What’s New in January 2022
Update: 2022-02-08
Description
In this month's episode Arjen, JM, and Guy discuss the news from January 2022. Well, everything announced after re:Invent really, but that's mostly from January. There are good announcements all over; from a new Console Home to unpronounceable instance types, but there is also some news around the podcast that's either good or bad depending on how you interpret it.
