Research and Engineering Studio on AWS (RES) 2024.01 is now generally available. This new release adds support for RES deployments in private subnets, reduces the cost of idle installations, and enables better user management among other features. With this release, RES is also available in 4 additional AWS Regions - Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), and Europe (Milan). Other key features included in the release are:

  • Ability to specify a custom Amazon Linux 2 Amazon Machine Image (AMI) to use for RES infrastructure hosts. This, along with the ability to deploy RES in private subnets, will enable enterprise customers and academic organizations to deploy RES within their established security posture.
  • Customers with RES 2023.11 installations can take a snapshot of their 2023.11 RES environment and apply it to their new 2024.01 installation to minimize the reconfiguration time.
