# Release notes

## Release Date: 19 February 2026 <a href="#release-date-27-may-2025" id="release-date-27-may-2025"></a>

### New AWS & Cloud Managed Services Essentials Offering in Marketplace

We have launched a new AWS product in the SoftwareOne Marketplace.&#x20;

This new product, **Amazon Web Services and SoftwareOne Cloud Managed Services Essentials**, combines the newly launched [AWS Billing Transfer](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2025/11/billing-transfer-multi-organization-billing-cost-management/) model with the SoftwareOne service offerings related to AWS.&#x20;

The Billing Transfer feature streamlines your financial operations by enabling you to consolidate billing and costs across multiple AWS organizations. This transition to SoftwareOne for billing allows you to access cost reporting and optimization insights through the SoftwareOne Marketplace Platform. Additionally, it simplifies the procurement process by eliminating the need to manage multiple invoices, as you get one clear, optimized bill for your entire AWS estate.

The new product is available in all AWS regions that support billing transfer. This includes all public AWS regions, except AWS GovCloud (US) and China regions, including Beijing and Ningxia. To learn more about using Billing Transfer, see the [AWS news blog](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-aws-billing-transfer-for-centrally-managing-aws-billing-and-costs-across-multiple-organizations/).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.platform.softwareone.com/extensions/amazon-web-services/release-notes.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
