AWS AppFabric wants to make pulling your SaaS apps together much easier

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has unveiled a new, no-code tool that it hopes will bring together all of your different software-as-a-service products together in one place, with added security and management benefits.

The new AppFabric tool lives inside the AWS Management Console, where IT and security teams can review a variety of important information in one central location.

At the same time, AWS also uncovered some of its generative AI plans for AppFabric, which are set to arrive in a future release.

AWS AppFabric

AWS claims some companies are subscribing to more than 100 pieces of software in an effort to give their workers the right tools. 

From launch, the company has confirmed that some of the most popular applications will be supported, including Asana, Dropbox, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, and Zoom.

Citing each app’s distinct controls, logs, and interfaces, AWS hopes that AppFabric can bring all of this key information into one centralized location, and under one easy-to-digest layout. 

The company said in a press release: “Utilizing this framework, IT and security professionals can analyze data more easily and set common policies, alerts, and a unified set of rules spanning multiple SaaS applications.”

AWS AppFabric is generally available in the company’s US East (N. Virginia), Europe (Ireland), and Asia Pacific (Tokyo) regions, with more to follow “soon.”

In the meantime, AWS continues to work on an Amazon Bedrock-powered generative AI tool that is designed to work across a company’s SaaS tools to reduce the time wasted flicking between apps.

Already testing AppFabric is Israel’s largest bank, Bank Leumi, among a handful of other companies. AWS hopes that with general availability now here, more companies can get on board by amalgamating their SaaS apps.

Microsoft, Google, and Meta have borrowed EV tech for the next big thing in data centers: 1MW watercooled racks

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Liquid cooling isn't optional anymore, it's the only way to survive AI's thermal onslaught The jump to 400VDC borrows heavily from electric vehicle supply chains and design logic Google’s TPU supercomputers now run at gigawatt scale with 99.999% uptime As demand for artificial intelligence workloads intensifies, the physical infrastructure of data centers is undergoing rapid and radical transformation. The likes of Google, Microsoft, and Meta are now drawing on technologies initially developed for electric vehicles (EVs), particularly 400VDC systems, to address the dual challenges of high-density power delivery and thermal management. The emerging vision is of data center racks capable of delivering up to 1 megawatt of power, paired with liquid cooling systems engineered to manage the resulting heat. Borrowing EV technology for data center evolution The shift to 400VDC power distribution marks a decisive break from legacy sy...

Google’s AI Mode can explain what you’re seeing even if you can’t

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Google’s AI Mode now lets users upload images and photos to go with text queries The feature combines Google Gemini and Lens AI Mode can understand entire scenes, not just objects Google is adding a new dimension to its experimental AI Mode by connecting Google Lens's visual abilities with Gemini . AI Mode is a part of Google Search that can break down complex topics, compare options, and suggest follow-ups. Now, that search includes uploaded images and photos taken on your smartphone. The result is a way to search through images the way you would text but with much more complex and detailed answers than just putting a picture into reverse image search. You can literally snap a photo of a weird-looking kitchen tool and ask, “What is this, and how do I use it?” and get a helpful answer, complete with shopping links and YouTube demos. AI Eyes If you take a picture of a bookshelf, a plate of food, or the chaotic interior of your junk...

Passing the torch to a new era of open source technology

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The practice of developing publicly accessible technologies and preventing monopolies of privately-owned, closed-source infrastructure was a pivotal technological movement in the 1990s and 2000s. The open source software movement was viewed at the time as a form of ‘digital civil duty’, democratizing access to technology. However, while the movement's ethos underpins much of today’s technological landscape, its evolution has proven to be a challenge for its pioneers. Hurdles Facing Young Developers Open source models successfully paved a path for the development of a multitude of technologies, cultivating a culture of knowledge sharing, collaboration , and community along the way. Unfortunately, monetizing such projects has always been a challenge, and ensuring contributors are compensated for their contributions working on them, even more so. On the other hand, closed-source projects offer greater control, security, and competitive advant...
