This new IngestData API expands memory management flexibility by allowing immediate processing and extraction of long-term memory records from submitted content, including conversational and JSON payloads, without persisting transient short-term data. This supports use cases separating short- and long-term memory concerns for conversational agents and behavioral event tracking.

The mechanism integrates with existing retrieval operations and supports metadata to guide extraction. It allows real-time monitoring via Kinesis streaming and job reprocessing for failed extractions, offering a comprehensive workflow for managing agent memory across AWS regions supporting AgentCore Memory services.
