Amazon Bedrock AgentCore has increased default runtime quotas, providing customers with greater capacity for scaling AI agent workloads. New limits support up to 5,000 concurrent sessions in key US regions and 200 agent interactions per second globally. This enhancement allows for more simultaneous AI agents and higher throughput capabilities without immediate configuration changes, benefiting developers building AI-powered applications.

Enhancements (2)
  • Increased default concurrent session limits

    Default runtime quotas for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore have been increased, now supporting up to 5,000 active concurrent sessions in US East (N. Virginia) and US West (Oregon) regions, and 2,500 in all other supported regions. This change allows customers to scale their agent-based workloads with greater capacity out-of-the-box.

  • Higher agent interaction and session creation rates

    All AWS Regions where AgentCore is available now support 200 agent interactions per second and 25 new sessions created per second. This enables handling of high-throughput workloads and running more AI agents simultaneously.

Notes (1)
  • Benefits for AI agent development and deployment

    These increased quotas mean customers can run more AI agents simultaneously and handle higher throughput workloads without immediate need for manual quota adjustments. Resources are available for further details on the AgentCore product page and developer guide.
