AWS Lambda Managed Instances adds tag propagation
AWS Lambda Managed Instances (LMI) now supports tag propagation, automatically applying specified tags to provisioned EC2 instances, EBS volumes, and ENIs. This addresses a gap for organizations using tagging for cost tracking and governance, enabling better cost allocation and policy enforcement. The feature is available in all commercial AWS regions where LMI is generally available and can be configured via capacity provider APIs or standard AWS tools.

- Tag propagation for managed resources in AWS Lambda Managed Instances
AWS Lambda Managed Instances (LMI) now automatically applies specified tags to managed resources like EC2 instances, EBS volumes, and ENIs. This feature helps enforce cost allocation, SCPs, and compliance requirements across all resources provisioned by LMI capacity providers.
Enhancements (1) ›
- Improved cost tracking and governance with tag propagation
Previously, organizations struggled to track costs or enforce policies on LMI-provisioned resources due to a lack of tag propagation. This new capability ensures consistent tagging without manual intervention or custom automation.
Notes (1) ›
- Configuration and availability of tag propagation
Tag propagation can be configured by setting the PropagateTags mode to Explicit and providing desired tags on capacity providers via AWS Management Console, CLI, CloudFormation, CDK, or SAM. The feature is available in all AWS commercial regions where LMI is generally available and applies to newly provisioned resources.
