Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager now supports (IPv6) in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions

Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager now offers customers the option to use Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses for their new and existing endpoints. Customers moving to IPv6 can simplify their networks stack by running their Data Lifecycle Manager dual-stack endpoints on a network supporting both IPv4 and IPv6, depending on the protocol used by their network and client.

Customers create Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager policies to automate the creation, retention, and management of EBS Snapshots and EBS-backed Amazon Machine Images (AMIs). The policies can also automatically copy created resources across AWS Regions, move EBS Snapshots to EBS Snapshots Archive tier, and manage Fast Snapshot Restore. Customers can also create policies to automate creation and retention of application-consistent EBS Snapshots via pre and post-scripts, as well as create Default Policies for comprehensive protection for their account or AWS Organization.

Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager with IPv6, supported in all AWS Commercial Regions, is now available in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.
