AWS Lambda Provisioned Mode for SQS Event-Source Mappings

🔔 AWS Lambda now offers Provisioned Mode for SQS event-source mappings (ESMs), letting you provision persistent event pollers to handle sudden traffic spikes. Provisioned ESMs scale up to 3x faster (up to 1,000 concurrent executions/min) and support up to 16x higher concurrency (up to 20,000 concurrent executions), reducing latency for bursty workloads. The feature is generally available in all AWS Commercial Regions and is configurable via the Console, API, CLI, SDK, CloudFormation, and SAM; billing is by Event Poller Units (EPU).

Amazon SQS Adds IPv6 and FIPS 140-3 in GovCloud Regions

🔒 Amazon SQS now supports API requests over IPv6 in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, with the new endpoints validated under FIPS 140-3. Customers can choose IPv6 or IPv4 when sending requests over dual‑stack public or VPC endpoints. This update brings parity across Regions: Amazon SQS now supports IPv6 in AWS Commercial, AWS GovCloud (US), and China Regions. Refer to the developer guide for configuration details.

Amazon EventBridge Adds SQS Fair Queue Target Support

🚀 Amazon EventBridge now supports sending events directly to Amazon SQS fair queues, improving message distribution across consumer groups and reducing noisy-neighbor effects in multi-tenant systems. You can choose a fair queue as an EventBridge target via the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or AWS SDKs and must supply a MessageGroupID, either as a static value or using a JSON path. Fair queues let multiple consumers process messages from the same tenant concurrently while keeping processing times consistent. Support for Fair Queue and FIFO targets is available in all AWS commercial and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.

Automating Security Hub Exceptions with Business Context

🔒 This post describes an automated approach to validate and document exceptions to AWS Security Hub findings, enabling security teams to enforce governance while developers request and implement compensating controls. The solution leverages EventBridge, SQS, Lambda, and DynamoDB to validate controls, collect evidence, and maintain an immutable audit trail. It preserves segregation of duties, supports multiple validation types, and includes deployment scripts and CloudFormation templates. The authors emphasize the reference architecture is a starting point and must be reviewed and adapted before production use.
