Every few months, the team will highlight areas of focus for our work and upcoming research.
We select items for inclusion in the roadmap from the Top Community Issues, Core Services, and internal priorities. Where community sourced contributions exist we will work with the authors to review and merge their work. Where this does not exist or the original contributors are not available we will create the resources and implementation ourselves.
Each weekly release will include necessary tasks that lead to the completion of the stated goals as well as community pull requests, enhancements, and features that are not highlighted in the roadmap. To view all the items we've prioritized for this quarter, please see the Roadmap milestone.
This roadmap does not describe all the work that will be included within this timeframe, but it does describe our focus. We will include other work as events occur.

AWS Audit Manager helps you continuously audit your AWS usage to simplify how you assess risk and compliance with regulations and industry standards. Audit Manager automates evidence collection to reduce the “all hands on deck” manual effort that often happens for audits and enable you to scale your audit capability in the cloud as your business grows. With Audit Manager, it is easy to assess if your policies, procedures, and activities – also known as controls – are operating effectively. When it is time for an audit, AWS Audit Manager helps you manage stakeholder reviews of your controls and enables you to build audit-ready reports with much less manual effort.
Support for AWS Audit Manager may include:

Research topics include features, architectural changes, and ideas that we are pursuing in the longer term that may significantly impact the core user experience of the AWS provider. Research topics are discovery only and are not guaranteed to be included in a future release.
#25606 and #25715 added the ability for provider contributors/maintainers to implement resources and data sources based on the next generation of the provider SDK, the terraform-plugin-framework. Over the next quarter we will increase our footprint of resources based on the framework, either by adding them as new resources or migrating existing ones. We will also ensure that resources based on the framework have parity with with provider level features, such as default tags. Beginning this migration will give us access to new features and functionality in the framework, enabling an improved experience in the framework based resources.
