AWS Strands Agents & AgentCore

Overview

AWS Strands Agents SDK: Open-source Python framework for building AI agents with model-driven orchestration (minimal code, model decides tool usage)

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore: Enterprise platform for deploying, operating, and scaling agents in production

Relationship: Strands SDK runs standalone OR with AgentCore platform services. AgentCore is optional but provides enterprise features (8hr runtime, streaming, memory, identity, observability).


Quick Start Decision Tree

What are you building?

Single-purpose agent:

  • Event-driven (S3, SQS, scheduled) → Lambda deployment
  • Interactive with streaming → AgentCore Runtime
