SDK Extensions Moved to Modularization

We are currently finalizing the move of the AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell and the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio to the new modularized SDK. In addition, we have released new versions of the ASP.NET session provider and the .NET System.Diagnostics trace listener. These two extensions have moved from the SDK GitHub repository into their own separate repositories for better discoverability and to make it easier to track progress.

Session Provider

The Amazon DynamoDB session state provider allows ASP.NET applications to store their sessions inside Amazon DynamoDB. This helps applications scale across multiple application servers while maintaining session state across the system. To get started, check out the NuGet package or view the source on GitHub.

Trace Listener

The AWS DynamoDB trace listener allows System.Diagnostics.Trace calls to be written to Amazon DynamoDB. It is really useful when running an application over several hosts to have all the log messages in one location where the data can be searched through. To get started, check out the NuGet package or view the source on GitHub.
