MP3•Episode home

In Season 4, Episode 46, Karl and Jon are joined by Matheus Guimaraes, AWS Lead Developer Advocate. Together, they cover the AWS CodeCommit resurrection and roadmap, the AWS Builder Center wishlist feature, ECS Express for simplified container deployment, an ECR archiving tier for cost optimization, blue-green deployments in Aurora Global, and accelerated recovery in Route 53 to speed up DNS updates during outages. They also discuss a recent AWS outage and its impact, then wrap up by joking about launching a “Shot Clock Karaoke” segment in future episodes where they’d have to sing AWS parody songs against the clock.

09:51 - CodeCommit resurrection

AWS brought back CodeCommit due to customer feedback and demand. It's now back in general availability with a public roadmap, including features like Git LFS support and expanded regional availability. The decision to resurrect the service was based on customer needs and integrations.

19:55 - AWS Billing Transfer

24:32 - ECS Express

ECS Express is a new mode that simplifies container deployment on Amazon ECS. It creates clusters with best-practice defaults, allowing teams to focus on container deployment without extensive setup. It's suitable for production use and can be customized later.

30:55 - ECR archiving tier

Amazon ECR now offers an archiving tier for container images, addressing compliance needs and cost optimization. Images can be automatically moved to the archive based on usage patterns and easily restored when needed.

35:06 - Blue-green deployments in Aurora Global

Aurora Global now supports blue-green deployments across up to 10 regions, simplifying database updates and migrations with minimal downtime. This feature extends to schema changes, potentially solving complex database DevOps challenges.

39:26 - Accelerated recovery in Route 53

In response to recent outages, AWS introduced an accelerated recovery feature for Route 53. This allows customers to continue making DNS updates with a 60-minute SLA even if a primary region (like North Virginia) is down.
