AWS looks to super-charge AI agents with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore - Wednesday, July 16, 2025 - 11:00
  • AWS reveals new Amazon Bedrock AgentCore platform
  • Launch looks to take some of the heavy lifting out of deploying AI agents
  • Includes a selection of tools and services to help build and deploy agents

AWS has revealed a new agentic AI development platform as it looks to make building and deploying agents easier than ever.

The new Amazon Bedrock AgentCore platform looks to give developers everything they need to create and deploy advanced AI agents.

Speaking at its AWS Summit New York 2025 event, the company said the launch marks a "step change" in helping developers move agents from fun toys to something effective and into production.

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

"With agents come a shift to service as software," noted Swami Sivasubramanian, Vice President, AWS Agentic AI, Amazon Web Services, outlining plans to make AWS the best place to build the world's most useful AI agents.

"Despite all these open source frameworks and protocols, getting agents to production is still too hard, because of the dynamic and autonomous nature of agents and their effects in production."

Available in preview now, with a wider launch set to be available soon, AgentCore includes the following services:

AgentCore Runtime - secure serverless runtime purpose-built for deploying and scaling AI agents and tools

AgentCore Memory - build context-aware agents by eliminating complex memory infrastructure management while providing full control over what the AI agent remembers

AgentCore Identity - securely access AWS services and third-party tools on behalf of users or acting with pre-authorization

AgentCore Gateway - build, deploy and discover agents across millions of connections - automatically convert into MCP-compatible tools without managing integrations

AgentCore Code Interpreter - enable AI agents to write and execute code securely, enhancing accuracy for solving complex end to end tasks - including JavaScript and Python

AgentCore Browser Tool - fast, secure cloud-based browser runtime to enable AI agents to interact with websites at scale - including live viewing for troubleshooting and auditing

AgentCore Observability - trace, debug and monitor AI agents' performance in production environments

Users will be able to pick and choose which tools they want to use from the platform, allowing them to scale and deploy when ready.

“It’s a tectonic change in a few dimensions,” Sivasubramanian added. “It upends the way software is built. It also introduces a host of new challenges to deploying and operating it, and potentially most impactfully, it changes how software interacts with the world—and how we interact with software.”

One UI 8 is on the way, but Samsung needs to earn my trust again before I can celebrate - Wednesday, July 16, 2025 - 11:13

Samsung has announced the next generation of its folding phones, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7, and with them One UI 8, the next generation of Samsung’s mobile operating system based on Android 16.

As we recently reported, One UI 8 is likely to come with a selection of useful new features, but we're still fairly light on confirmed new features.

As it stands, it looks like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 will be the first phones to launch with One UI 8, a refreshed software experience to compliment the phones' newly slimmed-down hardware.

As keen Samsung fans will know, it’s not actually been all that long since the release of One UI 7, based on Android 15, which finally came to a wider range of Samsung devices in April of this year.

However, the release of One UI 7 was preceded by a saga of delays, issues, and confusion, as Samsung seemingly struggled to get its next update out the door. One UI 7 first appeared with the Galaxy S25 series in February 2025, but this was technically a pre-release build that remained exclusive to the latest Samsung flagships for a good few months.

My confidence in one of the world’s best Android phone makers shook as the beta period dragged on into the spring of 2025.

One UI 7 finally got a wide release in April 2025, 18 months after the release of One UI 6.

However, foregrounding One UI 8 so soon after the troubled release of One UI 7 suggests confidence. This is Samsung announcing that it’s ready to step forward again – but in order to win back my trust, this coming rollout needs to look a little different.

A chance to do it right

One UI 7 technically launched with the Galaxy S25 series back in February, but Samsung was slow to bring the update to users of its older models.

Things got even more confusing with the release of the Galaxy A26, A36, and A56, budget-focused handsets that nonetheless launched with One UI 7 before several older flagships had even been given release dates.

This never sat right with me – though One UI 7 was a huge update that naturally took a while to port to older models, it felt like Samsung users had been left in the dark. I couldn't imagine spending $1,249 / £1,200 / A$2,199 on a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, only to be left waiting more than a year for your very first major operating system update.

With One UI 8, Samsung has a chance to prove to the world – and more importantly its customers – that previous-generation models and users are still a priority.

In a perfect world, I’d want to see One UI 8 released to all compatible devices at the same time, but I understand that this is pretty unlikely. Samsung’s product portfolio is massive, with phones, folding phones, and tablets to consider, so I’m willing to accept a span of a few weeks between the first and last devices getting the update.

But at the very least, I want to see a compatible device list and roadmap with precise release dates included – after the last update cycle, any vagueness would just seem disrespectful to Samsung’s users, many of whom are fiercely loyal to the brand.

Having used One UI 7 myself, I can vouch for it as a charming and capable Android wrapper, as well as one of the most customizable mobile UIs on the market – that’s to say I like One UI, and want to see it succeed. I hope Samsung takes this chance to prove me right.
