Amazon WorkSpaces now offers an API to create a new WorkSpace Image from a WorkSpace instance. Previously, this functionality was available only through the Amazon WorkSpaces console. After this launch, you can apply all the applications and operating system updates on a WorkSpace and use this API to create a new Image. Once the new image is created, you can test it before updating your production bundles or sharing the image with other AWS accounts. With this launch you can fully automate your WorkSpaces CI/CD pipelines and keep your WorkSpaces images up-to-date as per your regulatory standards.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) announces expansion of AWS Ground Station to the Asia Pacific (Singapore) Region. This is the 11th AWS Ground Station antenna location connected to the AWS Global Network. AWS Ground Station is a fully managed service that lets customers control satellite communications, process satellite data, and scale satellite operations. Global expansion to Singapore enables increased opportunities for satellite operators to connect with their satellites and process their space workloads. An additional mid-latitude AWS Ground Station antenna location reduces the time between contacts for Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites and offers increased utility for customers whose operations require payload downlink. Governments, businesses, and universities can benefit from more timely satellite data to make precise, data-driven decisions.
