Code isn’t the only way to contribute to open source. The popular Apache TinkerPop project has a recognizable and memorable identity thanks to graphic artist and Apache committer Ketrina Thompson.

If your network architecture includes multiple route tables in your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and you’ve been looking for an automated solution for synchronizing route target updates across route tables, check out the AWS Sync Routes project. Or, if you just want to explore a ready‑to‑deploy, serverless infrastructure as code project, then the AWS Sync Routes project can help here, too. This […]

Since its initial release in November 2018, AWS ParallelCluster (an AWS-supported open source tool) has made it easier and more cost effective for users to manage and deploy HPC clusters in the cloud. Since then, the team has continued to enhance the product with more configuration flexibility and enhancements like built-in support for the Elastic […]

  As AWS continues to increase our participation in a wide variety of open source communities, we’ve been fortunate to get to work with a range of talented developers. One of these contributors is Dr. Colin Percival, a long-time FreeBSD developer perhaps best known for his work on FreeBSD Update and Portsnap. Colin is also […]

High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster administrators typically need a way to let their users to create HPC clusters quickly and easily from a common Windows desktop, while enforcing security, isolation, scalability, and cost effectiveness. This important step could be part of a wider user workflow, or an established procedure followed by HPC users to start […]

Our robot overlords may not take over anytime soon, but when they do, they’ll likely be running ROS. ROS, or Robot Operating System, was launched over a decade ago to unite developers in building “a collection of tools, libraries, and conventions that aim to simplify the task of creating complex and robust robot behavior across […]

  At pretty much any scale, search is hard. It becomes dramatically harder, however, when searching at Amazon scale: think billions of products, complicated by millions of sellers constantly changing those products on a daily basis, with hundreds of millions of customers searching through that inventory at all hours. Although Amazon has powered its product […]

Getting configurations right, especially at scale, can be a challenging task in cloud-native land. Automation helps you to make that task more manageable. In this guest post from EJ Etherington, CTO for Fairwinds, we look at an open source tool that allows you to check your EKS cluster setup, providing you with a graphical overview […]

Open source has long lived by the credo that “Every good work of software starts by scratching a developer’s personal itch.” At AWS, however, we’re not content with simply writing good software: we write software to meet customer needs. Over 90% of what we build is driven by customer demand, and the rest comes from […]

Today, we are announcing EKS support for the EBS Container Storage Interface driver, an initiative to create unified storage interfaces between container orchestrators such as Kubernetes and storage vendors like AWS. A History of Storage in Kubernetes As originally conceived, containers were a great fit for stateless applications. However, there was no provision for persistent […]
