AWS Elemental Inference, a fully managed Artificial Intelligence (AI) service that enables broadcasters and streamers to automatically generate vertical content and highlight clips for mobile and social platforms in real time, is now generally available. The service applies AI capabilities to live and on-demand video in parallel with encoding and helps companies and creators to reach audiences in any format without requiring AI expertise or dedicated production teams.
With Elemental Inference you can process video once and optimize it everywhere—creating main broadcasts while simultaneously generating vertical versions for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Snapchat, and other mobile platforms in parallel with live video. For example, sports broadcasters can automatically generate vertical highlight clips during live games and distribute them to social platforms in real-time, capturing viral moments as they happen rather than hours later.
The service launches with two AI features: vertical video cropping that transforms live and on-demand landscape broadcasts into mobile-optimized formats, and advanced metadata analysis that identifies key moments to generate highlight clips from live content. Using an agentic AI application that requires no prompts or human-in-the-loop intervention, broadcasters can scale content production without adding manual workflows or production staff—the system automatically adapts content for each platform. In beta testing, large media companies achieved 34% or more savings on AI-powered live video workflows compared to using multiple point solutions.
AWS Elemental Inference is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), and Europe (Ireland).

Link: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2026/02/aws-medialive-introduces-srt-listener/
AWS Elemental MediaLive now supports Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) Listener mode for both inputs and outputs. With SRT Listener mode, MediaLive waits for connections rather than initiating them. Upstream sources push live video directly to MediaLive, and downstream systems pull encoded streams on demand. This simplifies network setup by removing the need for complex firewall configurations or static, publicly accessible IP addresses on the source or destination side. SRT Listener mode complements MediaLive's existing SRT Caller mode, giving you full control over which side of the connection initiates the SRT handshake.
SRT Listener mode enables flexible contribution and distribution workflows. On the input side, you can push streams from on-premises encoders or remote production sites, including MediaLive Anywhere deployments, directly to MediaLive in the cloud without coordinating firewall changes with your network team. On the output side, downstream distribution partners can connect to MediaLive and pull encoded streams when ready, without requiring MediaLive to initiate outbound connections. Both SRT Listener inputs and outputs support configurable latency settings and mandatory AES encryption to help ensure content security.
SRT Listener mode is available in all AWS Regions where AWS Elemental MediaLive is offered. To get started, see Setting up an SRT Listener input and Creating SRT outputs in listener mode in the AWS Elemental MediaLive User Guide.

Amazon OpenSearch Service has enhanced Cluster Insights with two new insights — Cluster Overload and Suboptimal Sharding Strategy. Suboptimal Sharding Strategy provides instant visibility into shard imbalances that cause uneven workload distribution, while Cluster Overload surfaces elevated cluster resource utilization that can lead to request throttling or rejections. Both insights come with details of affected resources along with actionable mitigation recommendations.
Previously, identifying resource constraints and shard imbalances required manually correlating multiple metrics and logs, making it difficult to detect issues early. With these new insights, you can proactively monitor cluster health and take timely action.
Suboptimal Sharding Strategy detects shard imbalances caused by indices with too few shards relative to the number of data nodes, or by shards carrying disproportionately large amounts of data compared to others. It identifies the root cause of uneven workload distribution and provides recommendations to help you achieve optimal shard distribution for improved query performance and resource utilization. Similarly, Cluster Overload helps you identify elevated resource utilization, including CPU, memory, disk I/O, disk throughput, and disk utilization that can potentially lead to request throttling or rejections. It also provides scale-up recommendations so you can take timely action to protect your critical workloads.
These new insights are available at no additional cost for OpenSearch version 2.17 or later in all Regions where the OpenSearch UI is available. See the complete list of supported Regions here. To learn more, visit the Cluster Insights documentation or view the complete catalog of available insights.
