You can now create Apache Airflow version 2.5 environments on Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA). Apache Airflow 2.5 is the latest minor release of the popular open-source tool that helps customers author, schedule, and monitor workflows.

Amazon MWAA is a managed orchestration service for Apache Airflow that makes it easier to set up and operate end-to-end data pipelines in the cloud. With Apache Airflow version 2.5 on Amazon MWAA, customers can enjoy the same scalability, availability, security, and ease of management that Amazon MWAA offers with the improvements of Apache Airflow 2.5, such as annotations for DAG runs and task instances, auto-refresh for task log view, and a better dataset user-interface. Apache Airflow version 2.5 on Amazon MWAA includes Python version 3.10 and comes pre-installed with recently released Amazon Provider Package version 7.1.0, enabling access to new AWS integrations, such as Amazon SageMaker Pipelines, Amazon SageMaker Model Registry, and Amazon EMR Notebooks.

You can launch a new Apache Airflow 2.5 environment on Amazon MWAA with just a few clicks in the AWS Management Console in all currently supported Amazon MWAA regions.
