New Regions: Asia Pacific (Singapore), Canada (Central), and Europe (Paris)
Customers can now deploy SDDCs in the Asia Pacific (Singapore), Canada (Central), and Europe (Paris) regions. Please note that the Canada (Central) region does not support stretched clusters.

VMware Network Insight
VMware Network Insight helps customers build an optimized, highly available and secure network infrastructure across multi-cloud environments. It accelerates micro-segmentation deployment, minimizes business risk during application migration and enables customers to confidently manage and troubleshoot application networking and security across their on-premise and VMware Cloud on AWS environments. VMware Network Insight now supports integration of VMware Cloud on AWS as a data source. VMware Network Insight integration with VMware Cloud on AWS provides the following key capabilities to VMware Cloud on AWS users:

• Traffic analysis and micro-segmentation planning for VMware Cloud on AWS workloads
• Migration planning from workloads from on-premises SDDC to VMware Cloud on AWS
• Hybrid network path troubleshooting that includes VMware Cloud on AWS to on-premises path through gateways and VP

Direct Connect BGP Local ASN change
Direct Connect connection to SDDC now uses BGP Local ASN as 64512. This BGP local ASN is editable and any private ASN from the range 64512 – 65534 can be used. If the selected ASN 64512 is already used on-premises, a different ASN number must be used. Before this change, AWS Public ASN was used as BGP local ASN. The following public ASNs were used - 17493 in the Asia Pacific (Singapore) region, 10124 in the Asia Pacific (Tokyo) region, 9059 in the EU (Ireland) region, and 7224 in other regions. Important note around deployments:

• If you are creating a new Direct Connect virtual interface (VIF), you will only be able to use a private local ASN with VMware Cloud on AWS.
• If you want to change an existing public ASN to a private ASN, you must delete any AWS Direct Connect VIF that uses the existing public ASN.
• If you change to a private ASN, you will not be able to change back to a public ASN later.
• If you have an SDDC that is using the prior default public ASN, you can continue using the public ASN for the SDDC.

Language and Regional Format Support (French, Spanish, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese)​
VMware Cloud on AWS now supports language and regional format settings in French, Spanish, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese, in addition to German and Japanese. These languages are supported in the VMware Cloud on AWS console and in Cloud Service Platform features such as Identity & Access Management, Billing & Subscriptions, and some areas of the Support Center.
