AWS Black Belt Tech Webinar 「AWS Well Architected Program」資料公開 こんにちは、AWSテクニカルトレーナーの鬼形です。2/10に開催した、SA荒木によるAWS Black Belt Tech Webinar「AWS Well Architected Program」の資料が公開されました。先日、AWS Well-Architected Frameworkが発表されましたが、それをわかりやすくまとめたものがこちらの資料となります。また、Webinarでいただいたご質問に関しても掲載しておりますので、是非ご覧ください。 Q&Aは以下の通りです。 Q1: 「勘に頼らない」という文言が何度も出てくるのに驚きました。厳密なサイジングをせずに小さく(または大きく)始めて伸縮できるのがAWSの強みだと思っていましたので。EC2やEBS等のサイジン

Stop the CNAME chain struggle: Simplified management with Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall Updated 2 May 2024: I removed the reference to Route53 Alias that was incorrectly referred as a chain Starting today, you can configure your DNS Firewall to automatically trust all domains in a resolution chain (such as aCNAMEor DNAMEchain). Let’s walk through this in nontechnical terms for those unfamiliar wi

お知らせ： 本ブログ記事でも紹介されているホワイトペーパー"AWS Best Practice for DDoS Resiliency"の日本語訳が公開されました。こちらよりダウンロードできますので是非ご参照ください。 分散型サービス妨害攻撃（DDoS）はネットワークや、システム、アプリケーションを、それらが処理できる以上のトラフィックやコネクション、リクエストにより溢れさせる企てとして有害な攻撃者により時折用いられるものです。 当然のことながら、お客様はしばしばこの種の攻撃から私達がどのようにお客様のアプリケーションを守ることを支援できるのか尋ねられます。 お客様の可用性を最大化する支援をするため、AWSはDDoS対策アーキテクチャーを構築するためにAWSのスケールを活用できるようにするベストプラクティスを提供しています。 これらのベストプラクティスは"AWS Best Practice

Build RAG applications with MongoDB Atlas, now available in Knowledge Bases for Amazon Bedrock Foundational models (FMs) are trained on large volumes of data and use billions of parameters. However, in order to answer customers’ questions related to domain-specific private data, they need to reference an authoritative knowledge base outside of the model’s training data sources. This is commonly ac
