The recent AWS Summit in NYC saw the announcement of several new services and features by Amazon, including AWS EventBridge, which enables tighter integration between various SaaS services, and the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio Code, which simplifies building and debugging Lambda functions. Additionally, Amazon's support for Fluentbit log forwarder was highlighted as a way to route logs directly to Amazon CloudWatch and Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, allowing for cost-effective search and analytics on Amazon S3 data without provisioning an Elasticsearch cluster.
