Accelerate Lambda durable functions development with new Kiro power

Today, AWS announces the Lambda durable functions Kiro power, bringing Lambda durable function development expertise to agentic AI development in Kiro. With this power, you can build resilient, long-running multi-step applications and AI workflows faster with AI agent-assisted development directly in your local development environment.

When you work with durable functions, the AI agent dynamically loads relevant guidance and development expertise. This includes replay model best practices, step and wait operations, concurrent execution with map and parallel patterns, error handling with retry strategies and compensating transactions, testing patterns, and deployment with AWS CloudFormation, AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK), and AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM). With this guidance, you can go from idea to a working durable function quickly, whether you are building order processing pipelines, AI agent orchestration with human-in-the-loop approvals, or payment coordination workflows.

The Lambda durable functions power is available today with one-click installation from the Kiro IDE and the Kiro powers page. Explore the power on GitHub. To get started with Lambda durable functions, see the developer guide.
