AWS MCP Server... Now in 6 New Regions

In case you haven't heard of it before, the AWS MCP Server is a managed, remote server that gives AI agents secure access to AWS through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Agents can execute AWS CLI commands, search AWS documentation, and follow curated skills.

The reason this regional expansion is likely important to you... you can now run the AWS MCP Server and Agent Toolkit closer to where you're building on AWS.

If you think about a team in London pointing their agents at a local endpoint to build, inspect running workloads, and debug failures... this means there are no routing requests being sent halfway around the world. Even less time working on what matters to you, win. Oh, and even though the server runs in those Regions, it can still reach services in ALL commercial AWS Regions.

With the addition of six Regions, the full lineup is at eight! Here's where:
