Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES) now enables you to deploy your instances across three Availability Zones (AZs) providing better availability for your domains. If you enable replicas for your Elasticsearch indices, Amazon Elasticsearch Service distributes the primary and replica shards across nodes in different AZs to maximize availability.

Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) now offers greater insight into the usage of Amazon MSK resources through 19 new metrics published to Amazon CloudWatch. These metrics offer customers additional visibility into resource utilization across CPU, storage, and the network, enabling customers to maximize the performance and uptime of their Apache Kafka applications interacting with Amazon MSK.

Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) now supports Boolean DB parameter expressions in PostgreSQL parameter groups, which enables database administrators to optimize more database configurations with fewer parameter groups.

IAM Access Analyzer helps you achieve least privilege by generating fine-grained policies that specify the required actions for more than 50 services. In April 2021, IAM Access Analyzer added policy generation to help you create IAM policies based on your AWS CloudTrail activity. Now, we are extending policy generation to identify actions used for more than 50 services such as Amazon ECR, Amazon Athena, and AWS Security Hub. When you request a policy, IAM Access Analyzer gets to work and generates a policy by analyzing your AWS CloudTrail logs to identify actions used. For other services, IAM Access Analyzer helps you by identifying the services used and guides you to add the necessary actions. The generated policy makes it easier to grant only the required permissions for your workloads.

When you create an AWS DataSync task to transfer your data to and from AWS Storage, you can now specify include filters as well as exclude filters, providing you with even greater control over how your data is transferred. With this enhancement, you can now schedule tasks that utilize both exclude and include filters to transfer only a subset of files in your source location. Additionally, you can now queue multiple executions of a task when the filter settings differ between executions.

The new Amazon DynamoDB console is now your default experience to help you manage data and resources more easily through simpler navigation and by providing you richer contextual information.

The Amazon EC2 Instance Metadata Service, Amazon Time Sync Service, and Amazon VPC DNS server can now be accessed over IPv6 endpoints by instances built on the Nitro System . These local instance services have IPv6 addresses that can be accessed from your Amazon EC2 instances. These IPv6 endpoints use Unique Local Addresses (ULA); IPv6 for local instance services is useful for running software and containers in an IPv6-only single stack configuration. Additionally, if you are starting your transition to IPv6 in a dual-stack environment, the endpoints for the Instance Metadata Service, Amazon Time Sync Service, and Amazon VPC DNS are available over both IPv4 and IPv6.
