AWS announces significant improvements to the Transactions view in the AWS Billing and Cost Management Console’s Payments page, delivering faster performance, simplified payment reconciliation, and improved data accuracy. The enhanced view provides customers with a unified interface to manage all their financial transactions, improving visibility and reducing the time spent on payment tracking.

The enhanced view delivers improved performance, with pages loading in mili seconds instead of minutes. Even customers with tens of thousands of transactions can now access their complete transaction history without timeouts. The enhanced view introduces new capabilities including comprehensive balance tracking, clear transaction status indicators, and advanced filtering options. Key improvements include consolidated visibility into invoice statuses, clear +/- indicators for amounts owed versus funds available, and the ability to view records in a single view without performance impact. For organizations using Billing Transfer , the new “Usage Consolidation Account” column makes it easier to track transactions across multiple accounts.

This feature was made available to all customers on January 12, 2026, in all AWS commercial regions.

To learn more about managing your transactions, visit the AWS Billing and Cost Management documentation. For additional information about managing your AWS payments and billing, see the AWS Billing Console User Guide .

API keys for Amazon Bedrock are now available in AWS GovCloud (US) regions, expanding a feature that simplifies authentication and accelerates generative AI development. Originally launched in commercial AWS regions in July 2025, API keys for Amazon Bedrock enable developers to quickly generate access credentials directly within the Amazon Bedrock console or AWS SDK without needing to manually configure IAM principals and policies.

With the introduction of API keys for Amazon Bedrock, developers can generate short-term and long-term API keys directly from the Amazon Bedrock console or API to authenticate API calls to Amazon Bedrock models. Short-term API keys are valid for the duration of your console session, or up to 12 hours, whichever is shorter. Long-term API keys give you the flexibility to define key validity duration and manage the keys from the AWS IAM console.

Bedrock API key authentication is now available in the AWS GovCloud (US) and commercial AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock is available.

To learn more about API keys in Amazon Bedrock, visit the API Keys documentation in the Amazon Bedrock user guide , or check out our blog for code snippets and implementation examples.

AWS Transform custom now supports AWS PrivateLink and is available in a new AWS Region, Europe (Frankfurt), in addition to the US East (N. Virginia) Region. AWS Transform custom helps organizations reduce technical debt by automating repetitive transformation tasks such as language version upgrades, API migrations, and framework updates. The agent is designed for enterprise development teams and consulting partners who need to execute consistent, repeatable code transformations across large codebases.

With AWS Transform custom, teams can create custom transformation definitions using natural language, documentation, and code samples, or use AWS-managed transformations for common scenarios including Java, Python, and Node.js version upgrades. Through continual learning, the service improves transformation quality with every execution over time. With AWS PrivateLink support, customers can now access AWS Transform custom from their Amazon VPC without routing traffic over the public internet, helping meet security and compliance requirements.

Amazon Redshift Serverless introduces queue-based query resource management. You can create dedicated query queues with customized monitoring rules for different workloads. This feature provides granular control over resource usage. Queues let you set metrics-based predicates and automated responses. For example, you can configure rules to automatically abort queries that exceed time limits or consume too many resources.

Previously, Query Monitoring Rules (QMR) were applied only at the Redshift Serverless workgroup level, affecting all queries run in this workgroup uniformly. The new queue-based approach lets you create queues with distinct monitoring rules. You can assign these queues to specific user roles and query groups. Each queue operates independently, with rules affecting only the queries within that queue. The available monitoring metrics can be found in Query monitoring metrics for Amazon Redshift Serverless .

This feature is available in all AWS regions that support Amazon Redshift Serverless. You can manage QMR with queues through the AWS Console and Redshift APIs.

For implementation details, see the documentation in the Amazon Redshift management guide.
