Amazon WorkSpaces Applications now supports host-to-client URL redirection - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Amazon WorkSpaces Applications now supports host-to-client URL redirection, which automatically launches URLs from streaming sessions in the user's local browser. Administrators can configure allow and deny URL patterns through the AWS Management Console to control which web content is redirected, enabling organizations to keep sensitive applications securely within the streaming environment while offloading resource-intensive content such as video streaming to local devices. With host-to-client URL redirection, organizations reduce the load on streaming infrastructure by shifting bandwidth-heavy web workloads to local devices, lowering infrastructure costs without impacting the end-user experience. The feature works for browser navigation and embedded links in applications such as Microsoft Word, with support for Chrome and Edge web browsers on the streaming host. URLs in the configured allow list open in the user's local default browser automatically. Host-to-client URL r...

Amazon CloudWatch Logs Insights supports querying by log group tags - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Amazon CloudWatch Logs Insights query language now supports querying log groups using tags, making it easier to analyze logs without listing the log groups explicitly. In addition to querying logs by log group names, data sources, and facets, customers can now query using log group tags. Tags are key-value pairs that customers can assign to log groups to categorize them — for example, Environment: Production, Application: PaymentService, or Owner: TeamName. With this launch, customers can run a query across all log groups that share common tags. As log group tags are added or removed, queries automatically reflect the matching log groups, reducing operational overhead as environments grow. Querying by log group tags is available today in all commercial AWS Regions. To learn more, see the Amazon CloudWatch Logs documentation . Post Updated on May 5, 2026

AWS IoT Core now supports customer managed domains in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

AWS IoT Core now supports customer managed domains in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. Customer managed domains (also known as custom domains), allow you to configure custom domain names, use your own server certificates stored in AWS Certificate Manager, attach custom authorizers , and create multiple data endpoints for your account. Custom domains provide long-term stability of TLS behavior, domain names, and their trust chain for device deployments. They also help you enable separate domain configurations for heterogeneous device fleets, and simplify migration of existing devices to AWS IoT Core. For example, by configuring custom domain names and custom authorizers for your data endpoints, you can keep using the same domain names and authentication methods your devices already know. This means you don't need to update device credentials or CA certificates during migration to AWS IoT Core, minimizing software updates on devices already in the field. With the expansion to the...
