Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations decouples agent evaluation from the framework you build on. As long as your agent emits OpenTelemetry telemetry, the service can score it, whether you use LangGraph, LlamaIndex, the OpenAI Agents SDK, Google ADK, the Claude Agent SDK, or Strands Agents. This post explains how the framework-agnostic contract works.

Amazon OpenSearch Service now supports MCP Apps, which return interactive visualizations alongside your AI agent’s text responses. Learn how a single, locally run MCP server lets your agent move from alert to trace to logs to root cause in one conversation, and how you can verify every step inline without leaving your IDE.

Amazon SageMaker HyperPod now offers managed Ray support on Amazon EKS. Create and monitor Ray clusters, connect JupyterLab and Code Editor notebooks to live clusters, get out-of-the-box observability, and run resilient distributed training and accelerated inference from SageMaker Studio, all with open-source KubeRay and standard Ray APIs.

AWS Agent Registry gives your organization a centralized, searchable catalog for agents, tools, and skills. It works with the open Agentic Resource Discovery (ARD) standard to enable cross-environment discovery and governance at scale.

Amazon Bedrock now offers OpenAI GPT-5.6 models (Sol, Terra, and Luna) in more than 25 AWS Regions with cross-Region inference. Learn how US geographic and global inference profiles route requests for higher throughput, how to call the models with the OpenAI and Converse APIs, and how to configure IAM, quotas, and monitoring.

Web Search on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore now supports runtime domain and published-date filtering. New per-request filters give developers per-call control over which web sources their agents consult and how fresh those sources must be, all enforced server-side. This release also expands Web Search to the Europe (Ireland) and Asia Pacific (Tokyo) Regions.

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore payments is now generally available, enabling AI agents to autonomously transact at scale with built-in spending guardrails, protocol-agnostic payment orchestration, and production-ready observability.

NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, an open model built for high-volume agentic workloads, is now available in Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. This post shows how to deploy the 30B Mixture-of-Experts model (3B active), which delivers up to 4x higher throughput and up to 30% faster task completion for always-on agents.

Amazon Quick is now available directly inside Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. These extensions bring connected data access and agentic document editing into the Microsoft 365 apps your teams already use, so you can analyze data, draft content, and reach enterprise knowledge without switching applications.

Daybreak Red and Daybreak Blue from OpenAI, specialized cyber defense models from OpenAI, are now available on Amazon Bedrock to eligible customers. Both models run with zero-operator access enforced at the chip, keeping your code and vulnerability data secure.
