Amazon Quick now integrates with Snowflake Cortex AI

11 June 2026 @ 10:02 pm

Amazon Quick now integrates with Snowflake Cortex AI through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling teams to query their Snowflake data and documents using natural language, and automate multi-step workflows directly within their Quick workspace. After setting up the connection using Snowflake's managed MCP server with OAuth authentication, you can ask questions across structured data through Cortex Analyst and retrieve insights from unstructured documents through Cortex Search. With this integration, you can build Flows in Quick that orchestrate Snowflake Cortex Agents to execute repeatable, governed workflows with consistent structured output. This is ideal for any multi-step process that spans structured data and unstructured documents. The same MCP connection is also accessible from Quick Chat and other Quick features. For example, users can ask ad-hoc follow-up questions or explore their Snowflake data conversationally alongside their automated flows. Quick intellig

Amazon CloudWatch Application Signals now supports infrastructure, logs, and traces context for faster troubleshooting

11 June 2026 @ 8:10 pm

Amazon CloudWatch Application Signals introduces service health ranking on the application map and new infrastructure, logs, and traces tabs on the service overview page. These capabilities let operators triage unhealthy services and inspect the underlying compute environment, log snippets, and trace details in one place, making it easier to find root causes without switching tools. Customers use Application Signals to monitor the health of distributed applications, but identifying why a service was unhealthy often required leaving CloudWatch to correlate infrastructure data across separate tools. The application map now ranks services by health and shows runtime indicators on service nodes for Amazon EKS, Amazon ECS, AWS Lambda, and Amazon EC2, along with a new infrastructure tab that surfaces the compute and runtime environment, its components, and curated default metrics with deep links to the relevant monitoring tools. In addition, the service overview page provides the infr

Amazon Aurora now supports PostgreSQL major version 18

11 June 2026 @ 6:59 pm

Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition now supports PostgreSQL major version 18, starting with version 18.3. This release brings community improvements to query performance and database management, and introduces support for pg_roaringbitmap, a new extension that performs fast, memory-efficient set operations on large collections of integers. This enables use cases such as audience segmentation, tag-based filtering, and permission checks directly in the database without application-layer processing. PostgreSQL 18 introduces B-tree skip scans, which improve query performance, and reduce index storage and maintenance overhead. Major version upgrades now retain optimizer statistics, ensuring consistent query performance immediately after upgrading without waiting for statistics to be regenerated. Logical replication can now stream large transactions in parallel, reducing replication lag and keeping downstream systems more c

Amazon MWAA Serverless now supports Amazon EventBridge notifications

11 June 2026 @ 5:00 pm

Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA) Serverless now supports workflow and task state change events to Amazon EventBridge, enabling data engineering and platform teams to build event-driven automation for their Apache Airflow workflows. Previously, monitoring workflow execution required custom polling logic or manual observation. With this launch, MWAA Serverless can emit events when workflows transition between states, including started, running, succeeded, or failed, and when individual tasks change state, such as scheduled, succeeded, failed, or up for retry. With this feature, you can further automate your existing workflows - for example, using EventBridge notifications to trigger alerts when a production workflow fails, automatically restart dependent pipelines when an upstream workflow succeeds, or log state transitions to Amazon S3 for compliance and auditing. This feature is available in all AWS

AWS Elastic Beanstalk console now integrates CloudWatch Logs in the Logs tab

11 June 2026 @ 5:00 pm

AWS Elastic Beanstalk now provides a CloudWatch Logs integration directly in the environment Logs tab of the Elastic Beanstalk console. Previously, customers had to navigate to the CloudWatch console to find the relevant log groups and log streams for their environments. With this launch, customers can view CloudWatch log events without leaving the Elastic Beanstalk console.   The Logs tab displays log groups that an environment streams logs to, as well as log groups matching the aws/elasticbeanstalk/<env-name>/* prefix. Customers can select a log group to view its log streams, with the most recently active stream selected by default. A log stream dropdown allows switching between streams and filtering results. For deeper analysis, a View in CloudWatch dropdown provides direct links to the log group, log stream, or CloudWatch Logs Insights in the CloudWatch console. This feature is available across all Elastic Beanstalk platform branches in all

