Starting today, Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) is increasing the rate at which you can pull container images, and introducing simplified quotas (also called limits) for image APIs. Image pull quotas are now between five to ten times higher than before, enabling you to increase the rate at which you use ECR to deploy container images without worrying about API throttling. 

You can use Amazon DynamoDB backup and restore to create on-demand and continuous backups of your DynamoDB tables and then restore from those backups. Starting today, you also can restore table backups as new tables in other AWS Regions.  

You can now add tags, simple labels consisting of a user-defined key and an optional value, to your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) gateway endpoints , interface endpoints (AWS PrivateLink) , and endpoint services (AWS PrivateLink) directly while creating the resource. By tagging resources at the time of creation, you can eliminate the need to run custom tagging scripts after resource creation.
