AWS Payment Cryptography now available in South America (São Paulo)

AWS Payment Cryptography has expanded its global presence with availability in South America (São Paulo). This expansion enables customers with latency-sensitive payment applications to build, deploy or migrate into additional AWS Regions without depending on cross-region support.
AWS Payment Cryptography is a fully managed service that simplifies payment-specific cryptographic operations and key management for cloud-hosted payment applications. The service scales elastically with your business needs and is assessed as compliant with PCI PIN and PCI P2PE requirements, eliminating the need to maintain dedicated payment HSM instances. Organizations performing payment functions – including acquirers, payment facilitators, networks, switches, processors, and banks can now position their payment cryptographic operations closer to their applications while reducing dependencies on auxiliary data centers with dedicated payment HSMs.
AWS Payment Cryptography is available in the following AWS Regions: Canada (Montreal), US East (Ohio, N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland, Frankfurt, London, Paris), South America (São Paulo), Africa (Cape Town) and Asia Pacific (Singapore, Tokyo, Osaka, Mumbai, Hyderabad).

AWS announces general availability of AWS Interconnect – multicloud

AWS announces general availability (GA) of AWS Interconnect – multicloud, providing simple, resilient, high-speed private connections to other cloud service providers (CSPs). With GA comes Google Cloud as the first launch partner, with Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) coming later in 2026.
Customers have been adopting multicloud strategies while migrating more applications to the cloud. They do so for many reasons including interoperability requirements, the freedom to choose technology that best suits their needs, and the ability to build and deploy applications on any environment with greater ease and speed. Previously, when interconnecting workloads across multiple cloud providers, customers had to go the route of a ‘do-it-yourself’ multicloud approach, leading to complexities of managing global multi-layered networks at scale. AWS Interconnect – multicloud is the first purpose-built product of its kind and a new way of how clouds connect and talk to each other. Simplifying connectivity into AWS, Interconnect – multicloud enables customers to quickly establish private, secure, high-speed network connections with dedicated bandwidth and built-in resiliency between their Amazon VPCs and other cloud environments. Interconnect – multicloud makes it easy to connect AWS resources or VPCs to other CSPs. Customers can also quickly scale connectivity to multiple VPCs or Regions via associating Interconnect with other networking services such as AWS Transit Gateway and AWS Cloud WAN, instead of taking weeks or months. Interconnect – multicloud introduces a new, single-fee pricing structure based on the customer’s selected bandwidth and the geographical scope of the connectivity to other CSPs. Customers can also use one free, local 500Mbps interconnect per Region starting in May. To learn more please see the Interconnect – multicloud Pricing documentation page.
Interconnect – multicloud is available in five AWS Regions. You can enable this capability using the AWS Management Console, Command Line Interface (CLI), or API, and CSPs can also adopt via a published open API package on GitHub. For more information, see the AWS Interconnect – multicloud documentation and pricing pages.

Amazon Quick Introduces Sheet Tooltips for Rich, Contextual Data Exploration

Quick Sight in Amazon Quick now supports sheet tooltips, enabling authors to surface rich, contextual detail when viewers hover over data points — without disrupting their analysis flow. Sheet tooltips allow authors to create dedicated tooltip sheets containing visuals, text boxes, and images arranged in a free-form layout. When a viewer hovers over a data point, the tooltip sheet automatically inherits all filters from the source visual and applies an additional filter for the specific data point, delivering an instant, focused breakdown.
This enhancement helps organizations build more intuitive dashboards that reduce the need for multiple sheets or manual navigation. For example, a bar chart showing sales by product category can surface a trend line of monthly sales, a year-over-year growth KPI, and a text box with the category name — all filtered to whichever category the viewer hovers over. Authors can assign one tooltip sheet to multiple visuals, switch between basic, detailed, and sheet tooltip types at any time, and tables and pivot tables are also supported. Sheet tooltips are available on interactive sheets only.
This feature is now available in all Amazon Quick regions where Quick Sight is supported. Learn more about how to use sheet tooltips in Amazon Quick and read more about this new feature in our blog post.
