you through the steps an administrator takes within the Parallels RAS Console to successfully deliver services to end users via Amazon EC2, and we’ll review the benefits of this integration.

To ensure cloud infrastructure is compliant with organizational policies and regulatory requirements, many platform engineering teams are embedding the policy-as-code practice into their DevSecOps toolchain. Learn how to use Pulumi and its CrossGuard policy-as-code feature to ensure your infrastructure is compliant before it’s ever provisioned in AWS. We’ll also demonstrate how to define custom policies in Python, and how to create a reusable package of policies by storing them in AWS CodeArtifact.

Amazon Redshift Serverless makes it easier to run and scale analytics without the burden of managing infrastructure. Learn how you can use Matillion Data Loader to extract data from source systems and load it to Amazon Redshift Serverless without having to worry about coding or managing infrastructure. Matillion Data Loader enables organizations that have data coming in from an ever-increasing number of sources and need faster, simpler access to insights and analytics.

SMBs with limited resources are often challenged with time and resource constraints to perform AWS Well-Architected Reviews on a regular basis. CloudCheckr CMx gives you the visibility and intelligence you need to lower costs, maintain security and compliance, and optimize resources in single or multi-cloud infrastructure. CloudCheckr’s Well-Architected Readiness Advisor report leverages the AWS Well-Architected Tool to map CloudCheckr’s best practice checks to the 6 pillars of AWS Well-Architected.

When a DXC Technology customer wanted a complete view of requests traveling through an application so they could compare trace sets with different conditions, DXC deployed distributed tracing using AWS X-Ray. This helped monitor and debug distributed applications within the workflow to aid in swift identification of performance issues or errors. Explore the solution’s reference architecture and follow a step-by-step how to enable AWS X-Ray for different AWS products.
