Amazon VPC Lattice now supports custom domain names for resource configurations Starting today, VPC Lattice allows you to specify a custom domain name for a resource configuration. Resource configurations enable layer-4 access to resources such as databases, clusters, domain names, etc. across VPCs and accounts. With this feature, you can use resource configurations for cluster-based and TLS-based resources. Resource owners can use this feature by specifying a custom domain for a resource configuration and sharing the resource configuration with consumers. Consumers can then access the resource using the custom domain, with VPC Lattice managing a private hosted zone in the consumer’s VPC. This feature also provides resource owners and consumers control and flexibility over the domains they want to use. Resource owners can use a custom domain owned by them, or AWS, or a third-party. Consumers can use granular controls to choose which domains they want VPC Lattice to manage private hosted zones for. This feature is available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions where VPC Lattice resource configuration is available. For more information, please read our https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/custom-domain-names-for-vpc-lattice-resources/or visit the https://aws.amazon.com/vpc/lattice/ andhttps://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc-lattice/latest/ug/resource-configuration.html.

Amazon ECS announces non-root container support for managed EBS volumes https://aws.amazon.com/ecs/ (ECS) now supports mounting Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes to containers running as non-root users. With this launch, ECS automatically configures the EBS volume’s file system permissions to allow non-root users to read and write data securely, while preserving the root-level ownership of the volume. This enhancement simplifies security-first container deployments by removing the need for manual permission management or custom entrypoint scripts. This feature enhances container security by allowing tasks to run as non-root users, reducing the risk of privilege escalation and unauthorized access to data. Previously, for a container in a task to write to a mounted Amazon EBS volume, it had to run as the root user. ECS now automatically manages EBS volume permissions, simplifying workflows and ensuring that all containers within a task — regardless of user ID — can securely read and write to the mounted volume. This feature is now available in all https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regional-product-services/ where Amazon ECS and Amazon EBS are supported, for EC2, AWS Fargate, and ECS Managed Instances launch types. To learn more, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/ebs-volumes.html in the Amazon ECS Developer Guide.

Amazon CloudFront announces cross-account support for VPC origins Amazon CloudFront announces cross-account support for Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) origins, enabling customers to access VPC origins that reside in different AWS accounts from their CloudFront distributions. With VPC origins, customers can have their Application Load Balancers (ALB), Network Load Balancers (NLB), and EC2 Instances in a private subnet that is accessible only through their CloudFront distributions. With the support for cross-account VPC origins in CloudFront, customers can now leverage the security benefits of VPC origins while maintaining their existing multi-account architecture. Customers set up multiple AWS accounts for better security isolation, cost management, and compliance. Previously, customers could access origins in private VPCs from CloudFront only if CloudFront and the origin were in the same AWS account. This meant customers who had their origins in multiple AWS accounts, had to keep their accounts in public subnets to get the scale and performance benefits of CloudFront. Customers then had to maintain additional security controls, such as access control lists (ACL), at both the edge and within regions, rather than benefiting from the inherent security of VPC origins. Now, customers can use https://aws.amazon.com/ram/ to allow CloudFront access to origins in private VPCs in different AWS accounts, both within and outside their AWS Organizations and organizational units (OUs). This streamlines security management and reduces operational complexity, making it easy to use CloudFront as the single front door for applications. VPC origins is available in AWS Commercial Regions only, and the full list of supported AWS Regions is available https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/private-content-vpc-origins.html#vpc-origins-supported-regions. There is no additional cost for using cross-account VPC origins with CloudFront.

Amazon FSx now integrates with AWS Secrets Manager for enhanced management of Active Directory credentials Amazon FSx now integrates with AWS Secrets Manager, enabling enhanced protection and management of the Active Directory domain service account credentials for your FSx for Windows File Server file systems and FSx for NetApp ONTAP Storage Virtual Machines (SVMs). Previously, if you wanted to join your FSx for Windows file system or FSx for ONTAP SVM to your Active Directory domain for user authentication and access control, you needed to specify the username and password for your service account in the Amazon FSx Console, Amazon FSx API, AWS CLI, or AWS CloudFormation. With this launch, you can now specify an AWS Secrets Manager secret containing the service account credentials, enabling you to strengthen your security posture by eliminating the need to store plain text credentials in application code or configuration files, and aligning with best practices for credential management. Additionally, you can use AWS Secrets Manager to rotate your Active Directory credentials and consume them when needed in FSx workloads. You can now use AWS Secrets Manager to store your domain join service credentials for all FSx for Windows file systems and FSx for ONTAP Storage Virtual Machines in https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regional-product-services/ where they are available. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/fsx/latest/WindowsGuide/what-is.html and https://docs.aws.amazon.com/fsx/latest/ONTAPGuide/getting-started.html.

Amazon CloudWatch Application Signals adds AI-powered Synthetics debugging https://github.com/awslabs/mcp/tree/main/src/cloudwatch-appsignals-mcp-server for Application Performance Monitoring (APM) now integrates CloudWatch Synthetics canary monitoring directly into its audit framework, enabling automated, AI-powered debugging of synthetic monitoring failures. DevOps teams and developers can now use natural language questions like 'Why is my checkout canary failing?' in compatible AI assistants such as Amazon Q, Claude, or other supported assistants to utilize the new AI-powered debugged capabilities and quickly distinguish between canary infrastructure issues and actual service problems, addressing the significant challenge of extensive manual analysis in maintaining reliable synthetic monitoring. The integration extends Application Signals' existing multi-signal (services, operations, SLOs, golden signals) analysis capabilities to include comprehensive canary diagnostics. The new feature automatically correlates canary failures with service health metrics, traces, and dependencies through an intelligent audit pipeline. Starting from natural language prompts from users, the system performs multi-layered diagnostic analysis across six major areas: Network Issues, Authentication Failures, Performance Problems, Script Errors, Infrastructure Issues, and Service Dependencies. This analysis includes automated comparison of HTTP Archive or HAR files, CloudWatch logs analysis, S3 artifact examination, and configuration validation, significantly reducing the time needed to identify and resolve synthetic monitoring issues. Customers can then access these insights through natural language interactions with supported AI assistants. This feature is available in all commercial AWS regions where https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/CloudWatch_Synthetics_Canaries.html is offered. Customers will need access to a compatible AI agent such as Amazon Q, Claude, or other supported AI assistants to utilize the AI-powered debugging capabilities. To learn more about implementing AI-based debugging for your synthetic monitoring, visit the https://github.com/awslabs/mcp/tree/main/src/cloudwatch-appsignals-mcp-server#readme
