agentcore

Amazon Web Services launched Policy Engine and Lambda interceptors for Bedrock AgentCore gateway, enabling enterprises to control which tools AI agents can access and validate requests dynamically. The Policy Engine uses Cedar declarative policy language for deterministic access decisions, while Lambda interceptors run custom code before or after each tool call for validation, token exchange, and response filtering.

AWS has deployed Amazon Bedrock AgentCore to orchestrate more than 20 specialized AI agents across its global sales organization through a unified interface called Field Advisor. The system has processed over 120,000 prompts since launch, delivering a 41% latency reduction compared to previous infrastructure and saving large-scale sales reps up to 2 hours per week on CRM tasks.

Amazon has released Bedrock AgentCore, a platform for building and deploying AI agents with microVM isolation for secure session handling. The platform integrates with Amazon Nova 2 Sonic, a speech-to-speech foundation model, and supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for connecting agents to backend services.
