Amazon DynamoDB global tables now support disassociating replicas

Amazon DynamoDB global tables now support disassociating a replica without deleting its table or data. Global tables provide fully managed, multi-Region, multi-active replication. You can now stop replication to and from a replica and continue using the same table as a single-Region table.
An account can leave a shared multi-account global table and continue using its table independently. You can also stop replication to a Region while keeping its table for local workloads, validation, or audit, without creating a replacement table or copying data.
DynamoDB supports disassociating replicas in all AWS Regions for same-account and multi-account global tables that use multi-Region eventual consistency (MREC).
To get started, use the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, DynamoDB API, or AWS CloudFormation. For more information, see Disassociating replicas in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

Announcing Amazon ECS Gateway, a managed ingress solution for your ECS services

AWS announces Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) Gateway, a new resource that simplifies ingress networking for containerized applications by dynamically provisioning and managing Application Load Balancers (ALBs) and their supporting resources directly in your account.
With ECS Gateway, platform teams define organizational networking standards once on a gateway and associate it with one or more clusters, giving organizations a centralized way to govern how traffic reaches their ECS services. Application teams simply opt in to inherit those standards without requiring networking expertise. ECS Gateway offers host-based routing, allows up to 25 services to share an ALB to optimize infrastructure costs, and gives each service a unique Domain Name System (DNS) hostname. ECS manages the full lifecycle of the underlying infrastructure, provisioning the first ALB when your first service connects, adding more ALBs when capacity is reached, and removing them when no longer needed. You can inspect these resources and the gateway route to each service to see exactly how requests reach your applications. For traffic and health monitoring, you can use standard ALB metrics in Amazon CloudWatch and target health information from Elastic Load Balancing.
To get started, create an ECS Gateway, associate it with a cluster, and opt in your ECS service by adding the gateway connector parameter using the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, API, AWS SDKs, or AWS CloudFormation. ECS Gateway is available for ECS services using the awsvpc network mode across all launch types. It is available now in all commercial AWS Regions at no additional charge. You pay only for the underlying infrastructure provisioned in your account when your services connect to the gateway. To learn more, refer to the AWS News blog and our documentation page.

AWS Transform for migrations expands support for existing landing zones

AWS Transform now supports more types of existing AWS environments when building landing zones for your migration, including AWS Control Tower landing zones and landing zones built with AWS Organizations. AWS Transform runs a foundation gap analysis of your current environment against AWS best practices and expands your landing zone on top of what’s already in your target accounts, so your team can start migrating sooner.
AWS Transform also now supports an Infrastructure as Code (IaC)-only mode for building landing zones for your migration. In this mode, AWS Transform analyzes your organization, generates recommendations, and produces IaC tailored to your migration plan in AWS CDK, Terraform, or Landing Zone Accelerator (LZA) format. IaC-only mode is designed for organizations that prefer not to grant AWS Transform direct access to their management account. AWS Transform can now connect through a delegated administrator (DA) account instead. It also benefits customers who manage their own deployment pipeline and don’t need the agent to deploy automatically.
The AWS Transform for migrations landing zone agent automates landing zone design end to end, including foundation setup, organizational unit (OU) and account structure, service control policies (SCPs), and workload accounts aligned to your migration planning and waves. You can deploy directly or generate IaC for your own pipeline.
These new capabilities are available in all target AWS Regions supported by AWS Transform for migrations.
To learn more, please visit the AWS Transform User Guide.

AWS Clean Rooms now supports Databricks as a data source

AWS Clean Rooms now supports Databricks as a data source, so collaboration members and their partners can securely analyze data managed in Databricks without moving or revealing the source data. Members query a Databricks table shared through Delta Sharing directly in a collaboration. Databricks joins AWS Glue, Snowflake, and Amazon Athena as supported data sources in AWS Clean Rooms.
Previously, members with data in Databricks had to export or replicate it into Amazon S3 to use it as a table in a collaboration, which added pipeline work and an extra copy of the data to govern. Now members can register a Databricks table directly by providing the workspace URL, schema, and table along with a Delta Sharing share, and make it available to a collaboration. For example, a retailer that manages its customer data in Databricks can collaborate with a media partner on campaign measurement in AWS Clean Rooms, running approved analyses against its Databricks data without first building and maintaining an export to S3.
AWS Clean Rooms helps companies and their partners easily analyze and collaborate on their collective datasets without revealing or copying one another’s underlying data. For more information about the AWS Regions where AWS Clean Rooms is available, see the AWS Regions table. To learn more about collaborating with AWS Clean Rooms, visit AWS Clean Rooms.

Structured outputs for Claude models available on Amazon Bedrock

Amazon Bedrock now supports structured outputs for all Anthropic Claude models across both the bedrock-runtime and the bedrock-mantle endpoint. Whether you call Claude through boto3 and the bedrock-runtime APIs or through the Messages API and the bedrock-mantle endpoint, you can now receive schema-compliant JSON responses that conform to a defined structure, without custom parsing, retry logic, or post-processing.
With structured outputs for Claude on Amazon Bedrock, you can automate reliable, schema-compliant tasks across industries. Examples include extracting every required field from financial earnings reports and compliance documents, parsing clinical notes into Electronic Health Records (EHR), and enriching product catalogs with consistent, validated results. You can also analyze contracts for key terms, parties, and obligations, or power intelligent support ticket routing where intents, sentiments, and entities always match your application’s data model.
To learn more, see the Amazon Bedrock documentation . Structured outputs is available where claude models are available. For more information check the regional availability details page.
