CloudWatch Omni opens incident investigation to staff without AWS console access

AWS's CloudWatch Omni, generally available since September 23, lets Okta and Entra ID users investigate incidents without AWS console access. CloudWatch dashboard sharing has let outsiders view prebuilt graphs since 2020, so what Omni adds is the investigation itself, one of the reasons teams paid for third-party platforms.

AWS's new getting-started path pauses a project when it hits its spend limit

Signing up now takes a Google, GitHub or Apple identity and, for most new customers, no card, with $100 in credits. Each project is a real AWS account carrying a monthly ceiling from $20 that AWS enforces by stopping the work.

Jamf enforces per-engineer Bedrock budgets by rewriting an IAM policy every 15 minutes

The loop reads Bedrock invocation logs through Athena, prices them at published rates, and denies Claude Opus at 80 percent of an engineer's daily budget. It transfers only if every model call carries a federated user identity.

AWS hands Identity Center assignment reporting to a sample solution you run yourself

The discovery sample walks the Identity Center instances in an organization and writes assignments to a queryable store plus CSV, which covers three of the four questions AWS poses and leaves last access to something else.

Console Private Access pulls the AWS console's static assets off the public internet

General availability landed August 28 for VPCs with no internet path, and the same endpoints let you turn away valid credentials presented from the wrong network, which stops personal-account sign-ins from the corporate LAN.
