AWS Config now supports 15 new resource types

AWS Config adds support for 15 new resource types across Amazon Bedrock, Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, and Amazon SageMaker, expanding coverage of AWS resources for discovery, assessment, auditing, and remediation

AWS Config now supports 15 additional AWS resource types across key services including Amazon Bedrock, Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, and Amazon SageMaker. This expansion provides greater coverage over your AWS environment, enabling you to more effectively discover, assess, audit, and remediate an even broader range of resources. If you have enabled recording for all resource types, AWS Config will automatically track these new additions. The newly supported resource types are also available in Config rules and Config aggregators. Supported resource types include AWS::AppSync::DomainName, AWS::OpenSearchServerless::AccessPolicy, AWS::Bedrock::AutomatedReasoningPolicy, AWS::SageMaker::ImageVersion, among others.
