What's Changed

[1.4.21] — 2026-08-20

Added

• IoT Core — native mTLS MQTT listener on port 8883 — the embedded broker now also accepts MQTT over TLS on 8883 (IOT_MTLS_ENABLED=0 turns it off, IOT_MTLS_PORT moves it), on by default when cryptography is present, so AWS IoT Device SDK binaries can connect. The broker certificate comes from the local CA (GET /_ministack/iot/ca.pem); a client certificate is optional (none is served under MINISTACK_ACCOUNT_ID, like an unsigned WebSocket upgrade) and an unknown or non-ACTIVE certificate is refused with a 0x05 CONNACK. Contributed by @iot-rocket.
• RDS — replicated Aurora PostgreSQL readers survive StopDBCluster / StartDBCluster and warm boot — under MINISTACK_RDS_PG_CLUSTER_REPLICATION, StopDBCluster now stops the reader containers alongside the writer and StartDBCluster revives each reader by re-cloning from the writer; the same revival runs on warm boot, so a persisted reader comes back as a real hot standby instead of being demoted to a writer alias. Contributed by @Kiran01bm.
• CloudFormation — AWS::SES::ConfigurationSet and AWS::SES::ConfigurationSetEventDestination — a template carrying an SES configuration set no longer fails with "Unsupported resource type"; both resource types provision (registered in the classic and v2 SES stores, Ref returns the set name, the event destination round-trips), CloudFormation-provisioning fidelity only. Contributed by @ryan-bennett.

Fixed

• API Gateway (REST) — routing is on the resource+method pair, not the resource alone — a request a matched resource does not serve (a methodless intermediate node, a CORS-preflight-only node, or an undeclared verb) now falls through to a {proxy+} elsewhere in the tree as it does on AWS; only an exact resource+method match keeps the request, and routing precedes authorization. Supersedes the 1.4.16 change that answered a methodless resource 403. Contributed by @iot-rocket.
• Step Functions — an unimplemented optimized service integration fails instead of silently succeeding — a Task using an arn:aws:states:::<service>:<action> integration MiniStack does not implement fell through to echoing its input back as SUCCEEDED; it now fails with States.Runtime naming the unimplemented resource. Reported by @iwasakar.
• CloudFormation — a replacement of a custom-named resource is refused instead of destroying data — an update requiring replacement of a resource with an explicit physical name (for example changing a DynamoDB key attribute's type on a table that sets TableName) now fails and rolls back to UPDATE_ROLLBACK_COMPLETE with CloudFormation cannot update a stack when a custom-named resource requires replacing. Rename <name> and update the stack again., leaving the resource and its data intact. Reported by @iot-rocket.
• CloudFormation — change sets report a valid status, fail when execution fails, and do not outlive their stack — ExecuteChangeSet wrote the invalid EXECUTE_COMPLETE into Status, breaking the CDK's Status == CREATE_COMPLETE gate. Status now stays CREATE_COMPLETE while ExecutionStatus moves to EXECUTE_COMPLETE or EXECUTE_FAILED on the deployment outcome. A no-change set ends FAILED, a missing set returns ChangeSetNotFound (404), a duplicate name is AlreadyExistsException, deleting a stack removes its change sets, executing one deletes the others, and a direct UpdateStack marks pending sets OBSOLETE. Reported by @iot-rocket.
• RDS — Aurora engine versions are validated on non-create writes and global inheritance — ModifyDBInstance, ModifyDBCluster, CreateGlobalCluster, ModifyGlobalCluster, and global-inherited CreateDBCluster now reject engine versions the catalog does not advertise; modify paths return InvalidParameterCombination / Cannot find upgrade target from {current} with requested version {requested}., ModifyGlobalCluster propagates an accepted version to every member, and a member moved to a different major than its global is refused. Contributed by @Kiran01bm.
• RDS — global Aurora stop/start preserves topology and MySQL replication — StopDBCluster and StartDBCluster are now limited to sole-member global databases (InvalidDBClusterStateFault, 400), deleting a primary's last instance preserves compute other global members still need, and a successful recreate resets stale MySQL replica state before re-linking replication. Contributed by @Kiran01bm.
• S3 — a conditional delete of an absent key is answered correctly — DeleteObject with If-Match on a key that is not there now returns 204 (deleting an already-gone key is done), and If-Match: * is honored as an existence check — it holds against any present object and returns 412 PreconditionFailed when the key is absent — rather than being compared as a literal ETag. Contributed by @gaul.
• S3 — multipart uploads carry their parts' checksums through to a composite — CreateMultipartUpload records the checksum algorithm, UploadPart validates and echoes each part's checksum, and completion builds the AWS composite (<digest>-<parts>, the digest of the parts' digests) read back through ChecksumMode as COMPOSITE; a mismatch is BadDigest. Contributed by @gaul.
