Deadline Cloud expands support with latest 6th, 7th, and 8th generation instances

AWS announces expanded instance family support in Deadline Cloud, adding new 6th, 7th, and 8th generation EC2 instances to enhance visual effects and animation rendering workloads. This release includes support for C7i, C7a, M7i, M7a, R7a, R7i, M8a, M8i, and R8i instance families, along with additional 6th generation instance types that were previously unavailable. Deadline Cloud is a fully managed service that helps customers run visual compute workloads in the cloud without having to manage infrastructure. With this enhancement, studios can utilize a broader range of AWS compute technology to optimize their rendering workflows. The compute-optimized (C-series), general-purpose (M-series), and memory-optimized (R-series) instances provide tailored options for different rendering workloads – from compute-intensive simulations to memory-heavy scene processing. The inclusion of latest-generation instances like M8a and R8i enables customers to access improved performance and efficiency for their most demanding rendering tasks. These instance families are available in all 10 AWS Regions where Deadline Cloud is offered. The specific instance types available in each Region depend on the regional availability of the EC2 instance types themselves. To learn more about the new instance types supported in Deadline Cloud and their regional availability, see the AWS Deadline Cloud pricing page.

Amazon SageMaker launches custom tags for project resources

Today, Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio announced new capabilities allowing SageMaker projects to add custom tags to resources created through the project. This helps customers enforce tagging standards that conform to Service Control Policies (SCP) and helps enable cost tracking reporting practices on resources created across the organization. As an Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio administrator, you can configure a project profile with tag configurations that will be pushed down to all projects using the project profile. Project profiles can be setup to pass Key and Value tag pairings or pass the Key of the tag with a default Value that can be modified during project creation. All tag values passed to the project will result in the resources created by that project being tagged. This provides administrators a governance mechanism that enforces project resources have the expected tags. This first release of custom tags for project resources is supported only through application programming interface (API). Custom tags for project resources capability is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio is supported, including: Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Europe (Ireland), US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt), South America (São Paulo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Europe (London), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm) To learn more, visit Amazon SageMaker then get started with the custom tag API documentation.

Amazon ECS announces non-root container support for managed EBS volumes

Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) now supports mounting Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes to containers running as non-root users. With this launch, ECS automatically configures the EBS volume’s file system permissions to allow non-root users to read and write data securely, while preserving the root-level ownership of the volume. This enhancement simplifies security-first container deployments by removing the need for manual permission management or custom entrypoint scripts.
This feature enhances container security by allowing tasks to run as non-root users, reducing the risk of privilege escalation and unauthorized access to data. Previously, for a container in a task to write to a mounted Amazon EBS volume, it had to run as the root user. ECS now automatically manages EBS volume permissions, simplifying workflows and ensuring that all containers within a task — regardless of user ID — can securely read and write to the mounted volume.
This feature is now available in all AWS Regions where Amazon ECS and Amazon EBS are supported, for EC2, AWS Fargate, and ECS Managed Instances launch types. To learn more, see Use Amazon EBS volumes with Amazon ECS in the Amazon ECS Developer Guide.
