Trying to do all of that for hundreds or thousands of services, complete with proper continuous integration and continuous deployments, can be hard for any team.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/proton\/?tag=reviewgeek-20\">AWS Proton<\/a> looks to improve that by offering a \u201cfully managed <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lication deployment service\u201d for container and serverless applications. Basically, it\u2019s infrastructure-as-code, where you define environment templates that contain all the info Proton needs to run your infrastructure. This makes doing updates to the entire network a lot easier.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8489\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cloudsavvyit.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/aafcd5d6c2bc4c5ca4c2017cca2fc222\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/bf2b219d.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"401\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>AWS already has CloudFormation, an IaC solution for all AWS services, but Proton is built specifically for containers and serverless deployments.<\/p>\n<p>Proton is entirely free to use, though you will of course pay for all AWS resources your applications run on.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Faster_EBS_Storage\"><\/span>Faster EBS Storage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>EBS got an upgrade. The older gp2 <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> purpose disk was replaced with gp3, which is up to four times faster. These still cap out at 16 TB, and provide single digit millisecond latency, but now do so with 4x higher bandwidth with up to 1000 MB\/s per volume. Not only that, they are actually <em>20% cheaper<\/em> per GB than existing gp2 volumes.<\/p>\n<p>The high end <code>io2<\/code>\u00a0volumes now have io2 Block Express, which is just an increase in the maximum IOPS you can provision. Naturally, these will be a lot more expensive, but the focus of these is maximum performance, not price\/performance.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_EC2_Instances\"><\/span>New EC2 Instances<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>EC2 got a couple new instances. One of the weirdest ones is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/ec2\/instance-types\/mac\/?hp=r&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">EC2 Mac Instances<\/a>, which is exactly what you think, a Mac Mini in the cloud. The point of this is to make it easy to provision and rent Mac based virtual environments for developers. There\u2019s only the one instance type,\u00a0mac1.metal, which comes with 12 cores and 32 GB of RAM.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/ec2\/instance-types\/c6\/?hp=r&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">C6g,\u00a0M6g, and R6g Instances<\/a>\u00a0are all based on AWS\u2019s ARM based Graviton2 processor and support 100 Gbps networking. They\u2019re advertised as delivering up to \u201c40% better price performance\u201d over x86 instances, though in specific workloads. Either way, AWS\u2019s custom silicon is very promising, and the Graviton2 chip competes well with x86 processors.<\/p>\n<p>The new <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/ec2\/instance-types\/d3\/?hp=r&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">D3 series<\/a> delivers the highest local storage capacity in the cloud. The feature faster disk speed and up to 336 TB of space, at 80% lower cost-per-TB of storage compared to D2 instances.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/ec2\/instance-types\/r5\/?hp=r&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">R5b<\/a>, a new <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> of AWS\u2019s memory focused R5 database instances. Not much new but considering block storage is often a bottleneck for write-heavy operations, this will be a great upgrade for many people.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/ec2\/instance-types\/g4\/?hp=r#Amazon_EC2_G4dn_Instances&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">G4dn<\/a> is a new GPU instance designed to deliver the best price to performance for graphics and machine learning models. They\u2019re powered by up to 8 NVIDIA T4 GPUs, 96 vCPUs, 100 Gbps networking, and 1.8 TB local NVMe-based SSD storage.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, they announce <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/ec2\/instance-types\/m5\/?hp=r&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">M5zn<\/a> instances, which are pretty basic except having a high clock up to\u00a04.5 GHz and 100 Gbps networking.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Running_ECS_and_EKS_on_Your_Infrastructure\"><\/span>Running ECS and EKS on Your Infrastructure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>AWS usually likes to sell you on their own compute power, but occasionally they allow customers to run their services using their own hardware.<\/p>\n<p>AWS ECS Anywhere and EKS Anywhere do just that, allow you to run ECS and EKS on your own managed servers. You can start up ECS tasks, and configure them to run on your hardware, provided your servers are running the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/aws\/amazon-ecs-agent?tag=reviewgeek-20\">AWS ECS Agent<\/a> and configured to connect to your AWS account.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8487\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cloudsavvyit.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/398828c3727e05e45eefbba87e1cac42\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/e2d8d399.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"347\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>No pricing information so far, but since it runs on your own hardware, it\u2019ll likely be free or at least much cheaper to use.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Aurora_Updates\"><\/span>Aurora Updates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>AWS announced two updates for Amazon Aurora, their fully managed MySQL and\u00a0PostgreSQL compatible database-as-a-service.<\/p>\n<p>The first is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/rds\/aurora\/babelfish\/?hp=r&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">Babelfish<\/a>, a new translation layer that provides Microsoft SQL Server compatibility for Aurora PostgreSQL. The result is that Aurora basically supports SQL Server now with a few tweaks, and while it\u2019ll still require some code changes, it won\u2019t be a major rewrite.<\/p>\n<p>The other is Aurora Serverless 2, an upgrade over the existing serveless configuration that should make it easier to run a massive autoscaling\u00a0cluster that can handle hundreds of thousands of transactions in a fraction of a second. Now, instead of doubling capacity every time a workload needs to scale, it adjusts capacity in fine-grained increments. It also supports\u00a0Multi-AZs, Global Databases, and read replicas.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
