Amazon SES Mail Manager adds new features for enhanced security and email processing

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) Mail Manager now offers enhancements to email security and processing while simplifying email infrastructure migrations. These enhancements include optional TLS and certificate-based authentication (mTLS) support in Ingress Endpoint, and two new rule actions: Invoke Lambda function and Bounce. These enhancements benefit organizations seeking to maintain compatibility with legacy systems while implementing stronger security controls, and advanced email routing capabilities. For example customers can now configure STARTTLS as an optional TLS configuration, enabling legacy systems that don’t support STARTTLS to connect to Mail Manager. With Mutual TLS (mTLS) in Ingress Endpoint customers can now used certificate-based authentication for enhanced security. The Invoke Lambda function rule action allows direct invocation of AWS Lambda functions from rule sets, enabling custom email processing workflows and the Bounce rule action provides RFC-compliant SMTP responses to sending servers.
These new enhancements are available today in all AWS Regions where Amazon SES Mail Manager is offered, except for the Middle East (UAE) and Middle East (Bahrain) regions.

Oracle Database@AWS launches sub-millisecond network latency for high performance applications

Today, Oracle Database@AWS (ODB@AWS) announced high performance networking that provides customers consistent sub-millisecond roundtrip latency from their AWS applications to the database. Many applications such as payment processing, securities trading, and high volume transaction processing require predictable and consistent low-latency network connectivity to the application database. Customers who run such latency-sensitive applications on Oracle Exadata systems on-premises optimize their infrastructure to obtain the performance that these applications require. With high performance networking for ODB@AWS, customers can now seamlessly migrate these applications to an equivalent optimized environment on AWS. ODB@AWS automatically provides consistent and predictable low-latency network connectivity from Amazon EC2 instances to ODB@AWS databases through optimized placement of compute instances. When customers create an ODB@AWS network for their databases, they can now launch placement optimized Amazon EC2 instances with consistent, sub-millisecond latency network connectivity to their databases using existing Amazon EC2 APIs and workflows, such as launching new EC2 instances, or reserving compute capacity with EC2 On-Demand Capacity Reservations. There is no additional charge for EC2 instances using optimized placement for connectivity to ODB@AWS databases. The feature is available in the US-East-2 (Ohio), CA-Central-1 (Canada Central), EU-Central-1 (Frankfurt), EU-West-1 (Dublin), AP-Northeast-1 (Tokyo), and AP-Southeast-2 (Sydney) AWS Regions, with more Regions coming soon. For more information, see High performance networking for Oracle Database@AWS.

AWS Managed Microsoft AD adds Multi-Region replication for Opt-In regions

AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory, also known as AWS Managed Microsoft AD, now supports Multi-Region replication in AWS Opt-In regions. This expands the existing Multi-Region replication capability to additional AWS regions, eliminating the need to create and manually synchronize independent directories in each region and allowing domain-joined workloads in those regions to connect to AWS Managed Microsoft AD.
With automated Multi-Region replication, AWS Managed Microsoft AD handles inter-region networking, deploys domain controllers in separate Availability Zones per region, and replicates all directory data including users, groups, Group Policy Objects, and schema. The service configures an Active Directory site per region to optimize authentication performance and minimize cross-region data transfer costs. 
Multi-Region replication is available in AWS Opt-In regions where AWS Managed Microsoft AD is available, except the Middle East (UAE) and Middle East (Bahrain) Regions. You pay by the hour for the domain controllers in each region, plus the cross-region data transfer.  To get started, see the Configure Multi-Region replication guide.

Amazon RDS for Oracle now supports cross-account snapshot sharing with additional storage volumes

Amazon RDS for Oracle now supports cross-account snapshot sharing for database instances with additional storage volumes. Additional storage volumes allow customers to scale database storage up to 256 TiB by adding up to three storage volumes, each with up to 64 TiB, in addition to the primary storage volume. With this launch, customers can create, share, and copy a database snapshot across AWS accounts for database instances set up with additional storage volumes. Cross account snapshots enable customers to set up isolated backup environments in separate accounts for compliance requirements and to perform diagnostics, such as investigating production issues by restoring database snapshots in a separate account for development and testing. Cross account snapshots for database instances with additional storage volumes preserve the storage layout of the original database instance, including the configuration of additional storage volumes. When a snapshot is shared to a target AWS account, authorized users in the target account can restore it to another database instance, copy the snapshot within the same or different AWS Region, or create independent backups under different AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) access permissions for backup and disaster recovery. Cross-account snapshot sharing with additional storage volumes is available in all AWS commercial Regions. Customers can start using this feature today through the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or AWS SDKs. To learn more, see Sharing a DB snapshot for Amazon RDS, Copying a DB snapshot for Amazon RDS, and Working with storage in RDS for Oracle in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
