Amazon Connect now supports dynamic dialing mode switching for outbound campaigns

Today, AWS announces the general availability of dynamic dialing mode switching for Amazon Connect Outbound Campaigns, which allows contact center administrators to change between preview and non-preview dialing modes during active campaign execution. Previously, campaigns were locked into their initial dialing mode once started, requiring administrators to stop and restart campaigns to adjust strategies. This launch solves the problem of inflexible dialing strategies that couldn’t adapt to real-time business needs and agent availability changes.
Dynamic dialing mode switching enables contact centers to optimize agent productivity and campaign efficiency in real-time without campaign interruptions. For example, you can automatically switch from progressive dialing to preview mode when handling high-priority contacts that require additional context, then revert back when traffic returns to normal patterns. This flexibility is particularly valuable for campaigns with varying contact priorities or fluctuating agent availability throughout the day.
Dynamic dialing mode switching is available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions where Amazon Connect Outbound Campaigns is supported: US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (London), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Africa (Cape Town).
To learn more, see the Amazon Connect Administrator Guide or visit the Amazon Connect website.

AWS Marketplace now supports multiple purchases of SaaS and Professional Services products

AWS Marketplace now supports Concurrent Agreements for SaaS and Professional Services products, enabling buyers to make multiple purchases for the same product within a single AWS account. Previously, buyers could only maintain one active agreement per product per AWS account, requiring sellers to use workarounds to support expansion deals. Concurrent Agreements removes this constraint, allowing different business units to procure independently with their own negotiated terms and pricing.
Both buyers and sellers benefit from the flexibility Concurrent Agreements provides. Buyers can accept multiple offers for the same product without disrupting existing agreements, supporting multi-team procurement within centralized AWS accounts, mid-term expansions, and repeat purchases. Sellers can close multi-business unit deals that couldn’t happen before, transact expansions immediately instead of waiting for renewal cycles, and eliminate the operational overhead of managing workarounds. 
Concurrent Agreements is enabled by default for all Professional Services listings starting today, with no seller action required. For SaaS listings, sellers must update their AWS Marketplace integration to handle multiple active subscriptions, including updating subscription notifications to use EventBridge and updating entitlement and metering APIs. Starting June 1, 2026, support for Concurrent Agreements will be required for new SaaS products. Sellers who have completed the integration work can opt in to enable Concurrent Agreements for their SaaS products now. 
This capability is available in all AWS Regions where AWS Marketplace is supported. Concurrent Agreements purchasing is available on SaaS products where sellers have completed the integration, and is enabled by default for all Professional Services listings. To learn more about enabling Concurrent Agreements as a seller of SaaS products, review the Concurrent Agreements integration lab.

Amazon ECS Managed Instances now integrates with Amazon EC2 Capacity Reservations

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) Managed Instances now integrates with Amazon EC2 Capacity Reservations, enabling you to leverage your reserved capacity for predictable workload availability, while ECS handles all infrastructure management. This integration helps you balance reliable capacity scaling with cost efficiency, helping achieve high availability for mission‑critical workloads. Amazon ECS Managed Instances is a fully managed compute option designed to eliminate infrastructure management overhead, dynamically scale EC2 instances to match your workload requirements, and continuously optimize task placement to reduce infrastructure costs. With today’s launch, you can configure your ECS Managed Instances capacity providers to use capacity reservations by setting the capacityOptionType parameter to reserved, in addition to the existing spot and on-demand options. You can also specify reservation preferences to optimize cost and availability: use reservations-only to launch EC2 instances exclusively in reserved capacity for maximum predictability, reservations-first to prefer reservations while maintaining flexibility to fall back to on-demand capacity when needed, or reservations-excluded to prevent your capacity provider from using reservations altogether. To get started, you can use the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, AWS CloudFormation, or AWS SDKs to configure your ECS Managed Instances capacity provider by choosing capacityOptionType=reserved and providing a capacity reservation group and reservation strategy. This feature is now available in all AWS Regions. For more details, refer to the documentation.

Amazon Cognito enhances client secret management with secret rotation and custom secrets

Amazon Cognito enhances client secret lifecycle management for app clients of Cognito user pools by adding client secret rotation and support for custom client secrets. Cognito helps you implement secure sign-in and access control for users, AI agents, and microservices in minutes, and a Cognito app client is a configuration that interacts with one mobile or web application that authenticates with Cognito. Previously, Cognito automatically generated all app client secrets. With this launch, in addition to the automatically generated secrets, you have the option to bring your own custom client secrets for new or existing app clients. Additionally, you can now rotate client secrets on-demand and maintain up to two active client secrets per app client.
The new client secret lifecycle management capabilities address needs for organizations with periodic credential rotation requirements, companies improving security posture, and enterprises migrating from other authentication systems to Cognito. Maintaining two active secrets per app client allows gradual transition to the new secret without application downtime.
Client secret rotation and custom client secrets are available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Cognito user pools are available. To learn more, see the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide. You can get started using the new capabilities through the AWS Management Console, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), AWS Software Development Kits (SDKs), or AWS CloudFormation.
