- Platform/SRE — Plan: If ‘record all resource types’ is enabled, these 77 types—including EC2, GuardDuty, Inspector, and S3—will be tracked automatically, which quietly expands coverage and may increase Config costs. Review the new type list against your compliance rules and cost baseline this quarter.

- Platform/SRE — Learn: M8i instances are now available in the AWS European Sovereign Cloud (Germany) region, offering up to 20% better performance than M7i for general-purpose and database workloads. Worth evaluating if you operate workloads in that region, but no deadline or forced migration.

- Platform/SRE — Learn: New instance family now available in the EU Sovereign Cloud region; worth noting for teams operating compute-intensive workloads there, but no deadline or forced migration — evaluate during next capacity-planning cycle.

- Platform/SRE — Plan: New GA Config coverage for resources platform teams commonly operate — EKS::PodIdentityAssociation, RDS::DBProxy, EC2 route servers, and Organizations::Policy — is worth enabling in your Config recording and aggregator configuration this quarter to close compliance gaps. No deadline, but teams already using Config for compliance should audit which of the 60 new types overlap with their environment.

- Platform/SRE — Learn: Regional expansion of Graviton4 NVMe-backed instances is worth noting if you run I/O-intensive workloads in Singapore, Melbourne, Zurich, or Mexico — no forced migration, just new capacity options to evaluate when rightsizing or expanding footprint.

- Platform/SRE — Learn: Relevant only if you have workloads targeting Greece or EMEA data-residency requirements; no action needed unless expanding into that region.

- Leader — Learn: Worth noting if the org has Greek or EMEA in-country data-residency obligations; no strategic decision required unless expansion into that market is on the roadmap.
- Signals: GA announcement
- Platform/SRE — Learn: Regional availability expansion for a specialized ultra-high-memory instance tier — worth knowing if you operate SAP HANA, Oracle, or SQL Server workloads with EU data residency requirements, but no operational change needed unless that’s your workload.
- CI/CD — Skip
- Leader — Learn: If the org runs large in-memory databases and has EU data residency constraints, Paris region availability of the 24 TiB tier may inform infrastructure placement decisions, but no immediate strategic action is required.
