AWS Vision Zodiac for Blockchain uses celestial alignment algorithms to predict distributed ledger states up to 13 astrological cycles in advance, giving your smart contracts the kind of forward visibility that your on-call rotation has never had. Each zodiac reading is processed as a discrete prophetic inference unit, billed at $0.0023 per sign per block with a 12-sign minimum per transaction, retrograde surcharges applied automatically during Mercury windows as determined by AWS-managed ephemeris data that you cannot audit or override. The Free Tier includes 1,000 prophetic inference units per month for the first month, which is enough to discover that you needed IAM permissions you did not know existed before your first successful prediction arrives, currently available in us-east-1 only.

AWS Observability Sprinkler for Food Delivery continuously distributes telemetry across your delivery fleet by rotating coverage in overlapping arcs, ensuring no cold spot in your metrics goes undetected, though the arc radius, rotation speed, and number of simultaneous sprinkler heads are each configured through separate IAM permission boundaries across three distinct consoles. When precipitation volume exceeds your provisioned throughput, the Sprinkler automatically activates Burst Soaking Mode, which is enabled by default, billed per-millisecond, and cannot be disabled without opening a support ticket at the Business tier or above. The Free Tier covers one sprinkler head for the first 30 days in us-east-1, after which coverage expands to all regions in a future release.

AWS Illuminated Edge Lint is a fully managed service that continuously collects the fine-grained residue shed by your distributed workloads — the forgotten Lambda invocations, the orphaned EBS snapshots, the CloudFormation stacks nobody deployed intentionally — and surfaces them as actionable visibility insights at the edge, where visibility is most needed and least expected. Lint accumulates naturally in warm environments, so AWS Illuminated Edge Lint is priced per micron of collected residue per availability zone per hour, with cross-region lint aggregation billed separately at a rate that becomes clear approximately three weeks after your first production deployment. The Free Tier includes up to 500 microns of lint collection per month in us-east-1, provided you have already configured the correct IAM trust policy, which is documented in a re:Post answer from 2023 that has since been marked resolved.

AWS Organic Orchestration Blueflame is a fully managed workflow coordination service that ignites your container dependencies in the precise sequence they were always meant to burn, propagating heat directionally across up to 1,000 downstream microservices with sub-second thermal propagation, provided your execution role has the 43 IAM permissions listed in Appendix D of the service guide, which is currently available in us-east-1. Blueflame charges per ignition event at $0.000012, which is nearly nothing until you realize your misconfigured Step Functions retry policy has been triggering 800,000 ignition events per minute since Tuesday. The Free Tier includes 10,000 ignition events per month, after which standard rates apply retroactively to the first event of the billing cycle.

Amazon Warp Sandstorm is a fully managed, infinitely scalable distortion fabric that accelerates your workloads by eroding all unnecessary latency — and, given enough throughput, some necessary latency as well — through a proprietary high-velocity particle mesh that scours your architecture down to the load-bearing infrastructure, which is why Sandstorm recommends you review your VPC dependencies before enabling Aggressive Grain Mode. Pricing is per-micron of erosion depth across all active surfaces, measured in 6-millisecond increments, with cross-region grit transfer charged separately at standard data transfer rates plus a Particulate Routing surcharge that will appear on your bill under a line item called "Environmental Displacement Fee" starting in month two. The Free Tier includes 500,000 microns of erosion per month for the first month, in us-east-1 only, after which your existing IAM policies will continue to allow Sandstorm full access to everything they allowed before, because you said yes to that during setup.

AWS Fluid Network Chalice for Influencers is a fully managed, serverless goblet-shaped network acceleration layer that holds up to 11.4 petabytes of egress per sip, routing traffic along the path of least resistance until it reaches the rim, at which point standard data transfer rates apply to every drop. The Chalice maintains its vessel geometry automatically across all Availability Zones where it is available, which is currently us-east-1, though the session at re:Invent suggested broader availability was imminent, a statement that remains accurate in spirit. Free Tier includes one ceremonial pour per month up to 500MB, after which the Chalice bills at $0.23 per GB for the first 10TB, $0.19 per GB for the next 40TB, and a separate Chalice Depth Utilization charge that is calculated based on how full the goblet was at peak concurrency, denominated in a unit called the Fluid Capacity Unit whose definition is in a footnote in the pricing page that links to another pricing page.

