Runtime instances: persistent compute for production AI agents on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore
Mainly relevant if your organisation runs AI agents on AWS Bedrock — this gives IT teams a way to keep long-running, multi-agent workflows alive in production rather than restarting them every few minutes. Not something most individual users will interact with directly.
What changed
Source summary
AWS added runtime instances to Bedrock AgentCore, a persistent managed-compute option supporting sessions up to 14 days, GPU acceleration, multi-agent collaboration on shared hosts, and containerised deployments — aimed at production AI agents that need continuous operation or direct OS access rather than short-lived microVMs.
