In 2026, Amazon Bedrock’s AgentCore Gateway and Identity services introduced Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) egress capabilities in managed and self-managed modes. This enables applications to securely communicate with private resources—such as EKS-hosted MCP servers—and with identity providers deployed inside customer VPCs for token validation and retrieval.
The update supports private DNS resolution across these services and is available in fourteen AWS regions worldwide. Managed VPC egress covers most common use cases, while self-managed options allow custom network configurations using VPC Lattice. This functionality assists customers in strengthening access control and integrating identity management within private cloud environments.
