Most of the announcements were from AWS re:Invent event: https://reinvent.awsevents.com/

Amazon's had their conference, reInvent 2016, going last week

I believe they are having a conference, so that explains the batch of releases in the past week or so.

They had AWS re:Invent 2017 last week, so that is the reason for so many announcements :)
