AWS Batch now provides AMI status and supports AWS Health Planned Lifecycle Events

AWS Batch Release Notes

AWS Batch now provides enhanced visibility into your compute environments with two new capabilities:

• AMI Status Indicator: When describing a compute environment, you can now see the status of your Batch-provided default Amazon Machine Images (AMIs), indicating when updates are available.
• AWS Health Planned Lifecycle Events: AWS Batch now publishes AWS Health Planned Lifecycle Events to help you prepare for and track changes affecting your batch computing resources.

What to do

• Check the status of your AMIs to ensure you are using the latest version.
• Monitor AWS Health Planned Lifecycle Events to prepare for upcoming changes.
• Automate responses using Amazon EventBridge for better resource management.
