Is there a current solution for Amazon AWS Connect Voicemail? - amazon-web-services

My company is currently looking to build a power dialer using AWS Amazon Connect but I haven't been able to find support for agent extensions or voicemail. I'm, I going crazy? Someone please point me in the right direction.

We faced similar challenges and after several attempts discovered https://amazonconnectvoicemail.com . It was easy to integrate into our current Amazon Connect instance.

AWS has recently released Voicemail for Amazon Connect, which is deployed using a CloudFormation template.
You only pay for the standard AWS charges that the solution uses, there's no additional platform/service charges.

How to list the AWS services I'm paying for

I'm stuck with the AWS service. I can't find what services are being turned on. I can't find them, even I can't see why the number of services is increasing over time and I am being charged. Please help me.
I have deleted the S3 buckets I started and closed two EFS instances from the AWS console. But still, I am being charged.
You can use aws-nuke to remove resources in your account. Simple to use and support many services.
Have you checked the AWS cost-explorer dashboard? Please check the same and see which services are being charged today. Go and delete them if you are not using them.
If you don't want any AWS service, go and suspend your AWS account. :P

Elasticsearch Cross Cluster Replication (CCR) on Amazon AWS and MS Azure

I am wondering if there is a support for elastic search cross cluster replication on AWS and Azure?
I see AWS announcement where said that they are going to support cross cluster search (don't sure that is tis related to my query though).
Could you please advice if it is supported or are there any news pointing that it might be supported in the nearest future?
Highly appreciate any help.
AWS Elasticsearch doesn't have CCR(Cross Cluster Replication).
However you can achieve (depends on your RTO & RPO) the same by taking manual snapshots into your own S3 there by replicating the data into new Domain.
For more info on manual snapshots , you can go through here
At last Amazon releases new opensearch service for elasticsearch cross cluster replication. Here is announce - https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2021/10/amazon-opensearch-service-amazon-elasticsearch-service-cross-cluster-replication/

AWS-ML: How to deploy/setup my own ML algorithms on AWS platform as pay-to-use API?

The title sums it up. Essentially, I'd like to offer my own closed-source proprietary ML algorithms to Amazon AWS customers on a pay-to-use basis API - e.g., sales volumes prediction algorithm service licensed monthly or annually or per call. Most information found talks about how to build and give it away, or use it internally within one's company, but I'm looking to offer it to the public as a commercial offering on AWS.
Thank you in advance for your help - links to articles, help pages, or direct steps on how to do this.
This is actually very easy to do with AWS.
Create an AWS Marketplace account.
Create an AMI bundled with your software with per hour pricing.
This link will get you started:
Sell on AWS Marketplace
Allow me please to answer my own question. Although not a 100% what I was hoping for, there's certainly support for this in the platform which is great to see: Software-as-a-Service-Based Products
It looks like you need to set up your own EC2 server and then create an API gateway call to invoke your service, and you can create API keys to control access/pricing for your end users.
API Key usage: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/api-gateway-setup-api-key-with-restapi.html
You can also look into AWS Sagemaker to set up your ML pipeline and provide a managed inference endpoint if you don't want to host your own EC2 server, from there can leverage API gateway the same way.

How to Install LAMP on AWS EC2

Amazon 7*24 online support has been so good that why Amazon EC2 has been selected as one of the most common website hosting service, like Magento store.
But AWS EC2 is not as easy as cPanel! That's why I maintain and share my updated experiences in here!
We use Amazon Lunix because we believe we can get a better support from Amazon
This Tutorial has been always updated by Amazon and very helpful

Amazon Kinesis emulator

We are evaluating real-time event processing engines (like twitter storm)
One of the options is recently released Amazon Kinesis.
I'm wondering if there is any sort of emulator/sandbox environment available that would allow to play around with kinesis a bit without the need to set up AWS account and paying for the use of the service
Thank you in advance
I've been using kinesalite for a while now and it seems to work quite well.
Since I don't really like to have node packages into my machine, I've also created a docker image for it.
Hope this helps.
EMR recently launched Kinesis integration for tools in Hadoop ecosystem, you may want to try and see if your usecases can be addressed there. http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2014/02/process-streaming-data-with-kinesis-and-elastic-mapreduce.html
