AWS, Wednesday, October 28th, 2026
Amazon ElastiCache Serverless for Valkey now supports public endpoints in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, with IAM authentication over TLS 1.3.
ElastiCache Serverless for Valkey public endpoints are now available in the GovCloud (US) Regions, letting serverless functions or applications outside a VPC connect without a VPN, bastion host or SSH tunnel.
Every connection uses IAM authentication over TLS 1.3, so no password is stored, and clients such as Valkey GLIDE 2.2 or later support it.
Public endpoints are now in all commercial regions, GovCloud and China Regions at no extra charge.
Create a Valkey 9.0 or later serverless cache with a public endpoint via console, SDK or CLI.
