‘[AWS has] consistently moved ahead of market demand to build the necessary infrastructure before enterprises realize they even need it. We saw this with cloud adoption, containerization—and now with agentic AI,’ says Travis Rehl, CTO of AWS Premier partner Innovative Solutions.
AWS is doubling down on agentic AI innovation by unveiling new multi-agent collaboration technology on Amazon Bedrock as the $115 billion cloud titan turns its R&D engine toward AI agents.
The news comes after the Seattle-based company formed a new business group this month under led by AWS’ AI guru, Swami Sivasubramanian, which is focused on building various AI agents to help users automate daily tasks without needing prompts for the AI to take action.
“AWS is characteristically forward-thinking in forming this dedicated Agentic AI organization,” said Travis Rehl, CTO at AWS Premier partner Innovative Solutions. “They’ve consistently moved ahead of market demand to build the necessary infrastructure before enterprises even realize they need it. We saw this with cloud adoption, containerization—and now with agentic AI.”
On Monday, AWS launched multi-agent collaboration capabilities on Amazon Bedrock that enable developers to build, deploy and manage networks of AI agents that work together seamlessly to efficiently execute complex workflows.
Multi-agent collaboration lets customers create networks of specialized agents that communicate and coordinate under the guidance of a supervisor agent. Each agent contributes its expertise to the larger workflow by focusing on a specific task.
Rehl said Henrietta, N.Y.-based Innovative Solutions has already implemented hundreds of AI agents for its customers.
“The organizations that engage now with AWS’ agentic capabilities will establish significant competitive advantages by the time this becomes mainstream in the next six to 12 months,” said Rehl. “While most enterprises aren’t fully prepared right now, the adoption curve is accelerating rapidly. We’re seeing six-month preparation timelines compress into 90-day sprints as customers develop their AI governance and implementation strategies.”
IT research firm Gartner predicts that by 2028, at least 15 percent of day-to-day work decisions will be made autonomously through agentic AI, up from virtually zero percent in 2024.
AWS is betting big that agentic AI will be the next big wave in the artificial intelligence era.
“Agentic AI systems are the next frontier in computing, and the future of this technology will be built on the foundation we’ve created at AWS on top of our core building blocks of compute, storage, databases and AI,” said Sivasubramanian, AWS’ new vice president of Agentic AI, in a LinkedIn post.
Agentic AI combines various techniques with features like memory, planning, sensing the environment, using tools and following safety guidelines to automatically carry out tasks to reach objectives on their own.
In addition to Amazon Bedrock Agents, AWS has unveiled new agentic capabilities for developers in Amazon Q, where three new agents will allow developers to reduce workloads.
“Amazon Q Developer Agents is consistently one of the top-performing AI agents for building groundbreaking new capabilities. The scenario analysis capability in QuickSight takes an agentic approach that makes data analysis 10X faster than spreadsheets,” said Sivasubramanian.
“Amazon has also saved 4,500 developer years using Amazon Q Developer’s code transformation capability to upgrade Java applications,” he said. “And we are just scratching the surface.”
AWS also recently launched a new Amazon Q Developer CLI agent within the command line interface that “will change the way our customers work,” Sivasubramanian said on LinkedIn.
“This new capability—powered by Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Anthropic’s most intelligent model to date—allows developers to have more collaborative, interactive conversations with the Q Developer that works with them, asks them feedback and makes iterative changes as they go along,” Sivasubramanian said.
From Google Cloud and Microsoft to ServiceNow and Salesforce, tech giants have poured millions into R&D to create AI agents.
In an email to AWS employees this month, CEO Matt Garman said Agentic AI “has the potential to be the next multibillion business for AWS.”
Garman formed a new agentic AI business group that will be led by Sivasubramanian, who was previously vice president for AI and data at AWS from 2022 to March 2025. He has a vast history working in leadership roles at both AWS and Amazon since 2006.
“We have the opportunity to help our customers innovate even faster and unlock more possibilities, and I firmly believe that AI agents are core to this next wave of innovation,” said Garman.
