Amazon S3 Express One Zone now supports granular access controls with S3 Access Points

Amazon S3 Express One Zone, a high-performance S3 storage class for latency-sensitive applications, now supports granular access controls using S3 Access Points. With S3 Access Points you can refine access based on specific prefixes or API actions.

Now you can create tailored access policies for teams, applications, or individuals accessing data in S3 Express One Zone. Each access point provides a unique hostname, customizable permissions for granular access controls, and the ability to restrict access to a Virtual Private Cloud. S3 Access Points can help with various use cases such as data ingestion with write-only permissions, analytics processing with read-only access, or cross-account data sharing with specific restrictions.

S3 Express One Zone support for granular access controls with S3 Access Points is available in all AWS Regions where the storage class is available. You can get started with S3 Access Points using the AWS Management Console, Amazon S3 REST API, AWS Command Line Interface, or the AWS Software Development Kit. To learn more about S3 Access Points, visit the S3 User Guide.

Amazon OpenSearch Service adds support for Script Plugins

Amazon OpenSearch Service now supports Script Plugins that allow you to add new scripting languages or custom scripting functionality to OpenSearch for operations like scoring, sorting, and field value transformations during search or indexing.

Until now, you could extend Search and Analysis functions of OpenSearch using custom plugins. With this launch, you can implement the ScriptPlugin interface as part of your custom plugin to extend scripting functionality in OpenSearch. You can use the OpenSearch Service console or APIs to upload and associate the custom plugin with your domains. OpenSearch Service validates plugin package for version compatibility, security, and permitted plugin operations.

Script Plugins are now supported on all Amazon OpenSearch Service domains running OpenSearch version 2.15 or later, and are available in 14 regions globally: US West (Oregon), US East (Ohio), US East (N. Virginia), South America (Sao Paulo), Europe(Paris), Europe (London), Europe (Ireland), Europe (Frankfurt), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Seoul) and Asia Pacific (Mumbai).

AWS Security Hub now supports NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2

AWS Security Hub now supports automated security checks that align with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-171 Revision 2 (NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 2). NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 2 is a cybersecurity and compliance framework developed by NIST, an agency that’s part of the U.S. Department of Commerce. This compliance framework provides recommended security requirements for protecting the confidentiality of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) in systems and organizations that aren’t part of the U.S. federal government. In Security Hub, the NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 2 standard includes 63 automated controls that perform automated checks against AWS resources to evaluate compliance with NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 2 requirements.

The new standard is now available in all AWS Regions where Security Hub is currently available, including the AWS GovCloud (US) and the China Regions. To quickly enable the standard across your AWS environment, we recommend that you use Security Hub central configuration. With this approach, you can enable the standard in all or only some of your organization’s accounts and across all AWS Regions that are linked to Security Hub with a single action.

To learn more, see NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2 in the AWS Security Hub User Guide. To receive notifications about new Security Hub features and controls, subscribe to the Security Hub SNS topic. You can also try Security Hub at no cost for 30 days with the AWS Free Tier offering.

AWS Cost Explorer now offers new Cost Comparison feature

AWS announces Cost Comparison, a new AWS Cost Explorer capability that helps customers understand cost changes between two months. Cost Comparison automatically detects significant cost changes between two months and surfaces the key factors driving these changes. With this launch, customers can now effortlessly gain insights into their monthly cost changes across their organization and quickly identify key drivers of spending changes.

Cost Comparison streamlines the time-consuming process of cost analysis by automatically identifying the most substantial cost changes across services, accounts, and Regions. It eliminates the need to switch between different views in Cost Explorer or export data to spreadsheets for manual comparison. The feature provides detailed breakdowns of cost drivers, including usage changes, credits, refunds, and volume discounts impacts. A new Top Trends widget on the AWS Billing and Cost Management console home page shows the top 10 cost variations between the previous two months. For deeper analysis, customers can use the new Compare view within AWS Cost Explorer. This view offers comprehensive cost analysis capabilities, with insights into cost drivers that reveal changes between any two selected months in usage, credits, refunds, and volume discount impacts.

Cost Comparison is available at no additional cost in all AWS commercial Regions, excluding AWS China Regions. To get started, customers can visit the AWS Billing and Cost Management console and view the Top Trends widget on the home page, or navigate to Cost Explorer and choose «Compare» in the Report Parameters panel. To learn more, see the AWS Cost Explorer documentation.

AWS Network Firewall Adds Support for Multiple VPC Endpoints

AWS Network Firewall now supports configuring multiple VPC endpoints for a single firewall. This new capability gives you more options to scale your Network Firewall deployment across multiple Amazon Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), using a centralized security policy.

AWS Network Firewall is a managed, cloud-native firewall service that makes it easy to deploy essential network protections for all your Amazon VPCs. A Network Firewall instance is deployed within a VPC subnet, with a VPC endpoint providing a secure connection to the firewall. Now you can associate up to 50 VPC endpoints per Availability Zone with the firewall and route traffic through the firewall for inspection, reducing operational complexity and lowering costs as you protect more VPCs.

The multiple VPC endpoints feature is supported in all AWS Regions where AWS Network Firewall is available today, including the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions and China Regions.

You can enable multiple VPC endpoints from the Amazon VPC Console or the Network Firewall API. To learn more about this feature and pricing, please see the AWS Network Firewall product page and service documentation.

Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP now supports write-back mode for ONTAP FlexCache volumes

Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP, a service that provides fully managed shared storage built on NetApp’s popular ONTAP file system, now supports write-back mode for ONTAP FlexCache volumes. Write-back mode is a new ONTAP capability that helps you achieve faster performance for your write-intensive workloads that are distributed across multiple AWS Regions and on-premises file systems.

FlexCache is an ONTAP caching technology that enables distributed access to data. Previously, FlexCache only supported write-around mode, where every write operation to a FlexCache volume had to go back to the origin volume before it was acknowledged, increasing write latency. Starting today, FSx for ONTAP now supports the new write-back mode for FlexCache. Write-back mode improves the performance of write-heavy workloads by caching writes locally on FlexCache volumes and asynchronously updating the origin volume, reducing write latency. You can now use write-back mode to improve write performance for write-intensive distributed applications such as collaborative content creation, distributed databases, and engineering workflows that need to operate across multiple AWS Regions or between cloud and on-premises environments.

Starting today, you can enable FlexCache write-back mode at no additional cost on all FSx for ONTAP file systems in all AWS Regions where the service is available. For more information, refer to the FSx for ONTAP User Guide.
