Four new checks have been added to Trusted Advisor to provide recommendations related to HAQM S3, HAQM Redshift, HAQM EC2 Reserved Instances, and security. Additionally, the service limits check now includes IAM. These checks provide further guidance to help provision your resources based on AWS best practices.
- HAQM S3 Bucket Versioning (New): Checks for HAQM Simple Storage Service buckets that do not have versioning enabled, or have versioning suspended.
- Underutilized HAQM Redshift Clusters (New): Checks your HAQM Redshift configuration for clusters that appear to be underutilized.
- Exposed Access Keys (New): Checks for access keys that have been exposed to the public and for HAQM Elastic Compute Cloud (HAQM EC2) usage that could be the result of a compromised access key.
- EC2 Reserved Instance Lease Expiration (New): Checks for HAQM EC2 Reserved Instances that are scheduled to expire within the next 30 days or have expired in the preceding 30 days.
- Service Limits (Updated): Added Identity and Access Management (IAM) limits to the service limits check, to include items such as number of instance profiles, roles, server certificates, groups, or users in an AWS account.
