Announcing 15 Free Digital Training Courses on New AWS Services Launched at re:Invent 2018

We are excited to announce the addition of 15 free, new, individually available digital courses to our online training portfolio. Launched at AWS re:Invent 2018, these 10-minute video courses introduce services for machine learning (ML), satellite communications, global services, medical data analytics, and more. These 15 courses are also grouped together in a free new digital curriculum called AWS re:Invent 2018 New Services.

In alphabetical order, here are descriptions of these new courses:

• Introduction to Amazon Comprehend Medical discusses a new service that uses deep learning and natural language processing to extract entities from medical text and notes—which helps you improve patient outcome, provide research insights, and reduce costs.

• Introduction to Amazon CloudWatch Log Insights introduces a new service offering fully managed, highly scalable log analytics capabilities in Amazon CloudWatch.

• Introduction to Amazon Elastic Inference focuses on a new service for Amazon SageMaker and Amazon EC2 that enables you to add hardware acceleration to your ML inference in fractional sizes of a full GPU instance.

• Introduction to Amazon Forecast discusses how this new service improves the accuracy of time-series forecasting by considering additional variables and external factors as opposed to traditional models.

• Introduction to Amazon FSx for Lustre shows how a new service makes it easy and cost-effective for AWS customers to launch and run a Lustre high performance file system for their data-intensive applications.

• Introduction to Amazon FSx for Windows File Server discusses a new service that makes it easy for developers and administrators to launch and use shared file storage for Windows applications.

• Introduction to Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics for Java Applications showcases a new functionality that allows developers to use their own Java code to create powerful real-time applications that process streaming data.
