Amazon Chime SDK lets developers add intelligent real-time audio, video, screen share, and messaging to their web applications. Media pipelines allows developers to capture the contents from an Amazon Chime SDK meeting. This captured content can then be sent to the Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket of their choice. The content can also be live streamed to reach a large audience via streaming platforms such as Amazon Interactive Video Service (IVS) or AWS Elemental MediaLive. Starting today, the Amazon Chime SDK now has media pipeline API endpoints in Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Canada (Central), and Europe (London).

Customers can now use API endpoints in the same AWS Region for both media pipelines and WebRTC media session. This simplifies application architecture, and enables high availability architectures that use API endpoints in multiple AWS Regions.

The AWS SDK includes a new namespace to use the new API endpoints. To learn more about the Amazon Chime SDK, media pipelines, and how they use AWS Regions and migrating to the new namespace, review the following resources:
