Amazon Aurora DSQL now supports FIPS 140-3 compliant endpoints

Amazon Aurora DSQL now supports Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-3 compliant endpoints, helping companies contracting with the US federal governments meet the FIPS security requirement to encrypt sensitive data in supported Regions. With this launch, you can use Aurora DSQL for workloads that require a FIPS 140-3 validated cryptographic module when sending requests over public or VPC endpoints.

Aurora DSQL is the fastest serverless, distributed SQL database with single- and multi-Region clusters providing active-active high availability and strong consistency. Aurora DSQL enables you to build applications with virtually unlimited scalability, the highest availability, and zero infrastructure management.

Aurora DSQL FIPS compliant endpoints are now available in the following regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), and US West (Oregon). To learn more about FIPS 140-3 at AWS, visit FIPS 140-3 Compliance.
