AWS User Notifications is now supported on AWS CloudFormation, allowing you to easily provision and manage User Notification resources as part of your application's infrastructure-as-code (IaC). You can easily use User Notification to Configure Notifications to be sent via the Console Notifications Center, email, AWS Chatbot, or mobile push notifications to the AWS Console Mobile App to keep you informed about important events like Amazon CloudWatch Alarms. With this new capability, you can define Notification Configurations as part of your IaC practices. Specify notification configurations for specific resource types within your CloudFormation templates. For example, set up notifications to trigger when an Auto Scaling group scales out, an ELB is provisioned, or an RDS database is modified. You have granular control over which events will trigger notifications and who should receive them. This integration simplifies cloud operations by consolidating monitoring configuration right alongside your IaC templates. No more context switching between services - your notifications are defined declaratively within your infrastructure code. Setting up stack notifications is easy - just add the Notifications or NotificationContacts resource type (e.g., AWS::Notifications::NotificationConfiguration) in your CloudFormation template to configure the desired events and channels. For more information, visit the https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/AWS_Notifications.html and https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/AWS_NotificationsContacts.html resource type reference.

Today we are announcing the integration of AWS CloudFormation Hooks with AWS Cloud Control API (CCAPI). This integration enables the use of hooks to validate the configuration of resources being provisioned through CCAPI. In this blog post, we will explore the integration between CloudFormation Hooks and CCAPI by configuring an existing hook to work with [...]

Today, AWS CloudFormation introduced a new resource scanning workflow for the CloudFormation IaC generator, further simplifying the process of generating Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) templates for existing resources in your AWS account. IaC generator allows you to onboard existing resources to CloudFormation in three easy steps. First, you initiate a scan of resources in your AWS account. Second, you select resources for template generation and review suggestions for related resources. Third, a CloudFormation template is generated for selected resources. You can then import resources into a CloudFormation stack, download the template for deployment, or convert the template into a CDK app in your preferred programming language, such as TypeScript or Python. With this launch, you can specify the resource types that IaC generator will cover in the resource scanning step. Instead of scanning all resources by default, you can now focus only on the resources relevant to your workload, reducing scan time and effort. This improves the efficiency of the template generation process and streamlines iterative workflows, such as migration of a prototype workload to CloudFormation. To get started, open the AWS CloudFormation Console and select IaC generator in the navigation panel. You can also use IaC generator from the AWS CLI and AWS SDK.

AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) now supports AWS PrivateLink so that you can access ACM APIs from your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) without traversing the public internet. This feature can help you meet compliance requirements by allowing you to access and use ACM APIs entirely within the AWS network. ACM simplifies the process of provisioning and managing public and private TLS certificates, wherever you need to securely terminate traffic; Whether it’s with integrated AWS services such as Amazon CloudFront, Load Balancing or with hybrid workloads. You can now create interface endpoints in AWS Private Link to connect your VPC to ACM. Communication between your VPC and ACM is then conducted entirely within the AWS network, providing a secure pathway for your data. To get started, you can create an AWS PrivateLink to connect to ACM using the AWS Management Console or AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) commands or AWS CloudFormation. This new feature is available in all AWS Regions including AWS GovCloud (US) and China Regions where AWS Certificate Manager Service and AWS PrivateLink are available. For more information, please refer to the AWS PrivateLink documentation.
