Amazon SNS message data protection can now de-identify outbound messages via redaction or masking
Amazon SNS message data protection is a set of capabilities that leverage pattern matching, machine learning models, and content policies to help security and engineering teams facilitate real-time data protection in their applications that use Amazon SNS to exchange high volumes of data. Now, you can de-identify outbound message data within a payload, in real-time, via data redaction or masking. Thus, each endpoint subscribed to your Amazon SNS topic may receive a different payload from the topic, with different sensitive data de-identified, according to their data access permissions.
Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) supports in-place major version upgrade
Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) now supports an in-place major version upgrade (MVU) from Amazon DocumentDB versions 3.6 and 4.0 to version 5.0. Instead of backing up and restoring the database to the new version or relying on database migration tools, you can perform an in-place major version upgrade with a few clicks using the AWS console, the latest AWS Software Development Kit (SDK), or Command Line Interface (CLI). With in-place MVU, no new clusters are created in the process and you can continue using the existing cluster endpoints for your applications.
IAM Roles Anywhere is now available in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions
AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) Roles Anywhere is now available in the AWS GovCloud (US-East) and AWS GovCloud (US-West) Regions. IAM Roles Anywhere enables workloads that run outside of AWS to access AWS resources using IAM roles and policies in the same way you do from your AWS workloads. IAM Roles Anywhere allows your workloads such as servers, containers, and applications to use X.509 digital certificates to obtain temporary AWS credentials.

AWS App Runner launches improvements for Auto-Scaling configuration management
Today, AWS App Runner launched improvements for managing Auto-Scaling Configuration (ASC). App Runner makes it easier for developers to quickly deploy containerized web applications and APIs to the cloud, at scale, and without managing infrastructure. With App Runner, you do not have to manage load balancer for your service(s). App Runner automatically scales compute resources, specifically instances, up or down for your App Runner service. Automatic scaling provides adequate request handling when traffic is heavy, and reduces your cost when traffic slows down. You can control auto scaling settings through a sharable resource called AutoScalingConfiguration.
Amazon Connect launches CloudFormation support for security profiles
Amazon Connect now supports AWS CloudFormation for security profiles. You can now use AWS CloudFormation templates to deploy Amazon Connect security profiles —along with the rest of your AWS infrastructure— in a secure, efficient, and repeatable way, allowing you to apply consistent security policies across instances. CloudFormation allows you to track changes over time, apply updates in a controlled and automated manner, and includes version controls so you can easy roll back changes if needed. For more information, see Amazon Connect Resource Type Reference in the AWS CloudFormation User Guide.
