Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory now supports direct ingestion to long-term memory
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory now allows developers to submit content directly to long-term memory without persisting it as a short-term memory event, enabling independent use of long-term memory.
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory allows developers to send content directly to long-term memory. The IngestData API receives content, distributes it to the configured long-term memory strategy, and makes the resulting memory records available through the same retrieval operations as other long-term memory records. It enables independent use of long-term memory without creating short-term memory events. IngestData supports conversation and JSON payloads, optionally accepting metadata that feeds into the same extraction pipeline as CreateEvent. After processing, extraction results can be verified with ListMemoryRecords or RetrieveMemoryRecords, streamed for real-time notifications via Kinesis, and extraction failures can be redriven using ListMemoryExtractionJobs. IngestData is available in all AWS regions where Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory is supported.
Why it matters
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory is a service that allows AI agents to remember information and maintain more natural conversations. This update provides developers with greater flexibility in managing long-term memory.
