SD Times news digest: .NET Core Debugging with WSL 2 Preview released, Ahana Cloud for Presto, and Windows 10 Build 19042.508

The .NET Core Debugging extension gives users the ability to run and debug their .NET Core apps in WSL 2 – Preview without leaving Visual Studio. 

“For a Windows .NET user targeting Linux, WSL 2 lives in a sweet spot between production realism and productivity,” Microsoft wrote in a blog post.

Users can have a launch profile for Docker and WSL 2 in the same project and pick whichever is appropriate for a particular run. 

Ahana Cloud for Presto
Ahana unveiled its cloud-native managed service  designed to simplify the deployment, management and integration of Presto with data catalogs, databases and data lakes on AWS. 

”Organizations increasingly need self-service SQL analytics, and Ahana Cloud for Presto can now simplify and unify data analytics so users can query data directly in place across a range of data sources on AWS including Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) and others  – without the need to move or copy the data,” said Dipti Borkar, the cofounder and chief product officer of Ahana.

Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote?
