Amazon Location Service adds granular API key restrictions

🔒 AWS has introduced enhanced API key restrictions for Amazon Location Service to help developers secure location-based applications. Keys can now be bound to specific Android applications using package names and SHA-1 certificate fingerprints, or to iOS apps using Bundle IDs, enabling separate keys for testing and production. The feature is available in multiple AWS Regions and is configurable via the console or APIs. This reduces the risk of key misuse and enforces app-level access control.

Amazon Location Service Updates Vietnam Boundaries

🗺️ Amazon Location Service updated Vietnam mapping data to reflect the nationwide administrative reorganization that took effect on July 1, 2025. The refresh consolidates provincial-level units from 63 to 34 (28 provinces and 6 centrally managed cities) and reduces commune-level units from 10,310 to 3,321 while preserving street-level address accuracy. Place names and administrative components in POI records were updated, and the revised data is automatically available to customers querying Vietnam addresses. The update supports logistics, e-commerce, and public-service use cases such as delivery zone planning, service-area management, and address validation.
