AWS re:Invent: AWS Glue 4.0 released, enhanced Amazon CodeWhisperer preview, ECS Service Connect for better microservices communication, and more

AWS re:Invent kicked off today with many new releases in the analytics, AI, compute, database, and more spaces. The event will last through December 1st. 

AWS Glue 4.0 released

The new version of the scalable serverless tool built to accelerate the development and execution of data integration and ETL workloads received updated engines, support for additional data formats, Ray support, and more. 

Glue 4.0 includes Python 3.10 and Apache Spark 3.3.0. The Spark version includes low-level runtime filtering, improved error messages, and additional built-in functions.

It also adds native support for the Cloud Shuffle Plugin so that users can scale their disk usage and the new Adaptive Query Execution can help optimize queries. 

Support for Pandas, the open-source data analysis and manipulation tool as well as new data formats such as Apache Hudi, Apache Iceberg, and Delta Lake are now supported. 

Amazon CodeWhisperer preview gets many enhancements

The ML-powered service that helps improve developer productivity by generating code recommendations now includes Single Sign-On authentication for AWS administrators.

With this improvement, they can easily integrate CodeWhisperer with their existing workforce identity solutions, provide access to users and groups and configure organization-wide settings. 

Users who don’t have AWS accounts can use CodeWhisperer with their personal email using AWS Builder ID.

Language support has been expanded to C# and TypeScript projects in addition to Python, Java and JavaScript.

Amazon ECS Service Connect enables easy communication between microservices

The new capability provides an easy network setup and seamless service communication deployed across multiple ECS clusters and virtual private clouds.

Users can refer and connect their services with logical names on AWS Cloud Map, which can then automatically distribute traffic between ECS tasks. 

ECS Service Connect is fully supported in AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK, AWS Copilot, and AWS Proton for infrastructure provisioning, code deployments, and monitoring of services.

AWS Config rules now support proactive compliance

Proactive mode with AWS Config enables users to run rules at any time before provisioning to save time on implementing custom pre-deployment validations. 

“When implementing a new service or a new functionality, development teams can run rules in proactive mode as part of their continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline to identify noncompliant resources,” Danilo Poccia, chief evangelist at AWS wrote in a post. 

Users can also employ AWS CloudFormation Guard in deployment pipelines to check for compliance proactively.

The full list of releases from today’s AWS re:Invent is available here.

Difference between Web Designer and Web Developer Neeraj Mishra The Crazy Programmer

Have you ever wondered about the distinctions between web developers’ and web designers’ duties and obligations? You’re not alone! Many people have trouble distinguishing between these two. Although they collaborate to publish new websites on the internet, web developers and web designers play very different roles. To put these job possibilities into perspective, consider the construction of a house. To create a vision for the house, including the visual components, the space planning and layout, the materials, and the overall appearance and sense of the space, you need an architect. That said, to translate an idea into a building, you need construction professionals to take those architectural drawings and put them into practice. Image Source In a similar vein, web development and design work together to create websites. Let’s examine the major responsibilities and distinctions between web developers and web designers. Let’s get going, shall we? What Does a Web Designer Do?

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. 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? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are declaring 20
