Amazon Bedrock AgentCore
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore is AWS's dedicated enterprise runtime for securely deploying and operating AI agents at any scale without infrastructure management. Provides complete session isolation, Amazon VPC connectivity, AWS PrivateLink support, managed memory, code execution, and observability. Complements Bedrock Agents with production-grade security controls. Usage-based pricing.
Solid choice for most workflows
You need to deploy multi-agent AI systems at enterprise scale without managing infrastructure, security, or observability.
Rapid deployment (13 weeks for complex multi-agent chatbot), excellent scaling and tracing via CloudWatch/OpenTelemetry, usage-based pricing scales predictably; supports any model/framework but requires AWS familiarity.
Your agents require secure tool integrations, backend access, and fine-grained permissions across enterprise systems.
Seamless integration with S3, PostgreSQL, Lambda; robust security without custom auth code; minor learning curve for policy layers but accelerates tool development significantly.
You lack visibility into agent performance, errors, and costs in production, slowing debugging and optimization.
Proactive debugging with full traces; tracks goal success/safety; cost monitoring prevents surprises; highly reliable for enterprise auditing.
AWS Account and Bedrock Access
AgentCore is an AWS-native service requiring Bedrock enablement, IAM configuration, and VPC setup for enterprise features like PrivateLink.
Long-Running Workload Limits
Sessions capped at 8 hours; plan for state persistence via AgentCore Memory or external storage to handle extended tasks without interruption.
