AWS IAM Identity Center supports one-click multi-Region option for new organization instances

AWS IAM Identity Center Multi-Region Support

AWS IAM Identity Center now simplifies enabling multi-Region support for new organization instances. Previously, enabling multi-Region support required multiple steps, but now it can be done with a single click.

New Features

• Multi-Region Instance: Automatically creates a customer managed multi-Region KMS key and replicates your instance to an additional Region for resilient access.
• Custom Instance: Allows individual configuration of Region settings, including using an existing customer managed KMS key.

Region Availability

The new instance configuration options are available in 17 enabled-by-default commercial AWS Regions for organization instances of IAM Identity Center.

What to do

• Choose the multi-Region instance option for automatic multi-Region setup.
• Use the custom instance option for individual Region configurations.
• Refer to the IAM Identity Center User Guide to get started.
• Learn more about multi-Region support in the Using IAM Identity Center across multiple AWS Regions guide.
• Visit the IAM Identity Center product detail page for additional information.
