Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus now supports Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus now offers customers the option to use Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses for their new and existing workspaces. Customers moving to IPv6 can simplify their network stack by running and operating their Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspaces on a network that supports both IPv4 and IPv6\. Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus is a fully managed Prometheus-compatible monitoring service that makes it easy to monitor and alarm on operational metrics at scale. Prometheus is a popular Cloud Native Computing Foundation open-source project for monitoring and alerting on metrics from compute environments such as [Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service](https://aws.amazon.com/eks/). The continued growth of the internet is exhausting available Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) addresses. IPv6 increases the number of available addresses by several orders of magnitude so customers will no longer need to manage overlapping address spaces in their VPCs. Customers can now connect to Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus APIs with IPv6 connections. Customers can also continue to connect to Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus APIs via IPv4 connections if they do not utilize IPv6. To learn more on best practices for configuring IPv6 in your environment, visit the whitepaper on [IPv6 in AWS](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/whitepapers/latest/ipv6-on-aws/internet-protocol-version-6.html). Support for IPv6 on Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus is available in all regions where the service is GA.
