DynamoDB Streams now supports AWS PrivateLink for FIPS endpoints in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions

Amazon DynamoDB Streams now supports AWS PrivateLink for FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) endpoints in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. DynamoDB Streams captures time-ordered sequences of item-level modifications in DynamoDB tables, enabling real-time data processing and event-driven architectures. This enhancement allows government agencies and organizations with federal compliance requirements to establish private connectivity between their VPCs and DynamoDB Streams FIPS endpoints without exposing traffic to the public internet.
This capability helps customers meet strict federal compliance and regulatory requirements while simplifying their network architecture. By keeping all traffic within the AWS network infrastructure, organizations can securely process real-time data streams, implement compliant change data capture (CDC) solutions, and build event-driven architectures that adhere to federal security standards. Government agencies operating in GovCloud regions can now leverage DynamoDB Streams for secure data streaming applications while maintaining the enhanced security and privacy that AWS PrivateLink provides.
AWS PrivateLink support for DynamoDB Streams FIPS endpoints is available in AWS GovCloud (US-East) and AWS GovCloud (US-West) Regions, as well as US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), and Canada West (Calgary).
 To learn more, visit the Amazon DynamoDB Streams PrivateLink documentation and the AWS PrivateLink page.

The next generation of Amazon OpenSearch Serverless is now generally available

Today, AWS announced the general availability of the next generation of Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, a fully managed search and vector engine designed for customers building agents. The next generation of OpenSearch Serverless auto scales 20x faster than its predecessor and provisions resources in seconds to meet the demands of even the most unpredictable agentic workflows. With scale-to-zero and pay-per-usage pricing, customers can now save up to 60% compared to the cost of provisioning Opensearch clusters for peak loads. The next generation of OpenSearch Serverless introduces complete decoupling of compute and storage through a new shared storage layer. This means customers can scale compute up and down independently, reducing costs during low-traffic periods while maintaining instant readiness for traffic spikes. To simplify network connectivity, OpenSearch Serverless now offers two resource-based endpoints – a collection level endpoint and a regional endpoint which makes multi-VPC and on-premise connectivity straightforward using standard VPC APIs. The next generation of OpenSearch Serverless also launches with native integrations with AI development platforms including Vercel and Kiro, enabling developers to provision search infrastructure directly from their development environment using natural language commands. OpenSearch Serverless is now also part of OpenSearch Agent Skills that allows you to bring OpenSearch capabilities to your agents when using popular coding platfroms like Claude Code, Cursor and Codex. At GA, search and vector are the two available collection types. The next generation of OpenSearch Serverless is available today in all commercial AWS regions where Amazon OpenSearch Serverless is currently available. For pricing details about the next generation of OpenSearch Serverless, visit the pricing page. To learn more about the next generation of Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, see the marketing page, technical documentation and AWS News Blog. You can get started by visiting the technical launch blog that details all the new features launching in the next generation of Amazon OpenSearch Serverless.

Claude Opus 4.8 is now available on AWS

AWS  now offers Claude Opus 4.8 — Anthropic’s most capable generally available model to date — delivering meaningful advances across agentic coding, professional knowledge work, and long-running autonomous tasks for developers and enterprises building production AI applications.
Claude Opus 4.8 can perform longer autonomous runs, deeper reasoning, and consistency to be trusted with production work. For coding, the Opus 4.8 reads codebases like an engineer, plans before it edits, and holds context across long sessions in real repositories. For agentic tasks, it is better at finding paths around obstacles instead of stalling, recovering from its own errors, and knowing when to ask for help versus when to keep going. For knowledge work, it better synthesizes across long documents and complex sources, self-checks its output, and delivers structured deliverables that hold up to review.
Customers have two ways to access Claude Opus 4.8: Amazon Bedrock and Claude Platform on AWS.
Amazon Bedrock keeps your data within AWS infrastructure and provides access to Claude Opus 4.8 through a unified service with AWS-managed features like Guardrails, Knowledge Bases, and regional data residency. To learn more, see Amazon Bedrock documentation  and regional availability..
Claude Platform on AWS gives you direct access to Anthropic’s native platform experience and capabilities via the AWS Console. Build, test, and deploy with the same APIs, features, and console experience you’d get working with Anthropic directly, unified with AWS billing and authentication. To get started, see the Claude Platform on AWS documentation

Amazon Connect Customer expands generative AI-powered post-contact summaries to eight new languages

Amazon Connect Customer now supports generative AI-powered post-contact summaries in eight additional language families: Portuguese, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Post-contact summaries also now support non-US variations of English, including British English, Australian English, and other regional locales, ensuring summaries reflect locally appropriate spelling and terminology.
Generative AI-powered post-contact summaries provide agents and managers with concise, structured overviews of customer conversations across voice, chat, and email channels, eliminating the need to read full transcripts. With this expansion, organizations can automatically generate summaries in the language of the conversation, helping agents complete after-contact work faster and enabling managers to review contacts across languages. For example, a global support organization can now generate post-contact summaries for calls handled in French, German, or Japanese, giving supervisors visibility into service quality across all regions.
The newly supported languages are available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Connect Customer post-contact summaries are available. To learn more, refer to View generative AI-powered post-contact summaries in the Amazon Connect Customer Administrator Guide. To learn more about Amazon Connect Customer, visit the Amazon Connect Customer website.

AWS Organizations emits CloudTrail events for account membership changes

AWS Organizations now automatically emits CloudTrail events to your management account whenever accounts join or leave your organization. These new events—AccountJoinedOrganization and AccountDepartedOrganization—provide security teams and cloud administrators with enhanced visibility into organizational membership changes, helping detect unauthorized activities and potential security incidents that previously could go unnoticed. 
The AccountJoinedOrganization event captures how an account joined an organization (Created or Invited) and the join timestamp, while the AccountDepartedOrganization event records how an account departed —Left for accounts that departed voluntarily, Removed for accounts removed by the management account, or  Cleaned for accounts that were permanently closed along with the departure timestamp. 
You can leverage these events to create CloudWatch alarms or Amazon EventBridge rules for real-time notifications, enabling rapid response to suspicious organizational changes. This capability supports critical use cases including fraud detection, compliance auditing, security monitoring, and incident investigation across your AWS environment.
