Amazon Bedrock AgentCore increases default runtime quota limits

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore has increased the default runtime quota limits, giving customers greater capacity to scale their agent-based workloads. AgentCore is the platform for developers to build, connect, and optimize AI agents.

The new default limits support up to 5,000 active concurrent sessions in US East (N. Virginia) and US West (Oregon), and 2,500 in all other supported Regions. All AWS Regions where AgentCore is available now support 200 agent interactions per second and 25 new sessions created per second. This means customers can run more AI agents simultaneously while handling high-throughput workloads out of the box.

To learn more, visit the AgentCore product page or see the AgentCore Developer Guide. For all quota limits, see the AgentCore Quotas documentation.
