Amazon Bedrock AgentCore raises default concurrent session limits 5x
ai-in-adtech big-tech engineering
Amazon quietly made a meaningful infrastructure commitment: Bedrock AgentCore's default concurrent session limits just jumped 5x, to 5,000 active sessions in US East and West and 2,500 everywhere else, with 200 agent interactions per second now available out of the box. That's not a product announcement — it's AWS signaling it expects serious production traffic on this platform, not just pilots. Developers who were hitting quota ceilings and filing support tickets to scale now have a much lower-friction path to deployment. Watch whether enterprise adoption actually follows the headroom.
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.
