Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime now supports direct code deployment

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime Updates
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime now supports two deployment methods for AI agents: container-based deployment and direct code upload. Developers can choose between direct code-zip file upload for rapid prototyping and iteration, or leverage advanced container-based options for complex use cases requiring custom configurations.
AgentCore Runtime provides a serverless, framework and model agnostic runtime for running agents and tools at scale. This deployment option streamlines the prototyping workflow while maintaining enterprise security and scaling capabilities for production deployments.
This feature is available in all nine AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime is available: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Europe (Frankfurt), and Europe (Ireland).
What to do
- Explore AgentCore Runtime deployment options in the AgentCore documentation.
- Get started with the AgentCore Starter Toolkit.
- Review consumption-based pricing with no upfront costs.
