A monthly recap of the latest Amazon Bedrock, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, and Strands updates from September 2026: broader model choice, faster serverless agents with built-in evaluation, and automated knowledge base syncing with native enterprise connectors.

The RPA-era ROI model misses most of the value agentic automation creates. This post gives AI center of excellence leaders a framework to size the full value of agents across time savings, exception handling, decision quality, and maintenance economics, and to prioritize which workflows to automate first.

The biggest barrier to AI adoption isn’t awareness. It’s the gap between talking about AI and building with it. Here’s the playbook we used to turn non-technical, customer-facing professionals into confident AI builders in six weeks, and how your organization can replicate it.

AWS invests in tools that help customers align with international standards for responsible AI governance. In this post, we explore the AI system impact assessment: what it is, how it improves enterprise-wide risk management, and how ISO/IEC 42005:2025 codifies best practices for conducting and documenting these assessments.

Long-running AI agents accumulate outdated memories that degrade quality and create compliance risk. Learn how to design memory lifecycle policies for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore: scoring, consolidating, and pruning agent memories on a nightly AWS Step Functions workflow, with a deployable AWS CDK stack.

HyperPod InstantStart is an open source control plane that composes Amazon EKS orchestration with the managed capabilities of Amazon SageMaker HyperPod. It drives the same guarded operations through both a web interface and an AI agent, turning cluster bootstrap, capacity, training, inference, and storage into dependable, agent-driven infrastructure.

The Agentic Data Operations Platform (ADOP) is a reference architecture on Amazon Bedrock that uses specialized AI agents to automate the full Bronze-to-Silver-to-Gold data pipeline lifecycle, compressing new-source onboarding from weeks to hours while keeping data governance and compliance controls inline.

In this post, I share how AI serves as an accessibility tool for neurodivergent professionals. The system is built on Amazon Quick on your desktop, an AI-powered desktop and web assistant that compensates for executive function gaps every day.

The Amazon Bedrock Model Profiler is an open source tool that aggregates model metadata from multiple AWS APIs and external sources into a single, searchable interface. In this post, you’ll learn what the Model Profiler provides, the real-world scenarios it supports, and how to deploy it in your own environment in under five minutes.

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.