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus now supports out of order sample ingestion

11 June 2026 @ 1:00 pm

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus now supports out-of-order sample ingestion and a workspace-level rule query offset. All workspaces have a default out-of-order time window of 1 minute, allowing the workspace to accept metric samples arriving outside strict chronological order. You can adjust this window to match your ingestion patterns or set it to 0 to disable the feature and discard out-of-order samples. You can also configure a global rule query offset that introduces a delay before rule evaluation queries run, giving late-arriving samples time to be ingested before rules execute. Together, these features reduce data loss and improve alerting accuracy for workloads with distributed collectors, batched exports, or variable network latency. Out-of-order sample support ensures late-arriving data points are ingested rather than discarded, preserving metric completeness. The rule query offset compensates for the expected in

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus now supports Native Histograms

11 June 2026 @ 1:00 pm

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus now supports ingestion, storage, and querying of Prometheus native histograms, enabling customers to capture high-resolution metric distributions with greater precision and lower cardinality than classic histograms. DevOps engineers, site reliability engineers, and platform teams monitoring latency, request durations, and other distributions can now get more accurate percentile calculations without pre-defining bucket boundaries or managing high-cardinality time series. Native histograms use exponential bucketing to automatically adapt resolution to your data, storing an entire distribution in a single time series rather than requiring one series per bucket boundary. This reduces active series count, as a classic histogram with 20 buckets that previously required 22 time series now requires only one, while delivering more precise tail-latency insights from functions like histogram_quantile

AWS announces AWS Workload Credentials Provider

11 June 2026 @ 7:00 am

AWS announces AWS Workload Credentials Provider, a lightweight client-side provider that automates deployment of exported certificates from AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) and local caching of secrets from AWS Secrets Manager across AWS and non-AWS workloads. Previously, customers exporting public or private certificates from ACM had to build custom automation using Amazon EventBridge to detect renewals and deploy the updated certificates. With public certificate lifetimes decreasing per the the Certification Authority Browser Forum (CA/B) mandate, this custom automation can become difficult to maintain at scale. AWS Workload Credentials Provider eliminates this complexity by providing a single provider that helps distribute and automate both secrets and certificates to your workloads. You configure it with your certificate ARN and specify options such as file paths and server reload behavior — the provider then handles certificate export and deployment automatically to pre

OpenAI GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.5 models now available in US East (N. Virginia) on Amazon Bedrock

11 June 2026 @ 12:12 am

Today, AWS announces the expanded availability of OpenAI's GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.5 models, which are now available in the US East (N. Virginia) Region on Amazon Bedrock. With GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.5, you can build generative AI applications across reasoning, coding, computer use, document workflows, and long-running agentic tasks. GPT-5.5 is OpenAI's most capable model, designed for advanced coding, research, analysis, software operation, document workflows, and long-running agentic tasks. It can understand open-ended goals, use tools, reason across longer workflows, navigate ambiguity, and carry complex tasks through to completion with less orchestration. GPT-5.4 brings frontier reasoning, coding, computer use, long-context workflows, and tool use to production applications that interpret context, interact with tools, operate software environments, and verify outputs across multiple steps. Both models support a 272K-token context window, accept text and image input, and are availa

Amazon OpenSearch Service launches MCP Apps for agentic observability

10 June 2026 @ 10:58 pm

Amazon OpenSearch Service now supports MCP Apps, bringing observability workflows directly into compatible agentic IDEs such as Claude Desktop and VS Code. With this capability, your AI agent in local environment can investigate incidents using logs, traces, metrics, and alerts stored in OpenSearch domains, collections and Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus. You can easily review and verify the results in interactive MCP App visualizations without leaving your local environment. Each MCP App tool call returns a dual response, a concise text summary for your agent to reason over and an interactive visualization rendered in the same conversation thread for you to review. You can work alongside your observability agent from firing an alert, perform root cause analysis, exploring distributed traces, service maps, PromQL metric charts, and cross-signal correlations all within a single conversation. Available MCP App tools cover log, metrics and trace investigation, service pe

