Safely Releasing Frontier Models to Customers

Safely Releasing Frontier Models to Customers

It’s our goal for AWS to be the most secure place to run any workload, and in support of that we’ve been deeply investing in security across our services since AWS’s inception more than two decades ago. Our AI services like Amazon Bedrock are built on this foundation and with the same focus. 

Cost attribution and controls for AI developer and productivity tools on Amazon Bedrock

Cost attribution and controls for AI developer and productivity tools on Amazon Bedrock

Amazon Bedrock provides built-in, zero-instrumentation cost attribution that traces every inference call back to the IAM principal that made it. This post shows how to attribute per-user Bedrock costs for AI developer and productivity tools using IAM Identity Center, session tags, and CUR 2.0, and how to enforce per-user usage limits.

Build a model improvement flywheel with Amazon SageMaker HyperPod Data Capture

Build a model improvement flywheel with Amazon SageMaker HyperPod Data Capture

Amazon SageMaker HyperPod Data Capture records live inference inputs and outputs to Amazon S3. This post walks through one end-to-end example: capturing a support router’s production traffic, surfacing a new-product blind spot with Amazon Athena, fine-tuning on the captured data with the HyperPod training operator, and measuring the before-and-after lift.

How Natera designed an agentic AI system for lab ops with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

How Natera designed an agentic AI system for lab ops with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

Natera built SWARM, an agentic AI system on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore that captures institutional lab-operations knowledge and deploys it at scale. This post walks through the full architecture, from knowledge base construction to deployment and evaluation, delivering about 130x faster first response and 96.2% automated coverage across support tickets.

Four Amazon Bedrock inference choices that affect cost

Four Amazon Bedrock inference choices that affect cost

Your Amazon Bedrock inference bill can keep climbing even after you tune prompts and application logic. Four request-level choices (cache duration, service tier, reasoning effort, and maxTokens) change how many tokens the service processes and the rate applied. We show how we tested each and how to verify the effect.

Tokenomics at scale: Track and cap Amazon Bedrock spend per IAM principal with CUR 2.0 and AWS Budgets

Tokenomics at scale: Track and cap Amazon Bedrock spend per IAM principal with CUR 2.0 and AWS Budgets

Get per-identity Amazon Bedrock cost visibility and enforceable spend limits using only AWS-native features, with no application code for the common case. Attribute spend with IAM principal tags, report with CUR 2.0 or Cost Explorer, and enforce with AWS Budgets actions that apply a Deny policy when a threshold is crossed.

Optimizing cost per task and proving agent ROI on Amazon Bedrock

Optimizing cost per task and proving agent ROI on Amazon Bedrock

Comparing per-token prices hides the real cost of running a model on Amazon Bedrock. This post shows how to calculate the true cost per task across four hidden cost drivers, reduce it with caching, routing, and output constraints, and prove agent ROI with human baselines, holdout experiments, and a five-dimension scorecard.

Building a self-service LLM gateway with Amazon Bedrock and LiteLLM

Building a self-service LLM gateway with Amazon Bedrock and LiteLLM

Build a self-service LLM gateway with LiteLLM on AWS Fargate that puts Amazon Bedrock foundation models behind an OpenAI-compatible API. Developers get instant access through a single API key, while platform teams gain per-user cost controls, quota isolation, and observability.

Run agents securely and efficiently with the next generation AgentCore runtime

Run agents securely and efficiently with the next generation AgentCore runtime

AI agents now run multi-step workloads for hours and act on behalf of users, raising the bar for secure, scalable agent compute. Learn how the next generation of Amazon Bedrock AgentCore runtime delivers hardware-isolated sessions with faster starts, more compute, usage-based billing, and isolation that now extends to your data.
