This course was developed by members of AWS Technical Field Communities (TFC), an AWS community of technical experts. The content is intended to complement our standard training curriculum and augment your AWS learning journey. We are aware some courses have accessibility limitations and are working to address.

Learners will discover how to move coding agents off local laptops and onto Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, a cloud runtime that provides each agent session with an isolated Linux microVM, persistent workspace, and real shell. The course covers the five requirements any coding agent needs -- a shell, filesystem, checked-out project, dependencies, and permissions -- and shows how AgentCore delivers identity management, a unified MCP gateway for tools like GitHub and Slack, and built-in observability via CloudWatch. Participants also learn to benchmark multiple agents side by side on latency and cost.
