Introduction Today we are excited to announce the launch of AWS Signer Container Image Signing, a new capability that gives customers native AWS support for signing and verifying container images stored in container registries like Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR). AWS Signer is a fully managed code signing service to ensure trust and integrity […]

Introduction Container images are stored in registries and pulled into environments where they run. There are many different types of registries from private, self-run registries to public, unauthenticated registries. The registry you use is a direct dependency that can have an impact on how fast you can scale, the security of the software you run, […]

Introduction Many AWS customers use Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) to run machine learning workloads. Containerization allows machine learning engineers to package and distribute models easily, while Kubernetes helps in deploying, scaling, and improving. When working with customers that run machine learning training jobs in Kubernetes, we ‘ve seen that as the data set […]

Introduction In this modern cloud era, customers automatically build, test, and deploy the new version of their application multiple times a day. This common scenario in the software development life cycle creates faster delivery of features, bug fixes, and other updates to end users. One key aspect of continuous deployment is semantic versioning, a system […]

Introduction Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) is a fully managed container registry offering high-performance hosting, so you can reliably deploy application images and artifacts anywhere. It stores container images and artifacts that deploy application workloads across AWS services as well as non-AWS environments. Amazon ECR is a regional service, where each Region in each […]

Overview Data transfer costs can play a significant role in determining the overall design of a system. The Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR), Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) can all incur data transfer charges depending on a variety of factors. It can be difficult to visualize what […]

Introduction In May of 2021, the United States Executive Branch released an Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity. One of the key focus areas for this order was enhancing software supply chain security, with requirements around addressing supply chain risks by, in part: Securing development environments with strong access controls Using automated code scanning […]

Introduction With the ongoing popularity and adoption of container orchestrators such as Kubernetes, more and more cloud-native applications are built on top of it. Besides business applications, companies are migrating their infrastructure-related components such as CI/CD systems as well. But are those systems ready for such modern platforms? The answer depends. Clearly, most of the […]

This post shows how to configure a Linux container running on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to connect to a SQL Server database using Windows (or Integrated) Authentication. Windows Authentication is the recommended mechanism to connect to SQL Server databases, but using it can be challenging when running containerized workloads.

This post is contributed by Raj Seshadri and Jimmy Ray As containers are used in cloud native production environments, DevOps and security teams need to gain real-time visibility into container activity, restrict container access to host and network resources, and detect and prevent exploits and attacks on running containers. Kyverno is a policy engine for […]
