Amazon Web Services (AWS) today revealed it has extended the capabilities of its generative artificial intelligence (AI) tool. In addition to providing autonomous agents to automate specific tasks, it can now also be used to help migrate multiple types of applications to different platforms, using the Amazon Q Developer service.
Announced at the AWS re:Invent 2024 conference, AWS is previewing tools that automate the process of moving .Net applications from Windows to Linux, convert applications running on VMware into cloud-native applications, and reduce by up to 50% the amount of time required to modernize mainframe applications.
In addition, AWS revealed it is integrating Amazon Q Developer with the Duo AI tools that GitLab has developed to automate DevOps workflows and previewed a capability that enables Amazon Q Developer to investigate issues and incidents, including surfacing remediations. AWS also announced that PagerDuty will be using this capability in the context of its portfolio of IT operations management platforms.
