AWS frontier AI agents were recently unveiled. According to AWS (Amazon Web Services), these are the three (3) Artificially Intelligent agents that will change the way you build, secure, and operate software.
Basically, these frontier AI agents works as an extension of your software development team. They are autonomous, scalable, and can work without constant intervention.
What are the three AWS Frontier AI Agents?
They are as follows
- Kiro autonomous Agent
- AWS Security Agent
- AWS DevOps Agent
Kiro autonomous Agent
Kiro autonomous agent is your virtual developer that maintains context and learn over time. It works independently so that software developers can focus on their bigger priorities.
AWS Security Agent
AWS Security agent is your virtual security engineer that helps build secure applications. It works as a security consultant for app design, code reviews, and penetration testing.
AWS DevOps Agent
AWS DevOps agent is your virtual operations team member. It helps resolve and proactively prevents incidents, while continuously improving your applications’ reliability and performance.
Why these Agent?
AWS looked to their own development teams building services at Amazon scale and uncovered three critical insights to dramatically increase value.
- 1. by learning what the agents were and weren’t good at, the team could switch from babysitting every small task to directing agents toward broad, goal-driven outcomes.
- 2. the velocity of their teams was tied to how many agentic tasks they could run simultaneously.
- 3. the longer the agents could operate on their own, the better.
These insights led AWS to frontier agents. These agents represent a step-function change in what you can do with agents today, moving from assisting with individual tasks to completing complex projects autonomously like a member of your team.
All of these agents are currently in preview mode. For more details, you can check the following pages.
