AWS Transfer for SFTP (AWS SFTP) customers can now whitelist client IP addresses using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) Security Groups, providing an additional layer of security to their SFTP servers.

The AWS Well-Architected Tool now offers you a simple way to share workloads with other AWS accounts. Many customers use multiple AWS accounts to provide administrative autonomy for their teams. With Workload Shares, you can now create workloads in the AWS account of your choice and share them with AWS accounts used by other members of your review team or with a centralized AWS account. This feature enables shared visibility into High Risk Issues (HRIs) identified in workloads and streamlines collaboration with other workload reviewers, such as a Cloud Center of Excellence Lead, a member of your AWS account team or an AWS Well-Architected Partner Program member. The Workload Shares feature can help you manage and drive down HRIs over time without requiring direct access to the AWS account where the workload is defined. 

You can now read The Amazon Builders’ Library in 16 different languages: Arabic, Indonesian, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, French, Vietnamese, Turkish, Russian, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, and the original English.

This feature is available now in Amazon Cognito User Pools at no additional cost.
