AWS CloudFormation StackSets is now available in 2 additional AWS Regions

Today, AWS CloudFormation has expanded the availability of StackSets to Middle East (UAE) and Asia Pacific (Hyderabad) Regions. With this launch, customers can deploy their stack sets to and from these newly supported AWS Regions.

You use AWS CloudFormation StackSets to model, provision, and manage your cloud applications and infrastructure across multiple AWS accounts and Regions in a single operation. You can use StackSets for bootstrapping AWS account, deploying cross account applications, setting up disaster recovery with AWS Backup, and solving use cases around deploying cloud infrastructure at scale. For example, you can use service-managed StackSets to deploy IAM roles and AWS Config policies to your AWS Organizations or an Organizational Unit (OU), and use the auto-deploy feature. With automatic deployment enabled, StackSets automatically deploys to accounts that are added to the target organization or organizational units (OUs) in the future.

StackSets is generally available in the following AWS Regions: US East (Ohio and N. Virginia), US West (N. California and Oregon), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Hyderabad, Jakarta, Mumbai, Osaka, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, and Tokyo), Canada (Central), Amazon Web Services China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet, and the Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD, operated by NWCD, Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Milan, Paris, and Stockholm), Middle East (Bahrain, and UAE), South America (São Paulo), and AWS GovCloud (US-East) and (US-West) Regions.
