Feed: Recent Announcements. You now can use AWS CloudTrail to filter and retrieve Amazon DynamoDB Streams data-plane API activity, giving you more granular control over which DynamoDB API calls you want to selectively log and pay for in CloudTrail and to help address compliance and auditing requirements. Data plane events provide visibility into the data plane resource operations performed on or within a resource. You now can specify AWS::DynamoDB::Stream as a resource type, so that you can exercise granular control over logging of streams events and non-streams events for DynamoDB. For example, you can log only DynamoDB Stream APIs to ... Read More

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. 1. Introduction Recently I have been tasked to familiarize myself with the Foreign Data Wrapper (FDW) interface API to build a new FDW capable of doing vertical / columnar sharding, meaning that the FDW is capable of collecting column information from multiple sources and combine them together as a result query. I will document and blog about the vertical sharding in later posts. Now, in this blog, I would like to share some of the key findings and understanding of FDW interface related to foreign scan. 2. Scan-related API Routines FDW foreign scan API routines have some ... Read More

Feed: AWS Compute Blog. Author: Eric Johnson. Configuring cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) settings for a backend server is a typical challenge that developers face when building web applications. CORS is a layer of security enforced by modern browsers and is required when the client domain does not match the server domain. The complexity of CORS often leads developers to abandon it entirely by allowing all-access with the proverbial “*” permissions setting. However, CORS is an essential part of your application’s security posture and should be correctly configured. This post explains how to configure CORS on Amazon API Gateway resources to ... Read More
