AWS Lambda Managed Instances now supports Tag Propagation for Managed Resources

AWS Lambda Managed Instances Tag Propagation

AWS Lambda Managed Instances (LMI) now supports tag propagation, enabling automatic application of tags to managed resources such as Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon EBS volumes, and Amazon ENIs. This feature helps enforce cost allocation, service control policies (SCPs), and compliance requirements across all resources provisioned by your capacity providers.

LMI allows you to run Lambda functions on managed EC2 instances with built-in routing, load balancing, and auto scaling, providing access to specialized compute configurations including the latest-generation processors and high-bandwidth networking, with no operational overhead.

What to do

• Configure the PropagateTags setting on your capacity provider using the CreateCapacityProvider or UpdateCapacityProvider APIs.
• Set the mode to Explicit and provide your desired tags as key-value pairs.
• Tag propagation applies to all new managed resources provisioned after the configuration is applied.
• Configure these settings using the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK, or AWS SAM.
