ECS Exec is now available in the AWS Management Console

The Amazon ECS console now supports ECS Exec, enabling you to open secure, interactive shell access directly from the AWS Management Console to any running container.

ECS customers often need to access running containers to debug applications and examine running processes. ECS Exec provides easy and secure access to running containers without requiring inbound ports or SSH key management. Previously, ECS Exec was only accessible through the AWS API, CLI, or SDKs, requiring customers to switch interfaces when troubleshooting in the console. With this new feature, customers can now connect to running containers directly from the AWS Management Console, streamlining troubleshooting workflows.

To get started, you can turn on ECS Exec directly in the console when creating or updating services and standalone tasks. Additional settings like encryption and logging can also be configured at the cluster level through the console. Once enabled, simply navigate to a task details page, select a container, and click «Connect» to open an interactive session through CloudShell. The console also displays the underlying AWS CLI command, which you can customize or copy to use in your local terminal.

ECS Exec console support is now available in all AWS commercial regions. To learn more, visit the ECS developer guide.

São Paulo, 04 de setembro de 2025 – O Bank of Queensland, instituição australiana que atende 1,4 milhão de clientes, implementou soluções de inteligência artificial para aprimorar a análise de riscos e aumentar a eficiência operacional. A colaboração com pesquisadores da Microsoft resultou em um estudo inovador sobre o impacto do Copilot, assistente de IA, no desempenho dos analistas no banco. O banco testou o uso do Copilot, ferramenta baseada em IA generativa, para acelerar o processo de análise de causa raiz, essencial para identificar falhas e melhorar a experiência dos clientes.

“Esse processo é essencial para manter altos padrões de satisfação do cliente e excelência operacional”, afirma Bernadette Demasi, Head de Programas de Parceria da área de Tecnologia do Grupo no Bank of Queensland.

O estudo envolveu dois grupos: um com acesso ao Copilot e outro sem. Ambos foram desafiados a analisar um caso de risco simulado de atrasos na aprovação de empréstimos e identificar os fatores que contribuíram para o problema. Os resultados foram expressivos: os analistas que utilizaram o Copilot concluíram a tarefa 51,8% mais rápido do que os demais, com qualidade superior e maior clareza nas análises.

Além da velocidade, mais de um terço dos analistas com Copilot consideraram a tarefa menos exaustiva, e 93% afirmaram que a ferramenta melhorou a qualidade da análise e reduziu o esforço. Todos os participantes com acesso à IA disseram que não gostariam de realizar esse tipo de tarefa sem o Copilot no futuro.

“Adicionar capacidade por meio da IA nos permite superar limitações de recursos e dá às nossas equipes mais tempo para focar em trabalhos de maior valor”, complementa Bernadette.

O estudo reforça a importância de oferecer orientação direcionada para o uso da IA, com desenvolvimento de prompts específicos e suporte contínuo às equipes. Para alcançar os melhores resultados, é fundamental orientar as equipes na adoção da tecnologia, promovendo o uso estratégico e ampliando as possibilidades de aplicação da inteligência artificial no ambiente corporativo.

Sobre a Microsoft

A Microsoft (Nasdaq “MSFT” @microsoft) cria plataformas e ferramentas alimentadas por IA para fornecer soluções inovadoras que atendam às crescentes necessidades dos clientes. A empresa de tecnologia está empenhada em disponibilizar amplamente a IA e fazê-la de forma responsável, com a missão de capacitar cada pessoa e cada organização no planeta a conquistar mais.

Una forma más inteligente de hablar con su televisor: Microsoft Copilot se lanza en televisores y monitores Samsung

Imagen de una televisión que muestra diferentes opciones de experiencias de usuarios

Por: Equipo de Copilot.

La IA impulsada por voz se encuentra con un compañero visual para el entretenimiento, la ayuda diaria y todo lo demás.

Anunciamos el lanzamiento de Copilot en televisores y monitores Samsung seleccionados, para transformar la pantalla más grande de su hogar en su compañero más personal y útil, y es de uso gratuito.  

Copilot hace que su televisor sea más fácil y divertido de usar con su interfaz impulsada por voz, su personaje amigable en pantalla y sus sencillas tarjetas visuales. Ahora pueden encontrar con rapidez lo que buscan y descubrir nuevos favoritos directo desde su sala de estar.   

Debido a que vive en la pantalla más grande del hogar, Copilot es una experiencia social, algo que pueden usar junto con familiares y amigos para iniciar conversaciones, ayudar a los grupos a decidir qué ver y convertir el televisor en un espacio compartido para la curiosidad y la conexión.

«Copilot en televisores y monitores Samsung saca la IA de su bolsillo y la lleva al corazón de su hogar», dijo David Washington, gerente general de socios de Microsoft AI. «Está ahí cuando ustedes y su familia quieren descubrir algo para ver juntos, obtener respuestas a sus preguntas, planificar su fin de semana o tan solo pasar el rato».

