AWS CloudFormation Hooks is now available in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions
AWS CloudFormation Hooks is now generally available in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. With this launch, customers can deploy Hooks in these newly supported AWS Regions to help keep resources secure and compliant.
With CloudFormation Hooks, you can invoke custom logic to automate actions or inspect resource configurations prior to a create, update or delete CloudFormation stack operation. Today’s launch extends this capability to GovCloud customers and partners to help keeping resources secure and compliant.
With this launch, CloudFormation Hooks is available in 31 AWS regions globally: US East (Ohio, N. Virginia), US West (N. California, Oregon), Canada (Central, Calgary), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Jakarta, Mumbai, Osaka, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo, Hyderabad, Melbourne), Europe (Ireland, Frankfurt, Zurich, London, Paris, Stockholm, Milan), Middle East (UAE, Bahrain), South America (São Paulo), Africa (Cape Town), and the AWS GovCloud (US-East, US-West) Regions.
To get started, you can explore sample hooks published to the CloudFormation Public Registry or author Hooks using the CloudFormation CLI and publish them to your CloudFormation Private Registry.
