Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser now supports browser profiles

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser now supports browser profiles, enabling you to reuse authentication state across multiple browser sessions without repeated login flows. This feature reduces session setup time from minutes to tens of seconds for enterprise customers processing hundreds or thousands of automated browser sessions daily.
Browser profiles persist and reuse browser data including cookies and local storage across multiple sessions. You authenticate to a website once and save the session to a browser profile. When you start a new session using that saved profile, your authentication state is preserved, and you remain logged in. This enables agents to perform tasks on authenticated websites without manual login intervention. You can choose flexible session modes for both read-only and persistent operations, enabling parallel processing where multiple sessions use the same profile simultaneously.
This feature is available in all 14 AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser is available: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), Asia Pacific (Seoul), and Canada (Central).

Amazon ECS Managed Instances now available in AWS European Sovereign Cloud

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) Managed Instances is now available in the AWS European Sovereign Cloud. ECS Managed Instances is a fully managed compute option designed to eliminate infrastructure management overhead while giving you access to the full capabilities of Amazon EC2. By offloading infrastructure operations to AWS, you get the application performance you want and the simplicity you need while reducing your total cost of ownership. Managed Instances dynamically scales EC2 instances to match your workload requirements and continuously optimizes task placement to reduce infrastructure costs. It also enhances your security posture through regular security patching initiated every 14 days. You can simply define your task requirements such as the number of vCPUs, memory size, and CPU architecture, and Amazon ECS automatically provisions, configures and operates most optimal EC2 instances within your AWS account using AWS-controlled access. You can also specify desired instance types in Managed Instances Capacity Provider configuration, including GPU-accelerated, network-optimized, and burstable performance, to run your workloads on the instance families you prefer. To get started with ECS Managed Instances, use the AWS Console, Amazon ECS MCP Server, or your favorite infrastructure-as-code tooling to enable it in a new or existing Amazon ECS cluster. You will be charged for the management of compute provisioned, in addition to your regular Amazon EC2 costs. To learn more about ECS Managed Instances, visit the feature page, documentation, and AWS News launch blog.

Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser now supports custom domain

Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser now supports custom domains for your WorkSpaces Secure Browser portals, enabling you to configure portal access through your own domain name instead of the default portal URL. This feature provides users with a more integrated experience using a domain that aligns with your organization’s branding for each secure browser session. As an administrator you simply add the custom domain in the WorkSpaces Secure browser portal and set up a reverse proxy (for example Amazon CloudFront). Once set up, traffic is routed through your reverse proxy to the portal endpoint, and WorkSpaces Secure Browser automatically redirects users to the configured custom domain after authentication and authorization. Authentication can be via AWS Identity Center or your own Identity Provider (IdP), supporting both IdP-initiated and service provider-initiated flows. This feature is available at no additional cost in 10 AWS Regions, including US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt, London, Ireland), and Asia Pacific (Tokyo, Mumbai, Sydney, Singapore). WorkSpaces Secure Browser offers pay-as-you go pricing. To get started, visit the Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser console to configure your custom domain for your WorkSpaces Secure Browser portal. For more information, see the custom domain section in the Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser’s documentation.

AWS Glue launches native REST API connector for universal data integration

AWS Glue now offers a native REST-based connector that enables customers to easily read data from any source with a REST-based API. Customers can now create custom connectors to any REST-enabled data source and seamlessly integrate that data into their AWS Glue ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load) jobs. This capability extends AWS Glue’s existing connectivity to 100+ non-AWS data sources through 60+ native connectors and additional options on AWS Marketplace. Previously, connecting to proprietary systems or emerging platforms required customers to build custom connectors by providing specialized JARs with the necessary libraries. The new native REST API connector eliminates this complexity, making it easier to integrate data from any REST-enabled source. It reduces operational overhead by eliminating the need to install, update, or manage custom libraries, freeing teams from maintenance burdens. The connector also enhances flexibility, enabling organizations to quickly adapt to new data sources as business needs evolve. It also streamlines ETL management by allowing data engineers to focus on data transformation and business logic rather than spending time building and maintaining connector infrastructure. The AWS Glue REST API connector is available in all AWS commercial regions where AWS Glue is available. You can start using the AWS Glue REST API connector using AWS Glue APIs, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or AWS Software Development Kit (SDK). To get started, see AWS Glue documentation.

Structured outputs now available in Amazon Bedrock

Amazon Bedrock now supports structured outputs, a capability that provides consistent, machine-readable responses from foundation models that adhere to your defined JSON schemas. Instead of prompting for valid JSON and adding extra checks in your application, you can specify the format you want and receive responses that match it—making production workflows more predictable and resilient. Structured outputs helps with common production tasks such as extracting key fields and powering workflows that use APIs or tools, where small formatting errors can break downstream systems. By ensuring schema compliance, it reduces the need for custom validation logic and lowers operational overhead through fewer failed requests and retries—so you can confidently deploy AI applications that require predictable, machine-readable outputs. You can use structured outputs in two ways: define a JSON schema that describes the response format you want, or use strict tool definitions to ensure a model’s tool calls match your specifications. Structured outputs is generally available for Anthropic Claude 4.5 models and select open-weight models across the Converse, ConverseStream, InvokeModel, and InvokeModelWithResponseStream APIs in all commercial AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock is supported. To learn more about structured outputs and the supported models, visit the Amazon Bedrock documentation.
