AWS’s Public Sector Blog explains how Amazon Bedrock AgentCore empowers organizations especially higher education to move beyond AI pilot projects. It provides modular, purpose-built infrastructure to deploy and operate AI agents securely and at scale, despite legacy fragmentation, integration complexity, and regulatory constraints.
Its components include AgentCore Runtime (isolated, serverless sessions), Memory (context retention over short/long term), Gateway (tool access), Identity (authentication), and Observability (monitoring).
AgentCore is framework-agnostic and model-agnostic, working with Bedrock models, Claude, Gemini, and OpenAI’s GPT, enabling institutions to streamline AI deployment without vendor lock-in.
