Amazon CloudWatch logs centralization rules now support customizable destination log group structure

Amazon CloudWatch now supports customizing destination log group names when creating CloudWatch log centralization rules. Organizations managing logs across multiple accounts can now use attributes to organize centralized logs into meaningful hierarchies — by account ID, region, organizational unit, or other AWS Organizations metadata — that match how their organization operates and what their compliance requirements demand.
You can define a destination log group name structure using attributes that CloudWatch Logs automatically replaces with actual values when logs are copied. For example, using the pattern ${source.accountId}/${source.region}/${source.logGroup} creates destination log groups like 123456789012/us-east-1/cloudtrail/managementevent, making it easy to identify which account and region logs originated from. You can use attributes, including source account ID, region, log group name, organization ID, organizational unit ID, root ID, and the full organizational path.
Customizable destination log group names are available in all centralization rules supported regions.
Customers can use centralization rules to centralize one copy of logs for free (ingestion). Additional copies are charged at $0.05/GB of logs centralized (the backup region feature is considered an additional copy). Storage charges apply. To learn more, visit the CloudWatch Logs Centralization documentation.

Amazon CloudWatch now provides lock contention diagnostics for Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL

Amazon CloudWatch Database Insights now provides lock contention diagnostics for Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL instances. This feature helps you identify the root cause behind both ongoing and historical lock contention issues within minutes. The lock contention diagnostics feature is available exclusively in the Advanced mode of CloudWatch Database Insights. With this launch, you can visualize a locking condition in the Database Insights console, which shows the relationship between blocking and waiting sessions. The visualization helps you quickly identify the dominating sessions, queries, or objects causing lock contention. Additionally, this feature persists historical locking data for 15 months, allowing you to analyze and investigate historical locking conditions. You no longer need to manually run custom queries or rely on application logs to diagnose lock contention issues, streamlining the troubleshooting process. You can get started with this feature by enabling the Advanced mode of CloudWatch Database Insights on your Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL clusters using the RDS console, AWS APIs, or the AWS SDK. CloudWatch Database Insights delivers database health monitoring aggregated at the fleet level, as well as instance-level dashboards for detailed database and SQL query analysis. CloudWatch Database Insights is available in all public AWS Regions and offers vCPU-based pricing – see the pricing page for details. For further information, visit the Database Insights documentation.

Amazon Connect now supports dynamic dialing mode switching for outbound campaigns

Today, AWS announces the general availability of dynamic dialing mode switching for Amazon Connect Outbound Campaigns, which allows contact center administrators to change between preview and non-preview dialing modes during active campaign execution. Previously, campaigns were locked into their initial dialing mode once started, requiring administrators to stop and restart campaigns to adjust strategies. This launch solves the problem of inflexible dialing strategies that couldn’t adapt to real-time business needs and agent availability changes.
Dynamic dialing mode switching enables contact centers to optimize agent productivity and campaign efficiency in real-time without campaign interruptions. For example, you can automatically switch from progressive dialing to preview mode when handling high-priority contacts that require additional context, then revert back when traffic returns to normal patterns. This flexibility is particularly valuable for campaigns with varying contact priorities or fluctuating agent availability throughout the day.
Dynamic dialing mode switching is available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions where Amazon Connect Outbound Campaigns is supported: 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).

AWS Marketplace now supports multiple purchases of SaaS and Professional Services products

AWS Marketplace now supports Concurrent Agreements for SaaS and Professional Services products, enabling buyers to make multiple purchases for the same product within a single AWS account. Previously, buyers could only maintain one active agreement per product per AWS account, requiring sellers to use workarounds to support expansion deals. Concurrent Agreements removes this constraint, allowing different business units to procure independently with their own negotiated terms and pricing.
Both buyers and sellers benefit from the flexibility Concurrent Agreements provides. Buyers can accept multiple offers for the same product without disrupting existing agreements, supporting multi-team procurement within centralized AWS accounts, mid-term expansions, and repeat purchases. Sellers can close multi-business unit deals that couldn’t happen before, transact expansions immediately instead of waiting for renewal cycles, and eliminate the operational overhead of managing workarounds. 
Concurrent Agreements is enabled by default for all Professional Services listings starting today, with no seller action required. For SaaS listings, sellers must update their AWS Marketplace integration to handle multiple active subscriptions, including updating subscription notifications to use EventBridge and updating entitlement and metering APIs. Starting June 1, 2026, support for Concurrent Agreements will be required for new SaaS products. Sellers who have completed the integration work can opt in to enable Concurrent Agreements for their SaaS products now. 
This capability is available in all AWS Regions where AWS Marketplace is supported. Concurrent Agreements purchasing is available on SaaS products where sellers have completed the integration, and is enabled by default for all Professional Services listings. To learn more about enabling Concurrent Agreements as a seller of SaaS products, review the Concurrent Agreements integration lab.

Amazon ECS Managed Instances now integrates with Amazon EC2 Capacity Reservations

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) Managed Instances now integrates with Amazon EC2 Capacity Reservations, enabling you to leverage your reserved capacity for predictable workload availability, while ECS handles all infrastructure management. This integration helps you balance reliable capacity scaling with cost efficiency, helping achieve high availability for mission‑critical workloads. Amazon ECS Managed Instances is a fully managed compute option designed to eliminate infrastructure management overhead, dynamically scale EC2 instances to match your workload requirements, and continuously optimize task placement to reduce infrastructure costs. With today’s launch, you can configure your ECS Managed Instances capacity providers to use capacity reservations by setting the capacityOptionType parameter to reserved, in addition to the existing spot and on-demand options. You can also specify reservation preferences to optimize cost and availability: use reservations-only to launch EC2 instances exclusively in reserved capacity for maximum predictability, reservations-first to prefer reservations while maintaining flexibility to fall back to on-demand capacity when needed, or reservations-excluded to prevent your capacity provider from using reservations altogether. To get started, you can use the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, AWS CloudFormation, or AWS SDKs to configure your ECS Managed Instances capacity provider by choosing capacityOptionType=reserved and providing a capacity reservation group and reservation strategy. This feature is now available in all AWS Regions. For more details, refer to the documentation.