NetBox at 10: Network inventory tool now a full infrastructure intelligence platform

12 June 2026 @ 3:53 pm

NetBox was not originally designed to manage AI infrastructure. When the project was first released as an open source tool in 2016, the goal was straightforward: Give network teams a reliable record of what was on the network. The project spread well beyond that original scope. It is now embedded across more than 10,000 organizations, from enterprise networks to AI data centers running some of the most demanding infrastructure builds in the industry.  As the technology marks its 10-year anniversary, NetBox Labs is expanding the platform further

How Jeetu Patel made Cisco unrecognizable

12 June 2026 @ 3:20 pm

Cisco Live 2026 is in the books, and it was “prove it” time for a promise made 24 months ago. At Cisco Live 2024, Chief Product Officer Jeetu Patel promised that Cisco would be unrecognizable as a company—in a positive way—in two years. The innovation payload at the event suggests he has largely delivered on that pledge. Cisco is repositioning itself from a holding company of products and dashboards to a unified, AI-native infrastructure platform, with Cloud Control as the control plane, Cisco IQ as the CX brain, and Secure Networking as the glue binding it all together. The shift is not just about new

Amazon claims its data centers are 7x more water-efficient than the industry average

12 June 2026 @ 12:57 am

As they face increasing backlash over their resource consumption, major data center operators are scrambling to prove they’re not a drain on the environment, or, at least, not as much of one as their competition. Amazon has published some bold new claims to this end: The tech giant says it has achieved a 52% improvement in water efficiency over the last 5 years, and says its data centers are 7x more water-efficient than the industry average. This, the company says, is thanks to a mix of innovative methods, including free air and evaporative cooling, and increased temperature thresholds. The announcement underscores the importance of disclosure in the AI era, and si

Marvell announces 102.4 Tbps switch silicon built for AI

11 June 2026 @ 7:42 pm

Marvell Technology says its newly unveiled Teralynx T100 is the industry’s first 102.4 Tbps switch silicon purpose-built for AI. The Teralynx T100 was architected for AI, with low power consumption and low latency at this bandwidth tier, to address critical bottlenecks in today’s large clusters. Data movement has become an important concern in modern AI data centers. In the past, a cluster of a few servers could adequately handle back-office applications and databases. But with AI’s gigantic models, all sections of the data center need to move and receive data at high speeds. That requires a lot more power use than in the past. GPU- and XPU-based systems are ap

Cisco is in the years-long process of shifting from a hardware-centric business focused on switches and routers toward a broader software and services strategy, aiming to position itself as a central player in cloud, security, and AI-driven networking. Cisco remains a dominant hardware vendor but has spent recent years investing heavily in software to build recurring revenue streams, said Jack Gold, president of J.Gold Associates. In fact in its Q3 earnings call in May, Cisco said that 49% of total quarterly

Residential proxies are hiding in plain sight inside enterprise networks

10 June 2026 @ 2:06 pm

Residential proxy services route internet traffic through consumer devices to make connections appear to originate from real home IP addresses. Security researchers have tracked their use by threat actors for credential stuffing, ad fraud, and denial-of-service operations. What has been less understood is how widely those services have already penetrated enterprise networks, often without IT or security teams knowing. As it turns out, the risks posed by residential proxies to enterprise networks are widespread. Infoblox analyzed billions of DNS resolutions across its Threat Defense Cloud customer base and revealed just how a big a pro

Linux nft firewall: overlapping set elements

PHP code cannot connect to NetworkManager

11 June 2026 @ 12:33 pm

I need to access Network Manager functionality from PHP code by exec()-ing the "nmcli" command. However, when run from PHP code, "nmcli" command returns the error message "Network Manager is not running" and does nothing. Network Manager is running and I can successfully run "nmcli" command from the command line even as the Apache user. I suspected it has something to do with the lack of DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable in the environment in which PHP is running (and of course lack of the actual socket this variable points to) but probably it's not that issue, because when I run the "nmcli" command from command line with strace, I can see that it doesn't access that socket at all. I suspected some SELinux issue, but I don't see any recent denials in the audit logs. I don't know where to search. It's a standard Apache/PHP (FPM) installation on a RHEL10 OS. Edit: The problem is

