AWS CloudFormation StackSets launches ListStackSetAutoDeploymentTargets API that allows customers to list existing target Organizational Units (OUs) and AWS Regions for a given stack set. With this launch, customers get visibility into the list of Regions where StackSets will auto-deploy stacks when a new account is added to target OUs. Customers no longer have to log into individual accounts under a given OU to get this information. Customers instead can get this Region combination for all target OUs of a given stack set in a single preview.

AWS Secrets Manager launched a new capability that allows customers to create and rotate user credentials for Amazon Redshift Serverless. Amazon Redshift Serverless allows you to run and scale analytics without having to provision and manage data warehouse clusters. With this launch, you can now create and set up automatic rotation for your user credentials for Amazon Redshift Serverless data warehouse directly from the AWS Secrets Manager console.

For a complete list of supported features, improvements, and bug fixes please see Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink in our documentation .
