AWS Agent Registry for centralized agent discovery and governance is now available in Preview

AWS Agent Registry, available through Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, is now in preview — a private, governed catalog and discovery layer for agents, tools, skills, MCP servers, and custom resources within the organization. It gives teams complete visibility into their AI landscape, enabling them to discover existing agents and tools instead of rebuilding capabilities that already exist. The registry can be accessed via the AgentCore Console UI, APIs (AWS CLI, AWS SDK), or as an MCP server that builders can query and invoke directly from their IDEs. Registry supports both IAM and OAuth (Custom JWT) based access.
Teams can register resources manually through the console or API, or use URL-based discovery, which automatically retrieves metadata such as tool schemas and capability descriptions from a live MCP server or agent endpoint. Records go through an approval workflow where administrators can approve records before they become discoverable, and they can plug the registry into their existing approval workflows to enforce governance policies. AWS CloudTrail provides complete audit trails of all registry access and administrative actions, ensuring compliance and security oversight. For discovery, the registry offers both semantic and keyword search, so developers can quickly find agents by describing their use case in natural language. 
AWS Agent Registry (preview) is available in five AWS Regions where AgentCore is available: US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Europe (Ireland), and US East (N. Virginia). Learn more about the registry through the blog, and deep dive using the documentation.

Amazon S3 Lifecycle pauses actions on objects that are unable to replicate

Amazon S3 Lifecycle now prevents expiration and transition actions on objects that failed replication, helping you to coordinate replication configuration or permissions changes with actions defined in your lifecycle rules.
Incorrect permissions or replication configuration can prevent objects from being replicated. With this change, S3 Lifecycle no longer expires or transitions objects that have failed replication, even if they match one of the lifecycle rules that you have defined. Once you have corrected your replication configuration or permissions, you can use S3 Batch Replication to replicate objects that previously failed. After successful replication, S3 Lifecycle will automatically process these objects according to your configured rules.
This change applies automatically to all existing and new S3 Lifecycle configurations, across 37 AWS Regions, including the AWS China and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. We are in the process of deploying this change and plan to complete the deployment in the coming days. To learn more, visit S3 Lifecycle documentation and S3 Replication troubleshooting documentation.

Amazon EKS managed node groups now support EC2 Auto Scaling warm pools

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) managed node groups now support Auto Scaling warm pools, enabling you to maintain pre-initialized EC2 instances ready for rapid scale-out. This reduces node provisioning latency for applications with burst traffic patterns, time-sensitive workloads, or long instance boot times due to complex initialization scripts and software dependencies. With warm pools enabled, your EKS managed node group maintains a pool of instances that have already completed OS initialization, user data execution, and software configuration. When demand increases and the Auto Scaling group scales out, instances transition from the warm pool to active service without repeating the full cold-start sequence. You can configure instances in the warm pool as Stopped (lower cost, longer transition) or Running (higher cost, faster transition). You can also enable reuse on scale-in, which returns instances to the warm pool during scale-down instead of terminating them. Warm pools work with Cluster Autoscaler without requiring any additional configuration. You can enable warm pools through the EKS API, AWS CLI, AWS Management Console, or AWS CloudFormation by adding a warmPoolConfig to your CreateNodegroup or UpdateNodegroupConfig requests. Existing managed node groups that do not enable warm pools are unaffected. This feature is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon EKS is available, except for the China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet and the China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD. To get started, see the Amazon EKS managed node groups documentation.

Amazon IVS Real-Time Streaming now supports redundant ingest

Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) Real-Time Streaming now supports redundant ingest, helping protect your live streams against source encoder failures and first-mile network issues. With redundant ingest, you can stream from two encoders simultaneously to a single stage with automated failover, ensuring uninterrupted delivery to your viewers.
Redundant ingest is ideal for live events, 24/7 live streams, or any scenario where uninterrupted delivery is essential. This capability helps you maintain viewer engagement during unexpected disruptions and enables continuous 24/7 streaming. 
Amazon IVS is a managed live streaming solution designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world. Visit the AWS region table for a full list of AWS Regions where the Amazon IVS console and APIs for control and creation of video streams are available.
To learn more, please visit the Amazon IVS Real-Time Streaming RTMP ingest documentation page.

SageMaker HyperPod now supports gang scheduling for distributed training workloads

Amazon SageMaker HyperPod task governance now supports gang scheduling, which ensures all pods required for a distributed training job are ready before training begins. Administrators can configure gang scheduling to prevent wasted compute from partial job runs and avoid deadlocks from jobs waiting for resources. Data scientists running distributed AI/ML training jobs on Amazon SageMaker HyperPod clusters using the EKS orchestrator require multiple pods to work together across nodes with pod-to-pod communication. When some pods start but others do not, jobs can hold onto resources without making progress, block other workloads, and increase costs. Gang scheduling resolves this by monitoring all pods in a workload and pulling the workload back if not all pods are ready within a set time. Pulled-back workloads are automatically requeued to prevent stalling. Administrators can adjust settings on the HyperPod Console, such as how long to wait for pods to be ready, how to handle node failures, whether to admit workloads one at a time to avoid deadlocks on busy clusters, and how retries are scheduled. This capability is currently available for Amazon SageMaker HyperPod clusters using the EKS orchestrator across the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), and Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Jakarta), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Stockholm), Europe (Spain), and South America (São Paulo).

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser adds OS-level interaction capabilities

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser now supports OS-level interaction capabilities, enabling automation of browser workflows that require direct operating system control beyond Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) capabilities. This enhancement addresses automation scenarios where CDP alone is insufficient, such as mouse operations, print dialogs, native system alerts, and keyboard shortcuts. The feature serves AI agent developers, test automation engineers, and organizations building LLM-powered web interaction tools. The new capabilities provide automation through mouse operations (click, move, drag, scroll), keyboard operations (type, press, shortcuts like ctrl+a and ctrl+p), and full desktop screenshots, all at OS-level coordinates extending beyond the browser viewport. Key use cases include automated testing with system dialog handling, document management workflows, complex UI interactions with right-click menus, and vision-based AI agents that require complete browser environment visibility. This feature is available by default on all browser instances in all 14 AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser is available: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), and Canada (Central).