Intel AMT/vPro enters power save mode after one minute of inactivity becomes unresponsive

11 June 2026 @ 6:52 am

An industrial mini-PC has Gen 15 Intel Core Ultra 7 155H CPU. It has vPro/AMT onboard and i226-LM NIC. The goal is to use AMT/vPro in CCM mode for remote power control of the PC. This technology already works on similar mini-PC configurations based on Intel Core CPUs of gen 6-13. (I did not test it on CPU before Gen 6 and on Gen 14). The status of Gen 15 mini-PC is: AMT FW Core Version: 18.0.5. This is greater that AMT release 9.5. AMT is set with static IP/netmask. AMT is able to execute a PC power cycle by HTTPS request. The Mini-PC is NOT mobile device. The Wake on LAN is disabled in all mini-PC generations in use. The problem is: After not being used for 1 minute or so, the AMT stops responding to HTTPS request and even to ping. It resumes the work (responding to HTTPS and ping) after someone starts using the PC or immediately after power cycle. The difference in hardware, s

prerequisites for working at a data center

My apologies if this isn't the right forum. I have a friend who has been out of the labor force for more than ten years caring for a family member. Although he's never worked in IT, he's intensely interested in hardware and network infrastructure, having spent much of his free time building Linux servers, setting up home networks, tinkering with virtualization, etc. Now that he's preparing to return to work it occurred to me that he might be able to turn his hobby into a livelihood. He's in North Carolina's Piedmont Triad where there are a number of data centers, and I'm hoping to find recommendations and resources he can use to make himself a good candidate for entry-level job openings.

solaris SMB share - capability SIDs in ACL

11 June 2026 @ 12:41 am

I'm trying to copy files using robocopy /copy:datso from Windows Server 2008 R2 to Solaris 11.4 share (ZFS). When copying Favorites folders I get "Invalid parameter" error. This folder has ACL with S-1-15-3- SIDs (capability SID) and they are not copied. Tried to copy the folder with FAR and got same error (if "Copy ACLs" is choosen). In the same time I have linux fileserver and see that it serves such ACLs (but its samba settings and ACL storage is very different). Does Solaris support such SIDs and if yes how it can be enabled?

Is there any risk of confidential data appearing during a Windows laptop reset?

10 June 2026 @ 7:40 pm

I need to provide a clear, definitive answer to a concern raised by non‑technical managers. The environment is fully cloud‑based: Intune, Autopilot, OneDrive, SharePoint, M365, encrypted local copies, and users trained not to store local data. Is there any real risk of confidential data(*) appearing on screen during the reconditioning of a laptop (re-imaging or AutoPilot reset) for device reassignment? Have you ever seen sensitive information appear on screen during such operations? Can a device reset cause data from the previous user to reappear? I’m not asking about internal procedures — only whether, in such a cloud‑only scenario, a reset could display any previous user data on screen at any point during the process. I’m turning to the community for two reasons: My own explanation isn’t being given much weight. I want to make sure I’m not overlooking any unusu

With PHP-FPM and Apache, messages sent to stderr are not present in PHP-FPM error log

10 June 2026 @ 1:56 pm

I'm setting up a new server to replace a quite old one.

With default setup, the PHP errors go to /var/log/php-fpm/www-error.log file. However, messages written from PHP to stderr don't. I have set catch_workers_output = yes in the config file /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf (according to comments in that file), then - just to be sure - fully stopped both Apache and PHP-FPM services and started them again. However, with the following PHP code: error_log("before"); system("bad_command"); error_log("after"); $err = fopen('php://stderr', 'w'); fwrite($err, "stderr test\n"); fclose($err); the lines "before" and "after" appear in /var/log/php-fpm/www-error.log, but neither error m
