For more information, see Amazon DataZone updates to AWS managed policies. | December 3, 2024 |
AmazonDataZoneDomainExecutionRolePolicy and AmazonDataZoneFullUserAccess - policy updates | Policy updates to enable support for metadata enforcement rules for subscription requests. For more information, see Amazon DataZone updates to AWS managed policies. | November 20, 2024 |
Amazon DataZone launches metadata enforcement rules for subscription requests | The new metadata enforcement rules for subscription requests in Amazon DataZone strengthens data governance by enabling domain unit owners to establish clear metadata requirements for data consumers, streamlining access requests and enhancing data governance. This feature enables organizations to align with organization’s metadata standards, implement custom workflows, and provide a consistent, governed data access experience. For more information, see Metadata enforcement rules for subscription requests. | November 20, 2024 |
AmazonDataZoneRedshiftGlueProvisioningPolicy - policy updates | Adding | October 22, 2024 |
AWS CloudFormation support for custom AWS service blueprint | Amazon DataZone added AWS CloudFormation support for the custom AWS service blueprint. This new capability enables you to use AWS CloudFormation to automate environment creation in Amazon DataZone. With custom blueprints, administrators can now seamlessly integrate Amazon DataZone into their existing data pipelines using existing IAM roles to publish data assets to the Amazon DataZone catalog, facilitating governed sharing of those assets and enhancing governance across the entire infrastructure. For more information, see Amazon DataZone resource type reference. | September 12, 2024 |
Domain units | Amazon DataZone introduces a set of new data governance capabilities called domain units and authorization policies that enable customers to create business unit/team level organization and manage policies per their business needs. With the addition of domain units, users can organize, create, search, and find data assets and projects associated with business units or teams. With authorization policies, those domain unit users can set access policies for creating projects, glossaries, and using compute resources within Amazon DataZone. | August 5, 2024 |
Data products | Amazon DataZone introduces data products, which enable the grouping of data assets into well-defined, self-contained packages tailored for specific business use cases. For example, a marketing analysis data product can bundle various data assets, such as marketing campaign data, pipeline data, and customer data. With data products, customers can simplify discovery and subscription processes, aligning them with business objectives and reducing redundancy in handling individual assets. | August 5, 2024 |
AmazonDataZoneDomainExecutionRolePolicy and AmazonDataZoneFullUserAccess - policy updates | Policy updates to the AmazonDataZoneDomainExecutionRolePolicy and AmazonDataZoneFullUserAccess to enable support for the new APIs that are used to create and manage Amazon DataZone domain units and data products. For more information, see Amazon DataZone updates to AWS managed policies. | August 5, 2024 |
Fine-grained access control | Amazon DataZone has introduced fine-grained access control, providing you with granular control over your data assets in Amazon DataZone's business data catalog across data lakes and data warehouses. With the new capability, data owners can now restrict access to specific records of data at row and column levels, instead of granting access to entire data assets. For example, if your data contains columns with sensitive information such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), you can restrict access to only the necessary columns, ensuring that sensitive information is protected while still allowing access to non-sensitive data. Similarly, you can control access at the row level, allowing users to see only the records that are relevant to their role or task. | July 2, 2024 |
AmazonDataZoneGlueManageAccessRolePolicy - policy update | Policy update to the AmazonDataZoneGlueManageAccessRolePolicy - Amazon DataZone is adding IAM permissions that are used for fine grained access control functionality in order to scope down the permission granting in Lake Formation. For more information, see Amazon DataZone updates to AWS managed policies. | July 2, 2024 |
Data lineage | Amazon DataZone launches data lineage in preview, helping customers visualize lineage events from OpenLineage-enabled systems or through API and trace data movement from source to consumption. Using Amazon DataZone’s OpenLineage-compatible APIs, domain administrators and data producers can capture and store lineage events beyond what is available in Amazon DataZone, including transformations in Amazon S3, AWS Glue, and other services. Additionally, Amazon DataZone versions lineage with each event, enabling users to visualize lineage at any point in time or compare transformations across an asset’s or job’s history. This historical lineage provides a deeper understanding of how data has evolved, essential for troubleshooting, auditing, and validating the integrity of data assets. | June 27, 2024 |
AmazonDataZoneExecutionRolePolicy and AmazonDataZoneFullUserAccess - policy update | Policy update to the AmazonDataZoneExecutionRolePolicy and AmazonDataZoneFullUserAccess to enable support for the data lineage and fine grained access control APIs. For more information, see Amazon DataZone updates to AWS managed policies. | June 27, 2024 |
Custom AWS service blueprint | With custom AWS service blueprints, if you have existing AWS resources including IAM roles, data lakes, data meshes, Amazon S3 buckets, and Amazon Redshift clusters, you are now able to specify permissions to these existing resources using your own custom IAM role, so that your Amazon DataZone users can leverage publication and subscription to share and govern these resources. With custom AWS service blueprints, Amazon DataZone administrators can configure AWS service environments using their own custom roles. They can configure actions links for these AWS service environments and thus provide federated access to any of their existing AWS resources. They can also configure subscription targets and data sources in these custom AWS service environments. Administrators can set up AWS service environments in their own Amazon DataZone domain account or in any associated accounts from which they want to publish, subscribe to, discover, or govern data. | June 17, 2024 |
AmazonDataZoneGlueManageAccessRolePolicy - policy update | Policy update to the AmazonDataZoneGlueManageAccessRolePolicy that adds IAM permissions required for the self-subscribe functionality in Amazon DataZone in order to scope down the permissions granting in lake formation.

For more information, see Amazon DataZone updates to AWS managed policies. | June 14, 2024 |
Data source creation enhacements | Amazon DataZone has added enhancements to the data source creation flow to simplify access management for data producers. With these updates, when a data producer creates a data source for publishing their AWS Glue and Amazon Redshift assets, Amazon DataZone grants read-only permissions to the project members. When creating an AWS Glue data source, Amazon DataZone automatically grants 'read-only' permissions to the IAM role of the environment used to create the data source, allowing access to all tables in the associated AWS Glue databases. Similarly, for Amazon Redshift data sources, Amazon DataZone grants 'read-only' access to all tables in the Amazon Redshift schemas used in the data source. | June 10, 2024 |

For more information, see Delete Amazon DataZone domains. | December 27, 2023 |
Lake Formation hybrid mode | Amazon DataZone has added support for the AWS Lake Formation hybrid mode. With this support, if you publish an AWS Glue table to Amazon DataZone with its AWS S3 location registered in Lake Formation under hybrid mode, Amazon DataZone treats this table as a managed assets and can manage the subscription grants to this table.
