AWS What's New

Amazon MQ now supports certificate based authentication with mutual TLS for RabbitMQ brokers

Amazon MQ now supports the ability for RabbitMQ brokers to perform authentication (determining who can log in) using X.509 client certificates with mutual TLS (mTLS). The RabbitMQ auth_mechanism_ssl plugin can be configured on brokers running RabbitMQ version 4.2 and above on Amazon MQ by making changes to the associated configuration file.

To start using certificate based authentication on Amazon MQ, simply select RabbitMQ 4.2 when creating a new broker using the M7g instance type through the AWS Management console, AWS CLI, or AWS SDKs, and then edit the associated configuration file with the required values. To learn more about the plugin, see the Amazon MQ release notes and the Amazon MQ developer guide. This plugin is available in all regions where Amazon MQ RabbitMQ 4 instances are available today. 

Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) is Now Available in the Asia Pacific (Jakarta) Region

Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) is now available in the Asia Pacific (Jakarta) region adding to the list of available regions where you can use Amazon DocumentDB.

Amazon DocumentDB is a fully managed, native JSON database that makes it simple and cost-effective to operate critical document workloads at virtually any scale without managing infrastructure. Amazon DocumentDB is designed to give you the scalability and durability you need when operating mission-critical MongoDB workloads. Storage scales automatically up to 128TiB without any impact to your application. In addition, Amazon DocumentDB natively integrates with AWS Database Migration Service(DMS), Amazon CloudWatch, AWS CloudTrail, AWS Lambda, AWS Backup and more. Amazon DocumentDB supports millions of requests per second and can be scaled out to 15 low latency read replicas in minutes with no application downtime.

To learn more about Amazon DocumentDB, please visit the Amazon DocumentDB product page and pricing page.

You can create a Amazon DocumentDB cluster from the AWS Management console, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or SDK.

Amazon EC2 R8i and R8i-flex instances are now available in additional AWS regions

Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) R8i and R8i-flex instances are available in the Asia Pacific (Mumbai, Hyderabad) and Europe (Paris) regions. These instances are powered by custom Intel Xeon 6 processors, available only on AWS, delivering the highest performance and fastest memory bandwidth among comparable Intel processors in the cloud. The R8i and R8i-flex instances offer up to 15% better price-performance, and 2.5x more memory bandwidth compared to previous generation Intel-based instances. They deliver 20% higher performance than R7i instances, with even higher gains for specific workloads. They are up to 30% faster for PostgreSQL databases, up to 60% faster for NGINX web applications, and up to 40% faster for AI deep learning recommendation models compared to R7i.

R8i-flex, our first memory-optimized Flex instances, are the easiest way to get price performance benefits for a majority of memory-intensive workloads. They offer the most common sizes, from large to 16xlarge, and are a great first choice for applications that don't fully utilize all compute resources.

R8i instances are a great choice for all memory-intensive workloads, especially for workloads that need the largest instance sizes or continuous high CPU usage. R8i instances offer 13 sizes including 2 bare metal sizes and the new 96xlarge size for the largest applications. R8i instances are SAP-certified and deliver 142,100 aSAPS, delivering exceptional performance for mission-critical SAP workloads.

To get started, sign in to the AWS Management Console. For more information about the R8i and R8i-flex instances visit the AWS News blog.

Amazon Quick adds third-party AI agents and expands built-in actions library

Amazon Quick is expanding its third-party integrations by adding AI agents and growing its built-in actions library. Quick is Amazon's new AI-powered workspace and agentic teammate that helps organizations get answers from their business data and move quickly from insights to action. As organizations navigate newly adopted AI agents and work with existing enterprise tools for CRM, support, collaboration, and more, users face fragmented experiences. Users are forced to switch between different interfaces, repeat context, and manually stitch together outputs. Quick enables users to work with third-party agents and enterprise tools from a single interface, eliminating the wasted time and cognitive load of constantly switching between applications.

With Quick, business users can now invoke specialized agents from Box, Canva, and PagerDuty to accomplish chat and automation tasks. For example, you can pull incident insights from PagerDuty, generate a presentation in Canva, and query documents stored in Box - all directly from Quick. Additionally, Quick has expanded its built-in actions to include integrations with GitHub, Notion, Canva, Box, Linear, Hugging Face, Monday.com, HubSpot, Intercom, and more. This enables Quick users to accomplish tasks like creating GitHub issues, summarizing meeting notes in Notion, managing their CRM, and more. Beyond our new built-in integrations, customers can continue to leverage custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) and OpenAPI connectors to connect Quick to thousands of additional applications.

These features are now available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Quick is available. To learn more, visit the Amazon Quick Supported Integrations Guide and Integration Specific Guide.

Amazon EC2 M8i instances are now available in additional AWS Regions

Starting today, Amazon EC2 M8i instances are now available in Europe (Frankfurt) and Asia Pacific (Malaysia) Regions. These instances are powered by custom Intel Xeon 6 processors, available only on AWS, delivering the highest performance and fastest memory bandwidth among comparable Intel processors in the cloud. The M8i offer up to 15% better price-performance, and 2.5x more memory bandwidth compared to previous generation Intel-based instances. They deliver up to 20% better performance than M7i instances, with even higher gains for specific workloads. The M8i instances are up to 30% faster for PostgreSQL databases, up to 60% faster for NGINX web applications, and up to 40% faster for AI deep learning recommendation models compared to M7i instances.

M8i instances are a great choice for all general purpose workloads, especially for workloads that need the largest instance sizes or continuous high CPU usage. The SAP-certified M8i instances offer 13 sizes including 2 bare metal sizes and the new 96xlarge size for the largest applications.

To get started, sign in to the AWS Management Console. For more information about the new instances, visit the M8i instance page or visit the AWS News blog.

AWS Lambda adds support for .NET 10

AWS Lambda now supports creating serverless applications using .NET 10. Developers can use .NET 10 as both a managed runtime and a container base image, and AWS will automatically apply updates to the managed runtime and base image as they become available.

.NET 10 is the latest long-term support release of .NET and is expected to be supported for security and bug fixes until November 2028. This release provides Lambda developers with access to the latest .NET features, including file-based apps. It also includes support for Lambda Managed Instances, enabling you to run Lambda functions on Amazon EC2 instances while maintaining serverless operational simplicity, providing cost efficiency and specialized compute options. Powertools for AWS Lambda (.NET), a developer toolkit to implement serverless best practices and increase developer velocity, also supports .NET 10. You can use the full range of AWS deployment tools, including the Lambda console, AWS CLI, AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM), AWS CDK, and AWS CloudFormation to deploy and manage serverless applications written in .NET 10.

The .NET 10 runtime is available in all Regions, including the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions and China Regions.
