Amazon AWS continued the love fest and announced even more fun stuff! First, we have the AWS Mobile Hub that will help developers build, test and monitor mobile applications. The EC2 Container Service received an update with a container registry, CLI and more. CloudWatch Dashboards now allows you to have customized metrics views. Amazon IoT gives us “cloud services for connected devices”. AWS Lambda now supports Python and a host of other improvements. I do want to mention one more article that deserves attention. Down in the “Other Stuff” section, The Next Web reports on the awesomeness that is the Lexus full-size electric car that is made out of cardboard. It may not be really usable or comfortable to sit in, but the amazing detail and styling makes me want to get one.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
