Amazon CloudWatch now supports tags on dashboards

Amazon CloudWatch now supports tagging for CloudWatch dashboards, enabling you to organize, categorize, and control access to your dashboards using tags. Tags are key-value pairs that help you identify and manage AWS resources across your environment. With this launch, the PutDashboard API now accepts an optional Tags parameter, allowing you to assign up to 50 tags when creating a new dashboard. The TagResource, UntagResource, and ListTagsForResource APIs now support dashboard ARNs, enabling you to add, remove, and list tags on existing dashboards. You can also manage dashboard tags using AWS CloudFormation. This new capability allows you to group dashboards by team by team, project, or environment, implement attribute-based access control by scoping IAM permissions to dashboards with specific tag values, and filter dashboards by tag in AWS Resource Explorer. CloudWatch Dashboard tagging support is available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions where Amazon CloudWatch is available. To learn more, see TagResource in the Amazon CloudWatch API Reference. To get started with CloudWatch dashboards, see Amazon CloudWatch features.

Amazon Neptune now supports AWS CloudFormation for global databases

Amazon Neptune now supports AWS CloudFormation for provisioning and managing Neptune global databases. Using the new AWS::Neptune::GlobalCluster resource type, you can define your multi-region graph database topology as code — automating deployment, storing configurations in source control, and integrating with CI/CD pipelines.
Neptune global databases provide a primary cluster with read-write capability and up to five read-only secondary clusters in different AWS Regions, connected through low-latency replication via the Neptune storage subsystem. Common use cases include low-latency read access across regions, disaster recovery, data residency compliance, and high-availability graph deployments with centralized writes and distributed reads.
This feature is available in all AWS Regions where Neptune global databases are supported.  To get started, see the Neptune global databases CloudFormation documentation.

Amazon EMR Serverless now supports live configuration updates without application restarts

Amazon EMR Serverless now supports updates to key application configurations such as maximum capacity, and custom image settings — without stopping and restarting the application. New workloads submitted after the update automatically use the new settings, while existing workloads continue uninterrupted with their original configuration.
Previously, modifying these settings required stopping your EMR Serverless application, making the change, and restarting it — forcing you to coordinate maintenance windows and temporarily block job submissions. Now you can adjust scaling boundaries or deploy updated custom images at any time without disrupting running jobs. This reduces operational overhead and lets you respond to changing workload demands or deploy image updates immediately. 
This feature is available on all Amazon EMR releases and in all AWS Regions where Amazon EMR Serverless is available. To learn more, visit the EMR Serverless User Guide.
