Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) now allows customers to make API requests over Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. The new endpoints have also been validated under the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-3 program. Amazon SNS is a fully managed messaging service that enables publish/subscribe messaging between distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven serverless applications. With this update, customers have the option of using either IPv6 or IPv4 when sending requests over dual-stack public or VPC endpoints.  SNS now supports IPv6 in all Regions where the service is available, including AWS Commercial, AWS GovCloud (US), and China Regions. For more information on using IPv6 with Amazon SNS, please refer to our developer guide.

https://aws.amazon.com/sns/ now supports additional endpoints that have been validated under the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-3 program in AWS Regions in the United States and Canada. FIPS compliant endpoints help companies contracting with the US federal government meet the FIPS security requirement to encrypt sensitive data in supported regions. With this expansion, you can use Amazon SNS for workloads that require a FIPS 140-3 validated cryptographic module when sending requests over dual-stack public or VPC endpoints. Amazon SNS FIPS compliant endpoints are now available in the following regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Canada West (Calgary) and AWS GovCloud (US). To learn more about FIPS 140-3 at AWS, visit https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/fips/.
