Traditionally, concurrency settings in Amazon Connect Customer applied uniformly across entire channels, lacking differentiation for varied work complexities. The new capability allows managers to classify Tasks and Emails into distinct workload types, each with customizable concurrency and interruption parameters. For example, agents can now handle multiple simple Tasks simultaneously while being restricted to fewer complex ones.
This granular control supports optimized agent productivity and workload balance by aligning agent capacity with task demands. The feature is available across AWS commercial and GovCloud (US-West) regions for all users of Amazon Connect Customer.
