Amazon Bedrock AgentCore has increased default runtime quota limits, allowing users to run more AI agents simultaneously

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore has increased the default runtime quota limits, giving customers greater capacity to scale their agent-based workloads. The new default limits support up to 5,000 active concurrent sessions in US East (N. Virginia) and US West (Oregon), and 2,500 in all other supported Regions. All AWS Regions where AgentCore is available now support 200 agent interactions per second and 25 new sessions created per second.
