AWS Capabilities by Region now offers availability notifications for individual features and advanced filters

Today, AWS announces feature-level availability notifications and advanced filters for AWS Capabilities by Region in AWS Builder Center. You can now set availability notifications for AWS service, or to an individual feature of an AWS service, in the AWS Regions you are interested in, and receive an in-app notification and a weekly email digest covering all the capabilities that became available since you enabled availability notifications. Setting availability notifications for a service covers every feature within it, and an ‘All regions’ option covers every Region, including AWS Regions that launch in the future.\nIn addition to the feature level availability notifications , you can now filter API operations and CloudFormation resources by availability status and compare Regions to show all capabilities, only matching ones, or only differences. With over 19,000 API operations and more than 5,000 CloudFormation resource types, these filters quickly narrow a full listing down to the exact differences between Regions, working alongside search and existing display preferences.  Comparing capabilities in AWS Capabilities by Region requires no account. Setting up availability notifications requires a Builder ID, which is free. To get started, visit AWS Capabilities by Region on AWS Builder Center. To learn more, explore the AWS Builder Center FAQ

AWS Config now supports 77 new resource types

AWS Config now supports 77 additional AWS resource types across key services including Amazon EC2, Amazon S3 Files, and Amazon Q Business. This expansion provides greater coverage over your AWS environment, enabling you to more effectively discover, assess, audit, and remediate an even broader range of resources.\nWith this launch, if you have enabled recording for all resource types, then AWS Config will automatically track these new additions. The newly supported resource types are also available in Config rules and Config aggregators. You can now use AWS Config to monitor the following newly supported resource types in all AWS Regions where the resources are available: AWS::ApplicationAutoScaling::ScalableTarget AWS::GuardDuty::ThreatEntitySet AWS::PCS::Queue

Claude Haiku 5.5 is now available on AWS

AWS now offers Claude Haiku 5.5, the fastest and most efficient model in the Claude 5.5 family, built for subagents and high-volume, cost-sensitive work. According to Anthropic, it costs around 75% less than Claude Haiku 4.5 for most tasks.\nClaude Haiku 5.5 is Anthropic’s most capable Haiku yet, a significant step up from Haiku 4.5 across coding, tool use, computer use, and agents. It’s also the first Haiku with effort controls, so teams can tune cost against intelligence for each task. Haiku 5.5 fits work where speed and cost matter most: real-time experiences like voice agents, live support, and in-app assistants, and high-volume tasks like classification, summarization, and pulling key fields from documents. It’s also a fast, cost-efficient subagent. A more capable model like Claude Opus 5.5 can plan the work and hand off well-defined coding, tool use, and browser automation tasks to Haiku, making it practical to run many agents in parallel. Customers have two ways to access Claude Haiku 5.5: Amazon Bedrock and Claude Platform on AWS. Amazon Bedrock gives you Haiku’s capabilities while keeping your data within AWS infrastructure with regional data residency and provides access through a unified service with AWS-managed features like Guardrails and Knowledge Bases. To learn more, see the Amazon Bedrock documentation and regional availability. Claude Platform on AWS gives you direct access to Anthropic’s native platform experience and capabilities via the AWS Console. Build, test, and deploy with the same APIs, features, and console experience you’d get working with Anthropic directly, unified with AWS billing and authentication. To get started, see the Claude Platform on AWS documentation.
