Introduction Teams running distributed workloads face a persistent operational challenge: when something breaks, the information needed to resolve it is scattered across logs, deployment pipelines, configuration histories, and third-party monitoring tools. A Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) responding to a 2 AM page must manually correlate telemetry from multiple sources, trace dependencies across services, and form […]

Root cause analysis during incidents is one of the most time-consuming and stressful parts of operating cloud applications. Engineers must quickly correlate telemetry data across multiple services, review deployment history, and understand complex application dependencies—all while under pressure to restore service. AWS DevOps Agent changes this paradigm by bringing autonomous investigation capabilities to your operations […]

At re:Invent 2025, Matt Garman announced AWS DevOps Agent, a frontier agent that resolves and proactively prevents incidents, continuously improving reliability and performance. As a member of the DevOps Agent team, we’ve focused heavily on making sure that the “incident response” capability of the DevOps Agent generates useful findings and observations. In particular, we’ve been […]

Streamline your AWS infrastructure development with AI-powered documentation search, validation, and troubleshooting Introduction Today, we’re excited to introduce the AWS Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) MCP Server, a new tool that bridges the gap between AI assistants and your AWS infrastructure development workflow. Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), this server enables AI assistants like Kiro CLI, […]

Introduction Is configuration drift preventing you from accessing the speed, safety, and governance benefits of AWS CloudFormation for infrastructure management? Configuration drift occurs when cloud resources are modified outside of CloudFormation, leading to a mismatch in the actual state and template definition of resources. Drift tends to accumulate from infrastructure changes that engineers make via […]

AWS CloudFormation StackSets enables organizations to deploy infrastructure consistently across multiple AWS accounts and regions. However, success depends on choosing the right deployment strategy that balances three critical factors: deployment speed, operational safety, and organizational scale. This guide explores proven StackSets deployment strategies specifically designed for multi-account infrastructure management. Understanding StackSets Deployment Fundamentals What are […]

In the evolving landscape of autonomous systems, multi-agent collaboration is becoming not only feasible but necessary. As agents gain more capabilities, like advanced reasoning, adaptation, and tool use, the challenge shifts from individual performance to effective coordination. The question is no longer “can an agent solve a task?” but “how do we organize execution across […]

Code reviews are one of the most valuable rituals in software development. They help ensure quality, maintain consistency, and foster growth as engineers. But they’re also one of the most time consuming steps in the software development lifecycle. A common pattern I’ve seen is a developer opening a pull request (PR), receiving automated or peer […]

Today, we’re officially announcing the AWS Cloud Control API (CCAPI) MCP Server. This MCP server transforms AWS infrastructure management by allowing developers to create, read, update, delete, and list resources using natural language. As part of the awslabs/mcp project, this new and innovative tool serves as a bridge between natural language commands and AWS infrastructure […]

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a protocol designed to standardize interactions with Generative AI models, making it easier to build and manage AI applications. It provides a consistent way to communicate context with different types of models, regardless of where they’re hosted or how they’re implemented. The protocol helps bridge the gap between model deployment […]
