AWS Resilience Hub now automatically detects and integrates existing Amazon CloudWatch alarms into its resilience assessments, providing a more comprehensive view of your application’s resilience posture. This new capability combines AWS Resilience Hub recommendations with your current monitoring setup to streamline alarm management and enhance assessment accuracy.

As part of Operational Recommendations, AWS Resilience Hub advises setting up Amazon CloudWatch alarms to monitor application resilience. With this update, Resilience Hub now identifies and includes any relevant Amazon CloudWatch alarms you’ve already configured, eliminating the need for manual entry. Alarms that align with Resilience Hub’s recommendations are marked as «Implemented,» minimizing redundant suggestions. By incorporating your existing alarms into the resilience score, AWS Resilience Hub now offers a more accurate assessment of application resilience.

The new capabilities are available in all of the AWS Regions where Resilience Hub is supported. See the AWS Regional Services List for the most up-to-date availability information.

To learn more about this feature and how it can benefit your applications, visit the AWS Resilience Hub product page.

You can now use Amazon Route 53 Resolver endpoints for hybrid cloud configurations in the Asia Pacific (Thailand) and Mexico (Central) Regions. With this launch, you also have the option to enable Route 53 Resolver endpoints in the Asia Pacific (Thailand) and Mexico (Central) Regions with DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH).

Amazon Route 53 is a highly available and scalable cloud Domain Name System (DNS) service. Amazon Route 53 Resolver endpoints make hybrid cloud configurations easier to manage by enabling seamless DNS query resolution across your entire hybrid cloud. Create Route 53 Resolver endpoints and conditional forwarding rules to allow resolution of DNS namespaces between your on-premises data center and Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). You can also opt-in to use DoH on the endpoints (both inbound and outbound) and create rules to forward DoH traffic to destinations of your choice, to ensure DNS traffic across your hybrid cloud is encrypted via DoH.

Visit the AWS Region Table to see all AWS Regions where Amazon Route 53 Resolver is available. Please visit our product page to learn more about Amazon Route 53 Resolver and pricing.

AWS Elastic Beanstalk now supports functionality that makes it easy to update a Beanstalk environment status when it enters into an invalid state during an update failure.

With AWS Elastic Beanstalk, you can easily deploy and manage applications in AWS without worrying about the infrastructure that runs those applications. However, there can be situations where a Beanstalk environment can become unavailable when the stack associated with it goes into an invalid status. Previously, when that happened, customers needed to contact AWS support to update their Beanstalk environment status in order to proceed. Now, Beanstalk will prompt you with a request to fix your underlying stack. You’ll be directed to a guide that walks you through the process step-by-step. Once you’ve made the adjustments, simply retry the request. Beanstalk will then automatically set the environment to available and complete the operation, minimizing downtime and complexity.

AWS Elastic Beanstalk environment recovery is generally available in commercial regions where Elastic Beanstalk is available including the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. For a complete list of regions and service offerings, see AWS Regions.

For more information about the recovery process see the Elastic Beanstalk developer guide. To learn more about Elastic Beanstalk, visit the Elastic Beanstalk product page.

AWS AppSync GraphQL is a fully managed service that helps developers create flexible GraphQL APIs that connect to data, events, and AI models. AppSync GraphQL can connect applications to various data sources, including Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL and Amazon Aurora MySQL. AppSync GraphQL now offers enhanced utilities for Amazon RDS in JavaScript resolvers. This update expands existing capabilities and introduces new aggregate functions.

The enhancement adds new functionality to the select utility and makes it easier to build safe and accurate SQL select statements. Developers can now use a variety of join types, including inner, left, right, and full outer joins, as well as their natural counterparts. New aggregate helpers, such as min, max, sum, avg, and count (including distinct variants) makes it easier to build queries that use the “group by” and “having” statement. The select utility now supports aliases for tables and columns, and allows developers to mix in the sql tagged template to write custom where and join conditions.

These enhancements are available in all AWS Regions where AWS AppSync is offered.

To learn more about this built-in module, visit the AWS AppSync documentation. You can start using these enhancements today by updating your resolver code in the AWS AppSync console.

AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) Roles Anywhere today released version 1.4.0 of the credential helper, introducing built-in compatibility with Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0. With this release, the credential helper can directly utilize X.509 certificates and associated private keys stored in TPMs on Windows or Linux systems. Keys remain within their secure hardware store, which can help improve your security posture.

IAM Roles Anywhere enables workloads that run outside of AWS, such as servers, containers, and applications, to use X.509 digital certificates to obtain temporary AWS credentials and access AWS resources using the same IAM roles and policies that you have configured for your AWS workloads to access AWS resources. IAM Roles Anywhere is compatible with certificates issued by any X.509-compliant PKI provider.

IAM Roles Anywhere credential helper is a tool that automates the process of signing CreateSession API with the private key associated with an X.509 end-entity certificate and calls the endpoint to obtain temporary AWS credentials. The credential helper includes PKCS #11 compatibility to leverage private keys from any hardware or software secure store your infrastructure trusts. With today’s release, developers have additional flexibility to directly leverage a TPM as the secure hardware store, thereby can help improving security posture while also reducing complexity.

The IAM Roles Anywhere credential helper source code is available on GitHub. For more information on credential helper v1.4.0, see the release note.
