AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery now supports IPv6

AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS) now supports IPv6 for both data replication and control plane connections. Customers operating in IPv6-only or dual-stack network environments can now configure AWS DRS to replicate using IPv6, eliminating the need for IPv4 addresses in their disaster recovery setup. AWS DRS minimizes downtime and data loss with fast, reliable recovery of on-premises and cloud-based applications using affordable storage, minimal compute, and point-in-time recovery. Previously, AWS DRS required IPv4 connectivity for all replication and service communication. Now, customers can set the internet protocol to IPv6 in their replication configuration to use dual-stack endpoints for agent-to-service communication and data replication. This helps customers meet network modernization requirements and enables disaster recovery in environments where IPv4 addresses are unavailable or restricted. Existing replication configurations are not affected and continue to use IPv4 by default. This capability is available in all AWS Regions where AWS DRS is available and where Amazon EC2 supports IPv6. See the AWS Regional Services List for the latest availability information. To learn more about AWS DRS, visit our product page or documentation. To get started, sign in to the AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery Console.

Amazon CloudWatch pipelines introduces new compliance and governance capabilities

Amazon CloudWatch pipelines now includes new compliance and governance capabilities to help you maintain data integrity and control access when processing logs. CloudWatch pipelines is a fully managed service that ingests, transforms, and routes log data to CloudWatch without requiring you to manage infrastructure. Because pipeline processors modify log events during transformation, organizations with audit or regulatory requirements need ways to preserve original data and track what has been changed. These new tools address those needs directly.
You can now enable a “keep original” toggle to automatically store a copy of your raw logs before any transformation takes place, ensuring the unmodified data is always available when needed. Pipelines also adds new metadata to processed log entries indicating that the log has been transformed, making it easy to distinguish between original and processed data during audits or investigations. Additionally, new IAM condition keys let administrators restrict who can create pipelines based on log source name and type, giving operators fine-grained control over pipeline creation across their organization.
These compliance and governance features are available at no additional cost. Standard CloudWatch Logs storage rates apply to both the original and transformed copies of your log data when the keep original log option is enabled. You can use these features in all AWS Regions where CloudWatch pipelines is generally available.
To get started, visit the CloudWatch Ingestion page in the Amazon CloudWatch console. To learn more, see the CloudWatch pipelines documentation.

AWS Deadline Cloud supports monitor creation in multiple regions

Today, AWS Deadline Cloud announces support for creating monitors in multiple AWS Regions without additional configuration of your IAM Identity Center instance. AWS Deadline Cloud is a fully managed service that helps creative teams manage and scale their rendering workloads in the cloud. You can now deploy render farms with monitors across multiple Regions without needing to adjust your existing IAM Identity Center configuration. You can operate more efficiently by placing rendering resources in regions closest to your artists and studios worldwide, and can run and compare workloads across regions to help optimize your rendering strategy or diversify your instance types. Deadline Cloud automatically routes authentication requests to your IAM Identity Center instance in its primary Region, so your identity data remains in place without replication and requires no changes to your identity management setup. To learn more, see Getting Started with Deadline Cloud in the AWS Deadline Cloud User Guide.

Amazon CloudWatch pipelines now supports drop and conditional processing

Amazon CloudWatch pipelines now supports conditional processing and a new drop events processor, giving you more control over how your log data is transformed. CloudWatch pipelines is a fully managed service that ingests, transforms, and routes log data to CloudWatch without requiring you to manage infrastructure. Until now, processors applied to all log entries uniformly. With conditional processing, you can define rules that determine when a processor runs and which individual log entries it acts on, so you only transform the data that matters.
Conditional processing is available across 21 processors including Add Entries, Delete Entries, Copy Values, Grok, Rename Key, and more. For each processor, you can set a “run when” condition to skip the entire processor if the condition is not met, or an entry-level condition to control whether each individual action within the processor is applied. The new Drop Events processor lets you filter out unwanted log entries from third-party pipeline connectors based on conditions you define, helping reduce noise and lower costs.
Conditional processing and the Drop Events processor are available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions where CloudWatch pipelines is generally available. Standard CloudWatch Logs ingestion and storage rates still apply.
To get started, visit the CloudWatch pipelines page in the Amazon CloudWatch console. To learn more, see the CloudWatch pipelines documentation.
