🛠️ Amazon Bedrock now supports the reasoning.summary parameter for OpenAI models via the Responses API, enabling requesters to receive a human-readable summary of a model’s reasoning alongside its answer. This helps developers understand the model’s approach to complex tasks like coding, analysis, and multi-step problem solving. The summary appears in the summary array of the reasoning output item and is available for all OpenAI models on Bedrock across AWS Regions that support OpenAI GPT models.

🔐 Ten major AI firms including Amazon, Google, Microsoft and OpenAI have committed to strengthen UK data protection measures after guidance from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). The ICO’s report on agentic AI urges clearer transparency, lawful bases for processing, stronger rights mechanisms and robust safeguards. The regulator has launched a six-week call for evidence and warned it will intervene where organizations expose people to avoidable harm.

🎯 Amazon Bedrock now supports TwelveLabs Pegasus 1.5, a video-to-text model that produces structured, time-coded metadata from video. Pegasus 1.5 reads entire videos and labels events with timestamps, enabling queries across large archives without prior indexing. You can define business-relevant concepts like segments, speaker changes, sports plays, or brand appearances and receive those moments in a single pass. The model is available through US and Global cross-Region inference profiles in Amazon Bedrock.

Established AWS controls support workload security, access governance, and auditability.

🔍 AWS Cost Explorer, AWS Budgets, and Cost Management Dashboards now let customers analyze Amazon Bedrock spend by product attributes such as model, model provider, inference type, and feature. Users can group and filter costs in Cost Explorer and Dashboards and apply the same filters to Budgets. These attributes integrate with cost allocation tags and IAM principal tags to link model spend to applications and users. The feature is available today in most Regions at no extra charge.

🚀 Claude Haiku 5.5 is now available on AWS, offering the fastest and most efficient model in the Haiku 5.5 family designed for subagents and high‑volume, cost‑sensitive workloads. Anthropic reports Haiku 5.5 costs about 75% less than Haiku 4.5 for many tasks while improving performance across coding, tool use, agents, and classification. Customers can access Haiku 5.5 via Amazon Bedrock for AWS‑resident deployments or via the Claude Platform on AWS for the native Anthropic experience integrated with AWS billing and authentication.

🔒 AWS GovCloud (US) now offers Claude Haiku 5.5, Anthropic’s fastest and most efficient Haiku model, optimized for subagents and high-volume, cost-sensitive workloads. According to Anthropic, it reduces costs by about 75% compared to Haiku 4.5 for many tasks. Haiku 5.5 introduces effort controls for tuning cost versus intelligence and is suited for real-time experiences and large-scale classification, summarization, and extraction jobs. Amazon Bedrock provides access while keeping data within AWS regional infrastructure and offers AWS-managed features like Guardrails and Knowledge Bases.

🔒 This post describes a deployable pattern for propagating user identity through AI data agents built on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore so that AWS Lake Formation evaluates per-user grants. It explains the HTTP header-based token transport (access_token in Authorization and id_token in a custom header) and the three AgentCore features that keep the token out of the model context. The flow ends with a Lambda exchange that assumes a TIP role, runs Athena under the user’s identity, and preserves CloudTrail auditability without changing existing Lake Formation policies.

🛠️ Amazon Bedrock now supports GLM 5.3 from Z.ai, enabling agentic coding and long-horizon software engineering workloads with AWS security and compliance. GLM 5.3 is a mixture-of-experts model with 753B parameters and a 1-million-token context window, offering selectable reasoning effort levels and up to 128K output tokens. Bedrock provides prompt caching for system prompts and messages to lower latency and input costs. The model is available to eligible enterprise customers via the Bedrock console and APIs in US and Global cross-Region inference profiles.

🎙️ Amazon announces general availability of Nova 2.5 Sonic, a speech-to-speech model optimized for real-time voice agents. The model improves reasoning, instruction following, and tool-calling accuracy while reducing latency for more natural interactions. It supports expressive voices in seven languages, a 256K context window, and integration with Strands Bidi Agents for production voice agents.

🔒 Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway now accepts TLS certificates signed by private certificate authorities for MCP, OpenAPI, and HTTP proxy targets, enabling secure native connections to private endpoints in your VPC without an intermediate Application Load Balancer. You can register PEM-encoded CA certificates stored in Amazon S3 or AWS Secrets Manager, which the gateway uses as a trust anchor for outbound TLS. This support is available in all Regions where AgentCore Gateway and Amazon VPC Lattice are offered. See the AgentCore Developer Guide for details.

🚀 Amazon Web Services now supports OpenAI GPT-6 Astra in an UltraFast mode on Amazon Bedrock, offering a premium speed tier for latency-sensitive workloads. UltraFast promises up to 6x faster inference and throughput up to 300 tokens per second, enabling real-time coding assistants, interactive agents, and responsive customer experiences. AWS provides the underlying inference engine with controls for security, governance, and auditability.

🛈 Amazon Web Services now offers in-region support for Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 and Claude Sonnet 5 on Amazon Bedrock in the UK (London) Region. Customers in regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare, and the public sector can perform inference while keeping data processing confined to the eu-west-2 Region. Calls to the bedrock-runtime endpoint ensure requests and processing remain within the Region. See the Bedrock User Guide for current regional model availability and the Bedrock console to get started.

🟢 Amazon Quick now enables applications to consume live data directly from Quick datasets, keeping KPIs, charts, tables, and insights continuously up to date. These apps support interactive business workflows—handling requests, approvals, and triggering next steps—while respecting each user’s existing Amazon Quick row- and column-level permissions. Builders create apps by naming a dataset and describing requirements in plain language to the chat agent, simplifying integration of current pipeline numbers into portals and workflows. The feature is available in all supported regions of Amazon Quick apps.

🤖 Developed jointly by AWS and OpenAI, Bedrock Managed Agents (BMA) is an AWS-native implementation of OpenAI's Agents API that runs entirely inside AWS. BMA maintains state through durable sessions, manages tool selection and execution, and allows reusable skills and MCP-connected tools. Each agent uses its own IAM role, supports human approvals for consequential actions, and logs supported API activity to AWS CloudTrail. The preview is available in select US regions with no additional BMA charge beyond consumed AWS resources.
