In this post, we show how to implement a generative AI agentic assistant that uses both semantic and text-based search using Amazon Bedrock, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, Strands Agents and Amazon OpenSearch.

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway provides a centralized layer for managing how AI agents connect to tools and MCP servers across your organization. In this post, we walk through how to configure AgentCore Gateway to connect to an OAuth-protected MCP server using the Authorization Code flow.

In this post, we show you how to configure AWS Network Firewall to restrict AgentCore resources to an allowlist of approved internet domains. This post focuses on domain-level filtering using SNI inspection — the first layer of a defense-in-depth approach.

In this post, we go through how to use managed session storage to persist your agent’s filesystem state and how to execute shell commands directly in your agent’s environment.

In this post, we introduce Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations, a fully managed service for assessing AI agent performance across the development lifecycle. We walk through how the service measures agent accuracy across multiple quality dimensions. We explain the two evaluation approaches for development and production and share practical guidance for building agents you can deploy with confidence.

In this post, you learn how to build a FinOps agent using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore that helps your finance team manage AWS costs across multiple accounts. This conversational agent consolidates data from AWS Cost Explorer, AWS Budgets, and AWS Compute Optimizer into a single interface, so your team can ask questions like “What are my top cost drivers this month?” and receive immediate answers.

In this post, we walk through two use cases that help enhance the user viewing experience using agentic AI tools and frameworks including Strands Agents SDK, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, and Amazon Nova Sonic 2.0. This agentic AI system uses a Model Context Protocol (MCP) to deliver a personal entertainment concierge that understands user preferences through natural dialogue.

In this series of posts, you will learn how streaming architectures help address these challenges using Pipecat voice agents on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime. In Part 1, you will learn how to deploy Pipecat voice agents on AgentCore Runtime using different network transport approaches including WebSockets, WebRTC and telephony integration, with practical deployment guidance and code samples.

In this post, we demonstrate how to build a Slack integration using AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK). You will learn how to deploy the infrastructure with three specialized AWS Lambda functions, configure event subscriptions properly to handle Slack’s security requirements, and implement conversation management patterns that work for many agent use cases.

In this post, you will understand how Policy in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore creates a deterministic enforcement layer that operates independently of the agent’s own reasoning. You will learn how to turn natural language descriptions of your business rules into Cedar policies, then use those policies to enforce fine-grained, identity-aware controls so that agents only access the tools and data that their users are authorized to use. You will also see how to apply Policy through AgentCore Gateway, intercepting and evaluating every agent-to-tool request at runtime.
