AWS Transform Goes Offline: Modernize SQL Server to Aurora PostgreSQL Without Live Connection

AWS Transform just dropped offline schema transformation, and it's a game-changer for legacy .NET shops. You can now upload your SQL Server DDL files directly and convert them to Aurora PostgreSQL without needing a live database connection—no more risky cutover windows. The tool handles the heavy lifting: transforms tables, schemas, stored procedures, and even updates your .NET code with new connection strings. Plus, you get synthetic test data generation for validation. It's available in US East (N. Virginia) and works through a web console or your favorite IDE.

AWS Lambda Durable Execution SDK for .NET Goes Live

AWS just dropped the general availability of Lambda Durable Execution SDK for .NET, and C# devs are gonna love this. Build resilient, long-running workflows—think payment pipelines and AI orchestration—without wrestling with custom progress tracking or external services. The SDK handles checkpointing automatically and can pause execution for up to a year while waiting for external events. It's got everything: progress tracking, callback integration for human-in-the-loop workflows, and a local testing emulator so you can debug before going prod. Grab it from NuGet and start building.