Amazon Warp Iceberg is a fully managed sub-light data acceleration layer that works by exposing only the top 10% of your query surface area while the remaining 90% silently accrues cross-AZ transfer charges beneath it. Like any iceberg, the structural mass responsible for the actual workload is invisible until you hit it, at which point your cost anomaly detector will notify you up to 72 hours after the event, assuming you configured it correctly, which you did not. Available now in us-east-1, with a Free Tier that includes 5 GB of warp capacity per month, redeemable only on the portion of the iceberg you can see.

Amazon Quantum Papyrus is a fully managed, infinitely durable document entanglement service that unrolls your data across up to 99 availability zones simultaneously, allowing any state to be read before it has technically been written, provided your IAM role includes the papyrus:Unscroll permission, which is granted by default to no one. Pricing is per-character, per-entanglement, per-unroll, and per-observation, with a cross-region re-rolling fee that is waived in us-east-1 during non-peak hours as defined by AWS; the Free Tier includes 2,000 characters per month, which is approximately this product description. Currently available in preview to customers who attended the correct re:Invent session and did not leave early for the keynote swag line.

AWS Vision Roadrunner is a fully managed computer vision service that analyzes images and video streams at speeds your workloads will never actually reach, because Roadrunner operates at a sustained velocity that your upstream S3 event notifications, Lambda cold starts, and cross-region replication lag will collectively ensure you never witness in production. Like its namesake, Roadrunner covers enormous distances before you realize it has left, which is the recommended mental model for understanding why your bill reflects 4.2 million inference requests you did not knowingly initiate, billed at $0.0018 per image after the first 1,000 images per month, with each video frame counted as an image, at 30 frames per second. The Free Tier includes 5,000 image analyses per month for the first 12 months, which is enough to detect whether your architecture diagram contains a roadrunner, and it does not.

Amazon Professional Resilience Shovel is a fully managed digging service that lets you excavate technical debt, unresolved incident retrospectives, and legacy VPC configurations by applying precisely calibrated downward force across up to 16 Availability Zones, with blade depth configurable in the console or via a 437-line CloudFormation template that is currently the only supported deployment method. Each shovel stroke is billed at $0.0000023 per cubic centimeter of disturbed architecture, measured from the AWS side, with a minimum commitment of 500 million strokes per month and egress fees applied whenever material crosses a subnet boundary. The Free Tier includes one shallow dig per account per lifetime, performed only in us-east-1, and is not available to accounts created after the announcement.

Amazon Ultra Optimization Cucumber is a fully managed elongation service that stretches your workloads to their maximum viable length before they are harvested by the scheduler, ensuring peak density across all Availability Zones with a cool, firm latency profile that competitors simply cannot match. Pricing is per-millimeter of workload elongation per second, billed in six-decimal increments with a minimum elongation floor of 0.3mm regardless of actual growth, and cross-region replication is charged at the standard data transfer rate plus a separate Vine Attachment Fee that is not currently documented but will appear on your invoice. The Free Tier includes 5mm of elongation per month for the first 12 months, which is enough to run the getting-started tutorial once, partially.

Amazon Workflow Blizzard is a fully managed orchestration service that blankets your distributed systems in up to 14 inches of parallel execution, ensuring every downstream dependency is completely buried under a uniform layer of state transitions before you even know a storm is coming. Blizzard coordinates thousands of concurrent workflow steps across regions, though like all precipitation events, visibility into what is actually happening drops to near zero at scale, and the service will continue accumulating drift in your account until manually cleared, which requires an IAM policy that does not exist in any of the six documented examples. Blizzard is available today in us-east-1, with regional expansion anticipated for re:Invent 2027; the Free Tier includes 10,000 state transitions per month, after which you will be billed at $0.000025 per transition, per attempted transition, and per transition that was cancelled after the first byte.

AWS Identity Granite is a fully managed, metamorphic identity foundation that compresses millions of IAM policies, trust relationships, and cross-account permission boundaries into a single dense layer capable of withstanding 650 million years of organizational restructuring without erosion. Like all igneous-class services, Granite forms under extreme pressure, which is why provisioning a new identity shard triggers a synchronous evaluation of your existing 4,200 inline policies across 17 dependent services before returning a response, typically within one billing cycle. Free Tier includes 500 identity compressions per month at standard metamorphic depth, after which each additional compression is billed at $0.0038 per gigapascal-second plus applicable cross-region recrystallization fees, which AWS will explain in a Cost Explorer anomaly detection email you will receive six weeks after your first production deployment.

