AWS – AWS Backup extends delegated administrator support to 17 additional AWS Regions

You can now designate delegated administrators for AWS Backup in 17 additional AWS Regions, enabling assigned users in member accounts to perform most administrative tasks.

Delegated administrators are now supported in Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Hyderabad, Jakarta, Malaysia, Melbourne, New Zealand, Taipei, Thailand), Canada West (Calgary), Europe (Milan, Spain, Zurich), Israel (Tel Aviv), Mexico (Central), and Middle East (Bahrain, UAE). Delegated administration enables organizations to designate a central AWS account to manage backup operations across multiple member accounts, streamlining governance and reducing administrative overhead. Additionally, you can now use AWS Backup Audit Manager cross-Region and cross-account delegated administrator functionality in these Regions, empowering delegated administrators to create audit reports for jobs and compliance for backup plans that span these Regions.

For more information on the AWS Backup features available across AWS Regions, see AWS Backup documentation. To get started, visit the AWS Backup console.
