To enable deployment of WorkSpaces across multiple VPCs and AWS accounts without DNS conflicts, Amazon WorkSpaces Personal now assigns globally unique AWS-managed DNS names to each interface VPC endpoint. This allows appropriate routing and security isolation while maintaining compatibility with existing generic DNS configurations.

These DNS names resolve to private IPs accessible only within their VPC, simplifying configuration in centralized DNS infrastructures and multi-account environments. The feature is active in all AWS regions supporting PrivateLink for WorkSpaces Personal, and existing customers benefit automatically without additional configuration.
