Amazon Bedrock AgentCore raises default concurrent session limits 5x

Full analysis

AWS has increased the default runtime quota limits for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, its platform for building and running AI agents. The new limits allow up to 5,000 active concurrent sessions in US East (N. Virginia) and US West (Oregon), and 2,500 in all other supported regions, with all regions now supporting 200 agent interactions per second and 25 new sessions created per second out of the box. The change means developers can scale agent workloads more aggressively without needing to request custom quota increases, lowering the operational friction for high-throughput production deployments.
