AWS launches frontier agents for security testing and cloud operations

I’m excited to announce that AWS Security Agent on-demand penetration testing and AWS DevOps Agent are now generally available, representing a new class of AI capabilities we announced at re:Invent called frontier agents. These autonomous systems work independently to achieve goals, scale massively to tackle concurrent tasks, and run persistently for hours or days without constant human oversight. Together, these agents are changing the way we secure and operate software. In preview, customers and partners report that AWS Security Agent compresses penetration testing timelines from weeks to hours and the AWS DevOps Agent supports 3–5x faster incident resolution.

Evaluate AI agents systematically with Agent-EvalKit

Agent-EvalKit is an open-source toolkit (Apache 2.0) that makes this evaluation infrastructure available by integrating with AI coding assistants, including Claude Code, Kiro CLI, and Kilo Code. This post walks through how Agent-EvalKit works across its six evaluation phases, using a travel research agent built with the Strands Agents SDK and Amazon Bedrock as a running example.

Spot trends faster, sort smarter: Unlocking Sparklines and Custom Sort in Amazon Quick

Today, we’re excited to announce two new capabilities that make Quick Sight dashboards even more expressive and business-aligned: sparklines and custom sort for controls. In this post, we walk through both features, what they are, when to use them, and how to configure them, with real-world scenarios that bring them together in a practical, decision-ready dashboard.

Optimize blueprint extraction accuracy in Amazon Bedrock Data Automation

Blueprint instruction optimization is a BDA feature that automatically refines your extraction instructions to address this challenge directly. You provide three to ten example documents with expected values, and BDA refines your blueprint instructions to improve accuracy in minutes, not weeks. No separate model fine-tuning is required.

By the end of this post, you can optimize your blueprints to improve accuracy, run the optimization workflow through the Amazon Bedrock console or the API, and apply best practices for selecting examples and ground truth.

Stop hand-tuning kernels: How Neuron Agentic Development accelerates AWS Trainium optimizations

Today, we’re announcing the Neuron Agentic Development capabilities: a collection of AI agents and skills that make this possible for developers building on AWS Trainium and AWS Inferentia. In this post, we explain how the Neuron Agentic Development capabilities accelerate the kernel development workflow.

Build an AI-Powered Equipment Repair Assistant Using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

In this post, you build an AI-powered equipment repair assistant using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore that helps farmers and field technicians diagnose equipment problems, identify required parts, and access manufacturer-approved repair procedures through natural language. The solution uses AgentCore Runtime with the Strands Agents SDK, Amazon Nova 2 Lite as the foundation model, Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and AgentCore Memory for conversation persistence.

Hands-free first notice of loss: Using Strands Agents and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser Tool for intelligent claims intake

In this post, we demonstrate how a hands-free FNOL intake system combines agents built with the Strands Agents SDK for domain reasoning with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser Tool for live portal interaction. This approach preserves human expertise while removing repetitive screen work.

Build an agentic incident triage assistant with Amazon Quick and New Relic

This post shows engineering teams how to apply that principle to one of the most time-sensitive workflows in engineering: incident triage. You will build a custom incident triage assistant agent using Amazon Quick that orchestrates a response with the New Relic Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server and Asana through native integrations. From a single prompt, the Amazon Quick agent investigates the incident, assembles a root cause analysis (RCA) brief with evidence links, and creates a tracked Asana task ready for handoff.
