Amazon Bedrock Reserved Tier available now for Claude Sonnet 4.5 in AWS GovCloud (US-West)

Today, Amazon Bedrock introduces the expansion of the Reserved service tier designed for workloads requiring predictable performance and guaranteed tokens-per-minute capacity. The Reserved tier provides the ability to reserve prioritized compute capacity, keeping service levels predictable for your mission critical applications. It also includes the flexibility to allocate different input and output tokens-per-minute capacities to match the exact requirements of your workload and control cost. This is particularly valuable because many workloads have asymmetric token usage patterns. For instance, summarization tasks consume many input tokens but generate fewer output tokens, while content generation applications require less input and more output capacity. When your application needs more tokens-per-minute capacity than what you reserved , the service automatically overflows to the pay-as-you-go Standard tier, ensuring uninterrupted operations. The Reserved tier is available today for Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.5 in AWS GovCloud (US-West). Customers can reserve capacity for 1 month or 3 month duration. Customers pay a fixed price per 1K tokens-per-minute and are billed monthly. Amazon Bedrock Reserved Tier is available for customers in AWS GovCloud (US-West) via GOV-CRIS cross-region profile. With the expansion of the Reserved service tier, Amazon Bedrock continues to provide more choice to customers, helping them develop, scale, and deploy applications and agents that improve productivity and customer experiences while balancing performance and cost requirements. For more information about the AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock Reserved tier is available, refer to the Documentation. To get access to the Reserved tier, please contact your AWS account team.

Amazon EC2 C8gn instances are now available in additional regions

Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) C8gn instances, powered by the latest-generation AWS Graviton4 processors, are available in the AWS Region Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Africa (Cape Town), Europe (Ireland, London), Canada West (Calgary). The new instances provide up to 30% better compute performance than Graviton3-based Amazon EC2 C7gn instances. Amazon EC2 C8gn instances feature the latest 6th generation AWS Nitro Cards, and offer up to 600 Gbps network bandwidth, the highest network bandwidth among network optimized EC2 instances.    Take advantage of the enhanced networking capabilities of C8gn to scale performance and throughput, while optimizing the cost of running network-intensive workloads such as network virtual appliances, data analytics, CPU-based artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) inference.    For increased scalability, C8gn instances offer instance sizes up to 48xlarge, up to 384 GiB of memory, and up to 60 Gbps of bandwidth to Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS). C8gn instances support Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) networking on the 16xlarge, 24xlarge, 48xlarge, metal-24xl, and metal-48xl sizes, which enables lower latency and improved cluster performance for workloads deployed on tightly coupled clusters.    C8gn instances are available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon, N.California), Europe (Frankfurt, Stockholm, Ireland, London), Asia Pacific (Singapore, Malaysia, Sydney, Thailand, Mumbai), Middle East (UAE), Africa (Cape Town), Canada West (Calgary).    To learn more, see Amazon C8gn Instances. To begin your Graviton journey, visit the Level up your compute with AWS Graviton page. To get started, see AWS Management Console, AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), and AWS SDKs.

Amazon EMR Serverless now supports AWS KMS customer managed keys for encrypting local disks

Amazon EMR Serverless now supports encrypting local disks with AWS Key Management Service (KMS) customer managed keys (CMKs). You can now meet strict regulatory and compliance requirements with additional encryption options beyond default AWS-owned keys, giving you greater control over your encryption strategy. Amazon EMR Serverless is a deployment option in Amazon EMR that makes it simple for data engineers and data scientists to run open-source big data analytics frameworks without configuring, managing, and scaling clusters or servers. Local disks on EMR Serverless workers are encrypted by default using AWS-owned keys. With this launch, customers who have strict regulatory and compliance needs can encrypt local disks with AWS KMS customer managed keys (CMKs) in the same account or from another account. This integration is supported on new or existing EMR Serverless applications and on all supported EMR release versions. You can specify the AWS KMS customer managed key at the application level where it applies to all workloads submitted on the application or you can specify the AWS KMS customer managed key for a specific job run or interactive session. This feature is available in all supported EMR Releases and in all AWS Regions where Amazon EMR Serverless is available including AWS GovCloud (US) and China regions. To learn more, see Local Disk Encryption with AWS KMS CMK in the Amazon EMR Serverless User Guide.

AWS Clean Rooms adds support for join and partition hints in SQL

AWS Clean Rooms announces support for join and partition hints for SQL queries, enabling optimization of join strategies and data partitioning for improved query performance and reduced costs. This launch enables you to apply SQL hints to your queries using comment-style syntax in pre-approved analysis templates as well as ad hoc SQL queries. You can now optimize large table joins using a broadcast join hint and you can improve data distribution with partition hints for better parallel processing. For example, a measurement company analyzing how many households viewed a live sports event uses a broadcast join hint on their lookup table to improve query performance and reduce costs. With AWS Clean Rooms, customers can create a secure data clean room in minutes and collaborate with any company on AWS or Snowflake to generate unique insights about advertising campaigns, investment decisions, and research and development. 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.