Basado en la asociación

Microsoft y Samsung tienen una larga historia de reunir lo mejor de la tecnología, desde Windows y Office en dispositivos Galaxy hasta Xbox Cloud Gaming en televisores Samsung. Esta colaboración aporta ese mismo espíritu de innovación a Copilot, para hacer que su televisor sea más inteligente, más personal y más divertido.

Para resúmenes, madrigueras de conejo y todo lo demás

Copilot brilla cuando se trata de encontrar su próxima cosa favorita para ver, pero también está ahí para las pequeñas preguntas, los grandes planes y los momentos cotidianos intermedios.

  • Resúmenes personalizados y sin spoilers: «Quiero volver a The Crown, lo dejé en la temporada 3, episodio 4. ¿Qué pasó hasta entonces?»
  • Recomendaciones ultraespecíficas: «Como The Queen’s Gambit, pero sobre cocinar en lugar de ajedrez, y menos de dos horas».  
  • Selecciones para grupos: «A Hannah le gustan las comedias románticas, a David le gusta la ciencia ficción, a Mark le gustan los thrillers. ¿Qué es algo que nos gustará a todos?» Perfecto para cuando todos están reunidos en la sala de estar y quieren decidir juntos.  
  • Inmersiones profundas posteriores a la visualización: «¿Quién fue el actor de voz de ese personaje?» o «¿Qué más ha hecho el director?»
  • Ayuda diaria: «¿Habrá el sábado en Seattle buenas condiciones para hacer senderismo?» o «Anímame después de una ruptura».  

Una experiencia más visual, más personal

La apariencia de Copilot  es una presencia amigable y animada en su televisor que reacciona y sincroniza los labios mientras hablan, con expresiones que coinciden con el tono de la conversación. Es un recordatorio visible de que su compañero los escucha, piensa y responde solo para ustedes. 

Y cuando Copilot responde, no solo se los dice, sino que se los muestra. Los resultados de películas, clima e imágenes aparecen como tarjetas ricas y visibles diseñadas para la pantalla grande, con calificaciones, fotos y detalles clave. 

Cómo funciona

  1. Activar Copilot: Copilot se implementará en automático en televisores Samsung seleccionados. Los usuarios pueden ver Copilot (en la pestaña Aplicaciones) en el Samsung Tizen OS home Samsung Daily+. Presionen el botón del micrófono en su control remoto Samsung y hablen con naturalidad. 
  2. (Opcional) Inicien sesión para un toque personal: usen un código QR rápido para conectar su cuenta de Microsoft y desbloquear la personalización, la memoria y las preferencias de Copilot por ustedes.  
  3. Pidan lo que quieren: Ya sea un título, una pregunta o un consejo, Copilot los entiende.
  4. Vean y escuchen su respuesta: vean cómo Copilot responde con una combinación de imágenes y voz.

Amazon SageMaker Catalog adds support for governed classification with restricted terms

Amazon SageMaker Catalog now supports governed classification through Restricted Classification Terms, allowing catalog administrators to control which users and projects can apply sensitive glossary terms to their assets. This new capability is designed to help organizations enforce metadata standards and ensure classification consistency across teams and domains.

With this launch, glossary terms can be marked as «restricted», and only authorized users or groups—defined through explicit policies—can use them to classify data assets. For example, a centralized data governance team may define terms like “Seller-MCF” or “PII” that reflect data handling policies. These terms can now be governed so only specific project members (e.g., trusted admin groups) can apply them, which helps support proper control over how sensitive classifications are assigned.

This feature is now available in all AWS regions where Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio is supported.

To get started and learn more about this feature, see SageMaker Unified Studio user guide.

Amazon Bedrock now supports Global Cross-Region inference for Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4

Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet 4 is now available with Global cross-Region inference in Amazon Bedrock, so you can now use the Global Claude Sonnet 4 inference profile to route your inference requests to any supported commercial AWS Region for processing, optimizing available resources and enabling higher model throughput.

Amazon Bedrock is a comprehensive, secure, and flexible service for building generative AI applications and agents. When using on-demand and batch inference in Amazon Bedrock, your requests may be restricted by service quotas or during peak usage times. Cross-region inference enables you to seamlessly manage unplanned traffic bursts by utilizing compute across different AWS Regions. With cross-region inference, you can distribute traffic across multiple AWS Regions, enabling higher throughput. Previously, you were able to choose cross-region inference profiles tied to a specific geography such as the US, EU, or APAC, which automatically selected the optimal commercial AWS Region within that geography to process your inference requests. For your generative AI use cases that do not require you to choose inference profiles tied to a specific geography, you can now use the Global cross-region inference profile to further increase your model throughput.

To learn more about global cross-Region inference in Amazon Bedrock, you can visit our documentation on increasing throughput with cross-Region inference, see supported Regions and models for inference profiles, and follow the steps mentioned in the Use an inference profile in model invocation page to get started.
