Amazon Redshift auto-copy is now available in the AWS Asia Pacific (Malaysia), Asia Pacific (Thailand), Mexico (Central), and Asia Pacific (Taipei) regions. With Auto-Copy, you can set up continuous file ingestion from your Amazon S3 prefix and automatically load new files to tables in your Amazon Redshift data warehouse without the need for additional tools or custom solutions. Previously, Amazon Redshift customers had to build their data pipelines using COPY commands to automate continuous loading of data from S3 to Amazon Redshift tables. With auto-copy, you can now setup an integration which will automatically detect and load new files in a specified S3 prefix to Redshift tables. The auto-copy jobs keep track of previously loaded files and exclude them from the ingestion process. You can monitor auto-copy jobs using system tables. To learn more, see the documentation or chec

Amazon S3 adds AWS CloudTrail events for table maintenance activities in Amazon S3 Tables. You can now use AWS CloudTrail to track compaction and snapshot expiration operations performed by S3 Tables on your tables. S3 Tables automatically performs maintenance to optimize query performance and lower costs of your tables stored in S3 table buckets. You can monitor and audit S3 Tables maintenance activities such as compaction and snapshot expiration as management events in AWS CloudTrail. To get started with monitoring, create a trail in the AWS CloudTrail console and filter for 'AwsServiceEvents' as the eventType and 'TablesMaintenanceEvent' as the eventName. AWS CloudTrail events for S3 Tables maintenance are now available in all AWS Regions where S3 Tables are available. To learn more, visit Amazon S3 Tables

Amazon CloudWatch agent has added support for configurable Windows Event log filters. This new feature allows customers to selectively collect and send system and application events to CloudWatch from Windows hosts running on Amazon EC2 or on-premises. The addition of customizable filters helps customers to focus on events that meet specific criteria, streamlining log management and analysis. Using this new functionality of the CloudWatch agent, you can define filter criteria for each Windows Event log stream in the agent configuration file. The filtering options include event levels, event IDs, and regular expressions to either "include" or "exclude" text within events. The agent evaluates each log event against your defined filter criteria to determine whether it should be sent to CloudWatch. Events that don't match your criteria are discarded. Windows event filters help you to manage your log ingestion by processing only the events you need, such as those containing spec
