AI overview

AWS updated Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime with session startup times under 2 seconds, capacity up to 8 vCPUs and 32 GB, and support for container images up to 10 GB. AWS says startup time is independent of image size and concurrency, and the new runtime is available in its North America, South America, Europe, and Asia Pacific Regions. The runtime can reclaim memory within minutes after an agent releases it and scale idle agents to zero. For always-on agents, AWS offers committed baseline pricing that sets a minimum memory charge per session while allowing on-demand bursts up to four times the baseline.
