The AWS API MCP Server is now available on AWS Marketplace

AWS announces the availability of the AWS API MCP Server on AWS Marketplace, enabling customers to deploy the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. The marketplace entry includes step-by-step configuration and deployment instructions for deploying the AWS API MCP Server as a managed service with built-in authentication and session isolation to Bedrock Agent Core Runtime. The AWS Marketplace deployment simplifies container management while providing enterprise-grade security, scalability, and session isolation through Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime. Customers can deploy the AWS API MCP Server with configurable authentication methods (SigV4 or JWT), implement least-privilege IAM policies, and leverage AgentCore’s built-in logging and monitoring capabilities. The deployment lets customers configure IAM roles, authentication methods, and network settings according to their security requirements. The AWS API MCP Server can now be deployed from AWS Marketplace in all AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock AgentCore is supported. Get started by visiting the AWS API MCP Server listing on AWS Marketplace or explore the deployment guide on AWS Labs GitHub repository. Learn more about Amazon Bedrock AgentCore in the AWS documentation.

Amazon Aurora now supports PostgreSQL 17.6, 16.10, 15.14, 14.19, and 13.22

Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition has added support for PostgreSQL versions 17.6, 16.10, 15.14, 14.19, and 13.22. The update includes the PostgreSQL community’s product improvements and bug fixes, and also includes Aurora-specific enhancements.
Dynamic Data Masking (DDM) (16.10 and 17.6 only) is a new database-level security feature that protects sensitive data like personally identifiable information by masking column values dynamically at query time based on role-based policies, without altering the actual stored data. This release also includes a shared plan cache, improved performance and recovery-time-objective (RTO) and improvement for Global Database switchovers. To use the new versions, create a new Aurora PostgreSQL-compatible database with just a few clicks in the Amazon RDS Management Console. You can also upgrade your existing database. Please review the Aurora documentation to learn more about upgrading. Refer to the Aurora version policy to help you to decide how often to upgrade and how to plan your upgrade process. These releases are available in all commercial AWS Regions and the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. Amazon Aurora is designed for unparalleled high performance and availability at global scale with full MySQL and PostgreSQL compatibility. It provides built-in security, continuous backups, serverless compute, up to 15 read replicas, automated multi-Region replication, and integrations with other AWS services.

Amazon Kinesis Video Streams now supports a new cost effective warm storage tier

AWS announces a new warm storage tier for Amazon Kinesis Video Streams (Amazon KVS), delivering cost-effective storage for extended media retention. The standard Amazon KVS storage tier, now designated as the hot tier, remains optimized for real-time data access and short-term storage. The new warm tier enables long-term media retention with sub-second access latency at reduced storage costs. The warm storage tier enables developers of home security and enterprise video monitoring solutions to cost-effectively stream data from devices, cameras, and mobile phones while maintaining extended retention periods for video analytics and regulatory compliance. Moreover, developers now have the flexibility to configure fragment sizes based on their specific requirements — selecting smaller fragments for lower latency use cases or larger fragments to reduce ingestion costs. Both hot and warm storage tiers integrate seamlessly with Amazon Rekognition Video and Amazon SageMaker, enabling continuous data processing to support the creation of computer vision and video analytics applications. Amazon Kinesis Video Streams with the new warm storage tier is available in all regions where Amazon Kinesis Video Streams is available, except the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. To learn more, refer to the getting started guide.
