AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) now makes it easier to create and configure IAM roles directly within service workflows, allowing you to customize role permissions without switching between browser tabs. Now, when you are performing console tasks that involve role configuration, a new panel will appear to set the permissions required. IAM roles enable secure AWS cross-service connections using temporary credentials, eliminating the need for hardcoded access keys. This launch integrates role creation capabilities with custom permissions directly into service workflows, allowing you to configure roles and permissions without navigating to the IAM console. You can use default policies or the simplified statement builder to customize your permissions, streamlining your resource setup while maintaining the full functionality of IAM role management. This feature is available when working with Amazon EC2, AWS Lambda, Amaz

Amazon SageMaker HyperPod now offers comprehensive observability for Restricted Instance Groups (RIG), enabling teams training foundation models with Nova Forge to gain deep visibility into their compute resources and training workloads. This new capability eliminates the manual effort of collecting and correlating metrics across the infrastructure stack, providing a unified view of GPU performance, system health, network throughput, and Kubernetes cluster state through a pre-configured Amazon Managed Grafana dashboard backed by Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus. You can now monitor GPU utilization, NVLink bandwidth, CPU pressure, FSx for Lustre usage, and pod lifecycle from a single Grafana dashboard, with metrics collected across four exporters covering GPU performance, host-level system health, network fabric, and Kubernetes object state. In addition, curated logs are automatically made available in these dashboards, covering epoch progress, step-level training logs,

Amazon Lightsail now lets you deploy OpenClaw, a private self-hosted AI assistant, on your own cloud infrastructure in a simple and secure manner. Every Lightsail OpenClaw instance ships with built-in security controls, pre-configured and ready to use. Sandboxing isolates each agent session for improved security posture. One-click HTTPS access puts the OpenClaw dashboard in your browser securely, without requiring manual TLS configuration. Device pairing authentication ensures only your authorized devices can connect to your assistant. Automatic snapshots back up your configuration continuously, so you never lose your setup. Amazon Bedrock serves as the default model provider for Lightsail OpenClaw, and you can swap models or connect to Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Discord as per your requirements. Amazon Lightsail is available in

Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion now supports a unified ingestion endpoint that can accept all three OpenTelemetry observability signals — logs, metrics, and traces — through a single pipeline. Previously, customers who wanted to ingest all three OpenTelemetry data types had to create and manage three separate pipelines, one for each signal type. With this launch, a single pipeline can now receive any combination of OpenTelemetry signals, simplifying pipeline architecture and reducing operational overhead. Customers can now build centralized observability pipelines that consolidate logs, metrics, and traces in one place, making it easier to correlate signals and gain a holistic view of application health. Teams operating at scale can reduce the number of pipelines they manage, lowering infrastructure costs and simplifying access control, monitoring, and lifecycle management. This also makes it easier to adopt OpenTelemetry incrementally as teams can begin with one

Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion now supports Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus  as a sink, making it possible to build fully managed, end-to-end metrics ingestion pipelines without any custom forwarding infrastructure. With this launch, customers can now manage their entire metrics ingestion workflow using the same pipeline infrastructure they already use for logs and traces. Customers can now choose the right destination for each observability signal — sending logs and traces to Amazon OpenSearch Service for powerful full-text search, log analytics, and trace correlation, while routing metrics to Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus for time-series storage and analysis. This flexibility allows teams to build purpose-fit observability pipelines that leverage the strengths of each service without compromising on data fidelity or analytical capability. Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion's built-in data transformation and enrichment capabilities allow customers

We’re excited to announce Amazon GameLift Servers DDoS Protection, a new feature that helps game developers protect session-based multiplayer games that utilize Amazon GameLift Servers to help improve overall game session resiliency. DDoS Protection is designed to defend against denial-of-service (DoS) and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, providing proactive, User Datagram Protocol (UDP)-based traffic protection–without the need for manual byte matching, and with negligible latency added. Amazon GameLift Servers DDoS Protection co-locates a relay network directly alongside your game servers. The relay authenticates client traffic using access tokens so that only authorized traffic reaches the server. The feature also enforces per-player traffic limits to help prevent disruptions, even from seemingly legitimate sources. Game developers can use DDoS Protection to protect against targeted d

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio now supports metadata and context sync across Atlan, Collibra, and Alation. These integrations synchronize catalog metadata between Amazon SageMaker Catalog and each partner platform, giving teams a consistent view of their data and AI assets regardless of which tool they use day to day. Organizations can maintain aligned glossary terms, asset descriptions, and ownership information across platforms without manual reconciliation. All three integrations synchronize key metadata elements including projects, assets, descriptions, glossary terms, and their hierarchies. With the Collibra integration, you can synchronize metadata in both directions between SageMaker Catalog and the partner platform, so updates you make in one are reflected in the other. Also, you can manage SageMaker Unified Studio data access requests from Collibra
