This post demonstrates how to implement Open Authorization (OAuth) Code flow as an inbound authorization mechanism for MCP servers hosted on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway. By the end of this guide, you will have a production-ready setup where each AI assistant request is authenticated with a valid user identity token issued from your organization’s identity provider.

Today, we’re excited to announce the ability to reference a secret in AWS Secrets Manager for AgentCore Identity, so you can reference your own preconfigured secret from Secrets Manager and retain full control over how it is managed. With this ability, you can extend your organization’s existing secrets governance processes to AgentCore. You can provide an existing, preconfigured AWS Secrets Manager secret to use with your credential provider resources. You retain full control over its encryption configuration, rotation, replication, tags, and resource policies, just as you would manage other secrets in Secrets Manager. You can also choose a secret from another AWS account within the same AWS Region, though cross-Region secret sharing isn’t supported. This also supports secrets brought in through AWS Secrets Manager external connectors, enabling integration with third-party secret managers.

In this post, we walk through how to use Amazon Quick Research to integrate biomedical data sources for rare cancer research. The walkthrough uses pediatric sarcoma as the research domain and draws on publicly available datasets from PubMed and other open biomedical repositories. It covers the end-to-end workflow: defining a research objective, configuring data sources, reviewing the AI-generated research plan, running the investigation, and iterating on results using the revision and versioning system.

While deploying Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in production, enterprises need fine-grained access control across servers, observability into which teams use which tools, security guarantees against data exfiltration, and centralized credential management, all at scale. Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway sits between MCP servers and the clients that consume them, centralizing credential management, observability, and secure […]

In this post, we address several key risks that surface when designing an agentic payment system, and how to address them with the capabilities of AgentCore payments.

When you build agentic AI solutions, you face unique operational challenges. Agents make unpredictable decisions, costs spiral unexpectedly, and debugging non-deterministic failures seems impossible. Agentic AI applications don’t just execute predetermined workflows. They reason, adapt, and make autonomous decisions, and DevOps practices need to be adapted. That’s where AgentOps comes in, the operational discipline for deploying, managing, and continuously improving AI agents in production.

If you’re iterating on deploying large language models (LLMs) on AWS GPU instances, you’ve probably noticed the larger the model to be loaded into GPU High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), the longer the painful wait until the GPUs are ready for inference. As models grow to hundreds of billions of parameters and GPU environments grow ever […]

In this post, we walk through a practical implementation using KDB-X MCP server integration with Amazon Quick, demonstrating how traders and analysts can ask questions using conversational language and receive actionable insights from datasets. You can apply this same integration pattern across various domains, from financial market analysis to IoT sensor monitoring to DevOps performance dashboards, where you need to simplify access to time series insights.

This post combines learnings from LangChain’s work on evaluating deep agents and Anthropic’s guide to demystifying evals for AI agents into a practical guide. In this post, you will learn how to: 1) apply five evaluation patterns for deep agents, 2) build offline evaluations using pytest and LangSmith, and 3) configure online monitoring for production. The walkthrough uses a text-to-SQL deep agent with Amazon Bedrock for the full development to production lifecycle.

In this post, we share how the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center (GenAIIC) collaborated with Works Human Intelligence (WHI) to build two AI agents using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. We discuss the challenges encountered and the solutions that reduced costs by up to 97% while improving operational efficiency.
