AWS IAM Identity Center now supports IPv6

AWS IAM Identity Center now supports Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) through new dual-stack endpoints. Customers can now connect to AWS IAM Identity Center using IPv6, IPv4, or dual-stack clients. The existing AWS IAM Identity Center endpoints supporting IPv4 remain available for backward compatibility. IAM Identity Center allows customers to enable workforce access to AWS managed applications and AWS accounts. When your client, such as a browsers or an application, makes a request to a dual-stack endpoint, the endpoint resolves to an IPv4 or IPv6 address, depending on the protocol used by your network and client. This launch helps you meet IPv6 compliance requirements, and minimize the need for complex NAT infrastructure. IPv6 support is available in all AWS Regions where IAM Identity Center is available, except the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions and the Taipei Region. To learn more, visit the IAM Identity Center User Guide.

Amazon WorkSpaces announces advanced printer redirection

AWS announces advanced printer redirection for Amazon WorkSpaces Personal, enabling Windows users to access the full feature set of their printers from their virtual desktop environments. With this feature, customers can now use printer-specific capabilities such as double-sided printing, paper tray selection, finishing options (stapling, hole-punching), and color management directly from their Windows WorkSpaces.
Advanced printer redirection addresses the need for specialized printing features that require printer-specific drivers rather than generic drivers. This capability is ideal for organizations with users who need advanced printing features for professional documents, labels, or specialized output. The feature includes configurable driver validation modes (exact match, partial match, or name-only matching) to balance compatibility with feature support, allowing administrators to optimize for their specific environment. When matching drivers are not found, WorkSpaces automatically falls back to basic printing mode, ensuring users can always print.
This feature is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon WorkSpaces Personal is offered. Advanced printer redirection is supported on Windows WorkSpaces with Windows clients only, and requires WorkSpaces Agent version 2.2.0.2116 or later and Windows client version 5.31 or later. Matching printer drivers must be installed on both the WorkSpace and the client device.
For more information about advanced printer redirection in Amazon WorkSpaces, see Configure Printer Support for DCV in the Amazon WorkSpaces Administration Guide, or visit the Amazon WorkSpaces page to learn more about virtual desktop solutions from AWS.

With this launch, sellers can now create and manage AMIs with Amazon FPGA images using a new UI experience or programmatically through the AWS Marketplace Catalog API. During listing creation, sellers are guided through a step-by-step workflow to fill in required information about their listings including up to 15 Amazon FPGA images. The self-service experience includes comprehensive inline validation and error messages to help sellers identify and resolve configuration issues before submission, streamlining the publishing process and improving speed to market. To learn more, see the AWS Marketplace Seller Guide and the AWS Marketplace Catalog API guide. To get started, visit the server product page in the AWS Marketplace Management Portal.
