Claude Haiku 5.5 is now available on Amazon Bedrock and Claude Platform on AWS. According to Anthropic, it is the fastest, most efficient model in the Claude 5.5 family, built for subagents and high-volume, cost-sensitive work, and costs around 75% less than Claude Haiku 4.5 for most tasks. This post covers its improvements and how to get started.
Enterprise RAG unlocks insights from knowledge sources like SharePoint, Google Drive, and Confluence, but those sources carry complex permissions. Learn how Amazon Quick and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases enforce document-level access controls in real time, verifying permissions directly with authoritative sources at query time.
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.
Qlik built Qlik Answers on Amazon Bedrock to give its 40,000+ customers grounded, sourced answers across structured and unstructured enterprise data. Learn how a layered, multi-agent architecture with cross-Region inference and Amazon Bedrock Guardrails delivers trusted AI at global scale.
AWS DevOps Agent can diagnose production incidents but is kept in observe-and-report mode so it does not change resources directly. This post shows how to use AWS Lambda Durable Functions, Amazon EventBridge, and Amazon Bedrock to turn its investigation summaries into pre-validated fixes an on-call engineer can approve with a single action.
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.
Cornerstone OnDemand built Orion AI, a multi-agent system on Amazon Bedrock and Strands Agents, to turn database operations from reactive firefighting into proactive automation. A three-person team cut database diagnosis from 45 minutes to 10, a 78% reduction, in six months. See the design decisions other teams can reuse.
Off-the-shelf AI assistants forget you between conversations. This post shows how to build a personal assistant that accumulates context using OpenClaw on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore runtime, with AgentCore memory turning disposable chats into durable, structured knowledge you can retrieve with metadata filters.
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.
Learn how to administer Amazon SageMaker HyperPod through Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio while preserving cluster governance. This post shows platform teams how to design infrastructure boundaries, govern access, allocate shared capacity, and operate HyperPod consistently across the organization, project, cluster, and workload control layers.
Data scientists and ML engineers can now create, configure, start, stop, and open Amazon SageMaker Spaces on SageMaker HyperPod EKS clusters directly from SageMaker Studio. Launch JupyterLab and Code Editor environments in a few clicks, without using command-line tools.
Add a voice travel concierge to an airline app with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, Amazon Nova Sonic for real-time speech, and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases for policy answers. Travelers change seats, check delays, and ask policy questions by voice, while the agent reaches your backend through MCP tools and confirms every change before it writes.
GLM 5.3 from Z.ai is now available on Amazon Bedrock: a 753B-parameter mixture-of-experts model built for coding and long-horizon agentic tasks. Learn how to invoke it with the OpenAI-compatible APIs, cut cost and latency with prompt caching, and run an authorized security test with the open-source Strix agent.
Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 and Claude Sonnet 5.5 are available on Amazon Bedrock in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. Learn how to use them with Claude Code, Anthropic's agentic coding tool, for compliance-aligned, AI-assisted development on regulated and ITAR workloads.
Amazon SageMaker optimized generative AI inference introduces the aws-ai-ml skill through the Agent Toolkit for AWS, giving coding agents like Kiro, Claude Code, and Codex deep expertise in inference optimization and benchmarking. Describe what you want, and your agent generates executable SageMaker Python SDK v3 code to benchmark, recommend, and compare deployments.
Promoting Amazon Quick resources (agents, action connectors, knowledge bases, flows, and spaces) from a development to a production AWS account has been a manual, error-prone chore. This post shows how to automate cross-account promotion with an idempotent, auditable MCP server on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore.
Build a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) application on Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base with LangChain, and see how agentic retrieval handles the multi-part questions that single-shot retrieval answers poorly. Run the same query through both paths, read the trace events, and compare what each retrieval path costs.
Amazon Quick doesn't offer a direct console path to downgrade a user from Admin or Author to Reader. This post walks through two reliable methods: a manual delete-and-recreate approach and an AWS CLI step-down sequence that downgrades roles safely while preserving asset ownership.
Multi-agent systems need deeper guarantees than fluent responses: they must select the right tools, respect constraints, and explain their decisions. Learn how to build a Strands-based multi-agent supply chain decisioning system and evaluate it with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations using built-in, custom, and explainability evaluators.
The Adjudicated Query pattern pairs the Amazon Quick chat agent with a bounded MCP server over a deterministic rules engine to deliver provably complete, defensible compliance answers. This post walks through the reference architecture and a deployable AWS CDK sample, using lease compliance as the running example.
