AWS SAM CLI now supports AWS CloudFormation Language Extensions, enabling you to reduce duplication in your infrastructure as code (IaC) templates while retaining the full local development workflow. This accelerates your serverless development by letting you define resources once and iterate locally without waiting for cloud deployments. Developers frequently need to define multiple similar resources, such as Lambda functions, DynamoDB tables, or SNS topics, from a single template definition. However, developers who use SAM CLI to build, test, and deploy their serverless applications previously could not process templates that use CloudFormation Language Extensions. This required choosing between reducing templa

Amazon CloudWatch Logs now supports retrieving up to 100,000 results using the Logs Insights query language. Customers can specify the limit in their query using the LIMIT command. Previously, customers were limited to 10,000 results and had to split their queries into smaller time ranges to retrieve all results. With this launch, customers can view a larger set of results and use existing features such as patterns, visualization, and export on the full 100,000 result set. The GetQueryResults API has also been updated to support pagination; each invocation can return up to 10,000 results along with a token that can be used to fetch the next set of results. The increased query result limits are available in all commercial AWS regions. You can execute queries and view up to 100,000 results using the Amazon CloudWatch console, AWS CLI, AWS CDK, and AWS SDKs. To learn more, see the Amazon CloudWatch Logs

Amazon EMR Serverless is now generally available in six additional AWS Regions - Asia Pacific (Hyderabad), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), Asia Pacific (New Zealand), Asia Pacific (Taipei), Asia Pacific (Thailand), and Mexico (Central).

Today, AWS announces that the AWS Partner Central agents now accelerate opportunity creation through natural language conversation. AWS Partner Central agents, released on March 16, 2026, are AI-powered capabilities built on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore that help partners surface pipeline insights, advance deals with next-step recommendations, and identify funding opportunities. With this update, partners create opportunities through a short conversation instead of completing a multi-step form, so partner sales teams spend less time on data entry and more time selling. Partners describe a deal in natural language, upload meeting notes, proposals, or call transcripts (PDF, DOCX, Excel, TXT), or clone an existing opportunity. The agent extracts the information, enriches customer details, and recommends improvements — such as adding missing context, correcting field va

Amazon Connect Cases now supports editing and deleting related items, and deleting cases directly from the agent workspace without administrator help. Agents can update comments, unlink contacts associated with the wrong case, or delete cases opened in error. Agents can also create, edit, and delete custom related items such as orders, returns, and invoices to capture additional case context. Amazon Connect Cases is available in the following AWS regions: US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (London), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Africa (Cape Town). To learn more and get started, visit the Amazon Connect Cases webpage and documentation.

Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for PostgreSQL announces Amazon RDS Extended Support minor versions 11.22-rds.20260224, 12.22-rds.20260224, and 13.23-rds.20260224. We recommend that you upgrade to these versions to fix known security vulnerabilities and bugs in prior versions of PostgreSQL. Amazon RDS Extended Support provides up to three additional years of critical security and bug fixes beyond a major version's end of standard support date, giving you more time to upgrade to a new major version. Learn more about Extended Support in the Amazon RDS User Guide. You can upgrade your databases during scheduled maintenance windows using automatic minor version upgrades. To simplify operations at scale, enable automatic minor ver

Amazon Managed Grafana now supports in-place upgrade from Grafana version 10.4 to 12.4. You can upgrade with just a few clicks from the AWS Console or via AWS SDK or AWS CLI.

AWS Organizations now supports higher quotas for service control policies (SCPs). The maximum number of SCPs that can be attached to a single node (root, OU, or account) has increased from 5 to 10, and the maximum SCP size has increased from 5,120 to 10,240 characters. With these higher quotas, you can write SCPs with finer-grained permissions and conditions, and attach more SCPs per node to build more comprehensive security controls across your organization. These higher quotas are available in all commercial AWS Regions, the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, and the China Regions, and are available automatically to all organizations with no action required. To learn more, see quotas for AWS Organizations in the AWS Organizations User Guide.

AWS announces the public preview of AWS Interconnect — multicloud with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Customers have been adopting multicloud strategies while migrating more applications to the cloud. They do so for many reasons including interoperability requirements, the freedom to choose technology that best suits their needs, and the ability to build and deploy applications on any environment with greater ease and speed. Previously, when interconnecting workloads across multiple cloud service providers (CSPs), customers had to go the route of a ‘do-it-yourself’ multicloud approach, leading to complexities of building and managing global multi-layered networks at scale. AWS Interconnect - multicloud is the first purpose-built product of its kind and a new way of how clouds connect and talk to each other, allowing customers to quickly provision resilient, scalable private connections to other cloud providers. OCI is the latest CSP to adopt the

Amazon CloudFront now supports passthrough mode for mutual TLS (mTLS) viewer authentication, allowing CloudFront to forward client certificates to the origin without verifying the certificates on CloudFront. Customers who already validate client certificates at their origin can now add CloudFront to their existing mTLS infrastructure without changing how or where validation happens. In passthrough mode, customers configure mutual TLS on their CloudFront distribution without setting up a trust store. CloudFront forwards every request along with the client's full certificate chain directly to the origin for authentication. Connection functions, which allow customers to inspect or transform connection-level data at the edge, still run on every request, enabling customers to process or reformat certificate headers before requests reach the origin. Customers benefit from CloudFront's global edge network while maintaining their current mutual TLS authentication architecture.
