Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio Updates

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio now supports cross-Region subscriptions and IAM role-based subscriptions for simple and flexible data access and governance. With cross-Region support, you can subscribe to AWS Glue tables and views, as well as Amazon Redshift tables and views published in a different AWS Region than your project. This capability helps break down data silos and enable better collaboration across your organization by allowing teams to access curated data assets from any AWS Region without manual replication.

Additionally, you can now discover and request access to data through IAM-role based subscriptions. This allows you to request access to data without requiring a SageMaker Unified Studio project, eliminating the project intermediary layer and simplifying access to data through IAM roles.

What to do

  • Log into SageMaker Unified Studio or use the Amazon DataZone API, SDK, or AWS CLI to start with cross-Region subscriptions.
  • Use Amazon DataZone API and SDK for IAM role-based subscriptions.
  • Refer to the SageMaker Unified Studio user guide for more information.
