Today, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore harness is generally available. Two API calls (CreateHarness to define an agent, and InvokeHarness to run it), and you have an agent running in seconds. The agent runs in its own isolated environment with a filesystem and shell, so it can read files, run commands, and write code safely. It remembers users and conversations across sessions, picks up skills you point it at (including the AWS-curated catalog), browses the web, calls your tools through gateway or MCP, and switches model providers mid-session without losing context. Every step streams back to you in real time and is automatically traced to Amazon CloudWatch. You don’t need to write orchestration code or build a container, unless you want to.

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.

Enterprise organizations increasingly rely on web-based applications for critical business processes, yet many workflows remain manually intensive, creating operational inefficiencies and compliance risks. Despite significant technology investments, knowledge workers routinely navigate between eight to twelve different web applications during standard workflows, constantly switching contexts and manually transferring information between systems. Data entry and validation tasks […]

In this post, we explore how agentic QA automation addresses these challenges and walk through a practical example using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Browser and Amazon Nova Act to automate testing for a sample retail application.

This post demonstrates how to use the powerful combination of Strands Agents, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, and NVIDIA NeMo Agent Toolkit to build, evaluate, optimize, and deploy AI agents on Amazon Web Services (AWS) from initial development through production deployment.