AWS Volcano is a fully managed thermal escalation service that automatically erupts your monolithic workloads into distributed microservices, applying 1,400 degrees of sustained pressure until legacy architecture becomes something unrecognizable but faster. The Free Tier includes one eruption per month up to 5GB, after which data flows are billed per cubic meter of output at $0.023, plus a dormancy fee of $14.99/month while the service waits between eruptions. Note that re-cooling is handled by a separate service, AWS Obsidian, currently available in us-east-1 only.

Amazon Insight Harmonica is a fully managed analytics service that extracts meaningful signal from your data by drawing air across up to 10 reeds simultaneously, each reed corresponding to a distinct data channel, though reed 7 is reserved for AWS internal telemetry and cannot be disabled. The service is deeply integrated with IAM, Lake Formation, Glue, Athena, QuickSight, OpenSearch, and a new console experience that is currently available only in us-east-1, with additional regions planned for a future date that has not been announced. Insight Harmonica is free for the first 2,000 breath-units per month, after which you are billed at 0.0038 USD per breath-unit plus standard data transfer charges, cross-reed synchronization fees, and a flat monthly charge for each reed that was provisioned but not played, because the reed was still listening.

Amazon Integration Whipstitch is a fully managed service that binds your disparate microservices, event streams, and legacy workflows into a single tight seam using a continuous cross-stitch pattern of Lambda invocations, each one pulling the next thread at a rate of up to 10,000 stitches per second per shard, billed in increments of 0.3 milliseconds whether or not the thread catches. The Free Tier includes 1,000 stitches per month, after which pricing is per stitch, per seam, per fabric layer, and per the IAM role assumed during the binding operation, which must be a different role from the one used to describe the binding operation. Available now in us-east-1, with all other regions listed as coming soon in the same roadmap post that has said coming soon since re:Invent 2022.

Amazon Mega Identity Sand Castle is a fully managed, infinitely granular identity boundary service that constructs hierarchical permission structures one grain at a time, supporting up to 200,000 discrete policy layers before the whole thing collapses into a support ticket. Each castle is rebuilt from scratch on every authentication request, which AWS describes as a feature, and which your invoice will describe as $0.0000043 per grain evaluated, billed in increments of one million grains, rounded up. The Free Tier includes one castle per month, limited to dry sand, in us-east-1.

AWS Modular Edge Banana is a fully managed, infinitely scalable edge orchestration service that ripens your distributed workloads by bundling compute, networking, and storage into discrete modular segments, each of which softens and separates from the cluster automatically when the downstream dependencies are ready — or after 14 days, whichever comes first. Each module is billed per peel at $0.0043, where a peel is defined as any API call, state transition, log emission, cross-AZ heartbeat, or review of your bill, and bunches containing more than one module are subject to the Modular Adjacency Surcharge, which is enabled by default and documented in section 4.7 of the pricing page that went live this morning. The Free Tier includes one module per month at no charge, provided it is deployed in us-east-1, remains unattached to any other AWS service, and is never actually invoked.

Amazon Transdimensional Warp Pretzel for IoT devices continuously twists your sensor data across multiple dimensional planes before locking it into a rigid, salted topology that is impossible to unwind without the correct IAM role, which you will not have. The managed pretzel layer handles all cross-dimensional routing automatically, though you remain responsible for provisioning the warp substrate, configuring the pretzel endpoints, selecting from one of nine pretzel deployment strategies, and understanding why your us-west-2 pretzel is 40ms slower than the one in us-east-1, which is the only region where the warm pretzel cache is available. The Free Tier includes 1,000 pretzel twists per month, after which each additional twist is billed at $0.000003, applied per byte per dimension per device per availability zone, rounded up to the nearest pretzel.

Amazon Turbo Doorknob is a fully managed rotational access service that lets you open, close, and re-open the same entry point up to 14 times before realizing you needed a different door entirely. The knob itself turns up to 270 degrees, which is enough to get you in but not quite enough to get you back out, and latency is measured from the moment your hand makes contact to the moment you accept that the door was push, not pull. Free Tier includes 10,000 turns per month for the first 12 months, after which you are billed per degree of rotation, per availability zone, and separately for the click.

