Amazon GameLift Streams adds AWS Health notifications for aging resources

Amazon GameLift Streams Updates

Amazon GameLift Streams is now integrated with AWS Health to provide automated notifications about aging stream groups. Customers will receive reminders to re-create their stream groups starting from the 45th day up to the 335th day from the creation date. Stream groups older than 180 days will be restricted from adding new applications and will expire after the 365th day.

This feature enhances security by helping customers manage the lifecycle of stream groups and prevent the use of outdated resources. AWS Health will send reminders on the 45th, 150th, and 335th days, informing customers about restrictions and expiration dates.

What to do

• Monitor AWS Health notifications for stream group reminders.
• Re-create stream groups before the 180-day mark to avoid restrictions.
• Expire stream groups before the 365th day to prevent automatic expiration.

Maintenance warnings and expiration dates can be viewed on the Stream group details page or via the ExpiresAt field in the GetStreamGroup API response.
