The platform for building and optimizing AI agents, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, enhanced its default limits as of July 2026 to allow up to 5,000 active concurrent sessions in US East (N. Virginia) and US West (Oregon), and 2,500 sessions elsewhere. All available AWS Regions now support 200 agent interactions per second and allow creation of 25 new sessions per second, facilitating simultaneous operation of more AI agents and high-throughput workload handling.
This update improves scalability and throughput out of the box for customers deploying agents on AgentCore, though the actual performance may depend on specific implementation details and workload characteristics. Developer resources include documentation on quotas and runtime usage for integrating and optimizing agents.