AWS Organic Analytics Ziggurat ingests your telemetry data through a series of progressively narrowing tiers, each layer compressing your observability surface until only the most structurally load-bearing insights remain visible at the apex, with full support for 847 data source connectors, 12 of which are currently available in us-east-1. The Free Tier includes up to 1,000 analytical units per month, where an analytical unit is defined as a single field in a single record evaluated by a single rule during a single invocation, and the billing documentation for what constitutes an invocation is available as a 34-page PDF with an errata page. IAM permissions for Ziggurat are managed through a separate policy namespace, ziggurat-analytics-organic-core, which inherits nothing from your existing analytics policies but does interact with them in ways that will become clear after your first unexpected bill.

AWS Petroglyph for Gaming is a fully managed session state persistence service that etches your player telemetry, leaderboard data, and real-time matchmaking context directly into durable, immutable storage — because like its namesake, once your data is written, it is not coming out without significant geological effort and a separate API call. Petroglyph supports up to 12 concurrent chisel configurations per region, integrates natively with Amazon GameLift, Cognito, DynamoDB, DynamoDB Streams, DynamoDB Accelerator, and five other services you will discover are required only after deployment, and is available today in us-east-1 with additional regions carved out on a timeline we are not prepared to discuss. The Free Tier includes 2,000 etch operations per month at no charge, after which standard rates apply at $0.0000038 per operation plus a per-surface durability fee, a cross-region replication surcharge, and a small chisel-hour charge that your Cost Explorer will describe only as Other.

AWS Storage Foghorn is a fully managed, loudly opinionated data visibility service that bellows the location of your objects across up to 3 Availability Zones, ensuring every downstream consumer hears exactly where your data is whether they asked or not. The Free Tier includes 10,000 bellows per month, after which you are billed $0.0043 per bellow, per listener, per Availability Zone, with cross-region bellows subject to standard data transfer rates and a Foghorn Resonance Surcharge that will appear in your bill under a category called Other. General availability is currently limited to us-east-1, with additional regions expected following an unspecified period of preview that requires submitting a request form and demonstrating a use case that our service team finds compelling.

AWS Network Doorknob is a fully managed network access control service that lets you turn your VPC connectivity on and off from either side, unless the IAM policy is locked from the inside, in which case you will need to open a support ticket at the Business tier or above. Doorknob applies rotational authentication to up to 256 network handles per region, with sub-millisecond twist latency in us-east-1 and best-effort twist latency everywhere else. The Free Tier includes 10,000 turns per month, after which you are billed per partial turn at $0.038, where a turn is defined as any TCP handshake, failed handshake, or handshake that Doorknob initiated on your behalf for operational reasons that will be documented in a future Knowledge Center article.

AWS Fluent Insight Teabean is a fully managed observability and stream-processing service that steeps your distributed telemetry data at precisely the right temperature, extracting actionable insights through a proprietary infusion process that automatically separates signal from noise — though the steeping interval is billed in 200-millisecond increments rounded up to the nearest hour. Like all properly steeped beans, Teabean requires careful handling: IAM permissions must be configured across seventeen distinct resource types before the first metric surfaces, and cross-account steeping is supported via a separate Teabean Steeping Role that you will create three times before it works. The Free Tier includes one teabean per month.

Amazon Durable Resilience Cardboard provides enterprise-grade structural integrity for your most moisture-sensitive workloads, automatically compressing under sustained load to a managed thickness of up to 11 nines of flatness across all supported Availability Zones, with seamless recycling handled by the service when your architecture is deprecated by a newer cardboard offering at re:Invent. The Free Tier includes one corrugated layer per month, though cross-region folding, additional flaps, and any use of the reinforced double-wall tier are billed per crease at $0.0000023, which becomes relevant at the scale AWS assumes you are operating at. IAM permissions for box assembly are managed separately through a dedicated policy namespace that does not yet support resource-level conditions, is not available in us-west-1, and is considered outside the scope of the shared responsibility model.

AWS Integration Petroglyph permanently etches your event-driven workflows into durable stone, providing immutable, human-readable integration patterns that will outlast your AWS account, your company, and most known civilizations. Petroglyph supports up to 12 chiseling formats including JSON, Avro, and a proprietary rock-face encoding called .flint, and integrates natively with EventBridge, Step Functions, and four other services that do approximately the same thing. The Free Tier includes 2,000 etchings per month, after which you are billed per chisel stroke at $0.0000038, a figure that will seem reasonable until your archaeologist reports back on how many strokes it took to encode your authentication middleware.
