In this post, we show how to configure Kerberos authentication for Spark jobs on Amazon EMR on EKS, authenticating against a Kerberos-enabled HMS so you can run both Amazon EMR on EC2 and Amazon EMR on EKS workloads against a single, secure HMS deployment.

In this post, we’ll show you how to use Kiro powers, a new capability that equips Kiro with contextual knowledge and tooling. You can simplify your MSK cluster management, from initial setup to diagnosing common issues, all through natural language conversations.

In this post, we show you how to build a serverless, low-cost monitoring solution for Amazon Redshift Serverless that proactively detects performance anomalies and sends actionable alerts directly to your selected Slack channels.

In this post, we provide implementation guidance for building integrated analytics solutions that combine the generative BI features of Amazon Quick with Amazon Redshift and Amazon Athena SQL analytics capabilities.

In this post, we show you how to use the new topic management capabilities of Amazon MSK to streamline your Apache Kafka operations. We demonstrate how to manage topics through the console, control access with AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), and bring topic provisioning into your continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.

In this post, we explore scenarios where customers need more control over their network infrastructure when building their unified data and analytics strategic layer. We’ll show how you can bring your own Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) and set up Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio for strict network control.

In this post, we explore SageMaker Unified Studio multi-account deployments in depth: what they entail, why they matter, and how to implement them effectively. We examine architecture patterns, evaluate trade-offs across security boundaries, operational overhead, and team autonomy. We also provide practical guidance to help you design a deployment that balances centralized control with distributed ownership across your organization.

This is a two-part series post. In the first part, we walk you through how to set up the automated processing for unstructured documents, extract and enrich metadata using AI, and make your data discoverable through SageMaker Catalog. The second part is currently in the works and will show you how to discover and access the enriched unstructured data assets as a data consumer. By the end of this post, you will understand how to combine Amazon Textract and Anthropic Claude through Amazon Bedrock to extract key business terms and enrich metadata using Amazon SageMaker Catalog to transform unstructured data into a governed, discoverable asset.

In this post, we show you how to use Apache Airflow tags to systematically manage DAG permissions, reducing operational burden while maintaining robust security controls that complement infrastructure-level security measures.

In this post, we show you how Kafka clients can use Zilla Plus to securely access your MSK Serverless clusters through Identity and Access Management (IAM) authentication over PrivateLink, from as many different AWS accounts or VPCs as needed. We also show you how the solution provides a way to support a custom domain name for your MSK Serverless cluster.
