AWS Quick apps are now available in Asia Pacific (Singapore)

The AWS Quick desktop app for macOS and Windows and the Quick mobile app for iOS and Android are now available in the Asia Pacific (Singapore) Region. This launch builds on the recent availability of Quick in Singapore.
The desktop app works with your local files and connects to your calendar, email, and business apps. The mobile app lets you chat with Quick, review your activity feed, and open dashboards. Your conversations, context, and agents stay in sync across web, desktop, and mobile, so you can start an agent on your desktop, check on it from your phone, and let it keep running after you close your computer. 
To get started, download the desktop app from the AWS Quick download page or the mobile app from the Apple App Store or Google Play. To learn more, see AWS Quick on mobile in the AWS Quick User Guide and the AWS Quick product page.

Amazon EKS Auto Mode now supports security groups for Pods

Amazon EKS Auto Mode now supports security groups for Pods, letting you apply dedicated Amazon EC2 security group rules to individual Pods. Different workloads on the same node can carry different security groups, giving your Pods network-level segmentation without creating separate node pools for each application.
Security groups for Pods extends your existing AWS network controls to the Pod level, so your Pods can reach resources such as Amazon RDS and Amazon ElastiCache databases that authorize connections by security group under the same rules the rest of your VPC uses. You define which Pods receive which security groups with a SecurityGroupPolicy resource, and Pods not matched by a policy keep using their node’s security groups.
Security groups for Pods is included as part of EKS Auto Mode at no additional charge and is available on clusters running Kubernetes version 1.36 or later, in all AWS Regions where EKS Auto Mode is supported. To learn more, see Security groups for Pods in the Amazon EKS User Guide and the Amazon EKS Auto Mode product page.

AWS Lambda MicroVMs now supports the x86 CPU architecture

AWS Lambda MicroVMs now supports the x86 CPU architecture, so you can run your existing x86 applications, tools, and software dependencies without recompiling or porting them. When you create a MicroVM image, you can now choose between x86 and Arm (AWS Graviton) to give each user or job an isolated MicroVM on the architecture your workload uses.
Lambda MicroVMs is a serverless compute primitive that provides VM-level isolation, near-instant launch and resume, and state preservation for running user or AI-generated code, in applications such as AI coding assistants, CI/CD runners, interactive development environments, and vulnerability scanners. Today’s launch enables you to run x86-based workloads on Lambda MicroVMs as-is. For workloads that run on Arm, you can continue using AWS Graviton processors which is the default CPU architecture option.
To start building x86 workloads on Lambda MicroVMs, choose the x86 architecture when you create a MicroVM image from your Dockerfile, then launch MicroVMs from that image. You can use MicroVMs through the AWS Lambda console, AWS CloudFormation, AWS Cloud Development Kit, or with your preferred agentic development tools using the Agent Toolkit for AWS.
Support for the x86 CPU architecture is available in all AWS Regions where Lambda MicroVMs is available, except Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), Asia Pacific (Thailand), and Europe (Spain). To learn more, visit the AWS Lambda MicroVMs developer guide. For information on pricing, see Lambda MicroVMs pricing.

Amazon RDS Extended Support provides up to three additional years of fixes for critical Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) and bugs beyond a major version’s end of standard support date, giving you more time to upgrade to a new major version.
You can upgrade your database using Amazon RDS Blue/Green Deployments, in-place upgrade, or restore from a snapshot. Learn more about performing version upgrades in the Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL User Guide.
Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL makes it simple to set up, operate, and scale PostgreSQL deployments in the cloud. Create or update a fully managed Amazon RDS database in the Amazon RDS Management Console or by using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI).

Amazon RDS for MySQL 26.10 is now available in Amazon RDS Database Preview Environment

Starting today, Amazon RDS for MySQL 26.10 is available in the Amazon RDS Database Preview Environment, allowing you to evaluate the pre-release of MySQL 26.10 on Amazon RDS for MySQL.
MySQL 26.10 includes bug fixes, security patches, and some improvements to READ COMMITTED workload performance and purge lag warnings in the error log. On busy READ COMMITTED workloads, NUMA systems performance could be impacted as each read view that closed required a global mutex. Read-view objects can now be reused which eliminates the global mutex on closure. The error log now reports warnings when the history-list length (HLL) crosses innodb_max_purge_lag and when purge lag begins delaying DML, so you can detect purge backlogs before they affect performance. To learn more, please refer to the MySQL 26.10 release notes.
Amazon RDS Database Preview Environment database instances are retained for a maximum period of 60 days and are automatically deleted after the retention period. Amazon RDS database snapshots that are created in the Preview Environment can only be used to create or restore database instances within the Preview Environment. Amazon RDS Database Preview Environment database instances are priced as per the pricing in the US East (Ohio) Region.
