Amazon OpenSearch Service now supports index-level encryption

Amazon OpenSearch Service now supports index-level encryption, letting you encrypt each index at rest with its own AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) customer managed key. This helps you protect data with different ownership or sensitivity under separate keys on the same domain. For example, you can encrypt each tenant’s data with its own key in a multi-tenant application.
Index-level encryption builds on the existing encryption at rest capability in Amazon OpenSearch Service. To enable it, set the encryption mode to Native and specify a customer managed AWS KMS key when you create a new domain using the AWS Management Console or the AWS CLI. You can then register additional keys with the domain and use them to encrypt individual indexes.
Index-level encryption is available for domains running OpenSearch version 3.3 or later in 14 AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Mumbai, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Paris), and South America (São Paulo). There is no additional charge for the feature. Standard AWS KMS and OpenSearch Service charges apply.
To get started, see Index-level encryption in the Amazon OpenSearch Service Developer Guide.

Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey introduces ElastiCache Insights

Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey now features ElastiCache Insights, a pre-built dashboard in Amazon CloudWatch for your node-based clusters. ElastiCache Insights brings cluster health, memory, compute, network, command throughput, latency, keyspace, and errors into a single view sourced from a set of OpenTelemetry metrics that ElastiCache publishes automatically.
You can use ElastiCache Insights to check the health of your cache workloads across a Region at a glance, detect when a node nears its memory, network, or connection limits, and filter your view to a cluster, shard, node, or Availability Zone. You can also save a copy as the starting point for a custom dashboard tailored to your workload.
With detailed monitoring, you can choose metrics to publish every 15 seconds and view them on the Metrics tab or in your custom dashboard. CloudWatch pricing for OpenTelemetry metrics applies to ElastiCache detailed monitoring.
To get started, open the Metrics tab for a cluster in the Amazon ElastiCache console and choose View in ElastiCache Insights. You can also choose ElastiCache Insights under Infrastructure Monitoring in the Amazon CloudWatch console.
ElastiCache Insights is available for node-based Valkey clusters in all AWS Regions where Amazon CloudWatch supports OpenTelemetry metrics. To learn more about ElastiCache Insights, see Monitoring ElastiCache with OpenTelemetry metrics in the Amazon ElastiCache User Guide.

AWS Transfer Family supports custom ports for public SFTP servers

AWS Transfer Family now lets you configure custom ports on public SFTP servers and choose a communication mode for each port. You can support clients that require different ports or start SFTP connections differently on a single server.
Previously, public SFTP servers accepted connections only on port 22 and used server-first communication. With this launch, you can configure up to three ports (22, or any port from 2000 to 65535), allowing you to use the port numbers your business or network requires and offer multiple ports on one server. Some SFTP clients initiate communication themselves, and their connections can occasionally stall on a server-first port. For each port, you can now select client-first or server-first communication and direct clients to the port that matches their connection behavior. Using a port other than 22 can also reduce unwanted connection attempts from automated scanners that target port 22.
This capability is available in all AWS Regions where Transfer Family public SFTP servers are offered. To get started, visit the AWS Transfer Family console or use the AWS CLI or AWS SDKs. To learn more, visit Create an SFTP-enabled server in the AWS Transfer Family User Guide
