1. Announcing OpenAI-compatible API support for Amazon SageMaker AI endpoints

   Today, Amazon SageMaker AI introduces OpenAI-compatible API support for real-time inference endpoints. If you use the OpenAI SDK, LangChain, or Strands Agents, you can now invoke models on SageMaker AI by changing only your endpoint URL. You don’t need a custom client, a SigV4 wrapper, or code rewrites. Overview With this launch, SageMaker AI endpoints […]

2. Multimodal evaluators: MLLM-as-a-judge for image-to-text tasks in Strands Evals

   If you’re building visual shopping, image or document understanding, or chart analysis, you need a way to verify whether your model’s response is actually grounded in the source image. A text-only evaluator cannot tell you whether a caption faithfully describes an image, whether an extracted invoice total matches the document, or whether a screen summary […]

3. Build real-time voice applications with Amazon SageMaker AI and vLLM

   Voice agents, live captioning, contact center analytics, and accessibility tools all depend on real-time speech-to-text, where your application streams audio in and receives transcription back simultaneously over a single persistent connection. Traditional request-response inference falls short here because transcription cannot begin until the entire audio recording has been received, adding...

4. Scalable voice agent design with Amazon Nova Sonic: multi-agent, tools, and session segmentation

   In this post, you’ll learn how to use Amazon Nova Sonic, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, and Strands BidiAgent to build scalable, maintainable voice agents that handle these challenges efficiently, resulting in more responsive and intelligent customer interactions. We’ll explore three popular architectural patterns for voice agents, highlighting their trade-offs and best practices for minimizing...

5. Extending conversational memory in Kiro CLI using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory

   In this post, we demonstrate how you can extend the conversational memory of Kiro CLI by implementing a custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory. You can use Kiro CLI to interact with AI agents of Kiro directly from your terminal. Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory is a fully managed service that allows AI agents to retain information from past...

6. Accelerate ML feature pipelines with new capabilities in Amazon SageMaker Feature Store

   Today, we’re announcing three new capabilities available in SageMaker Python SDK v3.8.0. In this post, we walk through each capability with code examples you can use to get started. For complete end-to-end walkthroughs, see the accompanying notebooks for Lake Formation governance and Iceberg table properties in the SageMaker Python SDK repository.

7. Implementing programmatic tool calling on Amazon Bedrock

   In this post, we show three ways to implement Programmatic tool calling (PTC) on Amazon Bedrock: a self-hosted Docker sandbox on ECS for maximum control, a managed solution using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Code Interpreter, and an Anthropic SDK-compatible path through a proxy for teams that prefer that developer experience.

8. Prompting Amazon Nova 2 for content moderation

   In this post, you learn how to prompt Amazon Nova 2 Lite for content moderation using structured and free-form approaches, grounded in the MLCommons AILuminate Assessment Standard. The prompting techniques use the AILuminate taxonomy as an example, but they work equally well with your own custom moderation policy. You can swap in your own category definitions and the prompt structure stays the...

9. Aderant transforms cloud operations with Amazon Quick

   In this post, we share how Aderant used the AI-powered capabilities of Amazon Quick to unify search across six vendor systems and automate documentation workflows, achieving 90 percent faster search times and 75 percent documentation acceleration, and how others can apply these approaches to their operations.

10. Integrate Atlassian Confluence Cloud with Amazon Quick

    In this post, you will learn how to set up the Confluence Cloud integration with Quick. This includes creating a knowledge base for semantic search, setting up Actions to query and manage Confluence pages, and organizing resources in Quick Spaces. Quick integrates with your current enterprise technology stack, from internal knowledge repositories and corporate intranets to business-critical...
