A Practical Guide with Strands Agents and AWS AgentCoreMost teams learn the hard way that a chatbot in the lab is not an agent in production.
This book explains how to bridge that gap with real engineering discipline — building systems that act, plan, and recover safely inside your cloud.
You’ll learn how
Design and deploy agents with Strands orchestration and AWS AgentCore runtime isolation.
Define deterministic tool contracts, memory, and planning loops.
Enforce IAM boundaries, cost controls, and audit trails.
Integrate human-in-the-loop approvals for security and compliance.
Build observability, reliability, and governance into every agent.
Each chapter moves from theory to implementation, showing how to turn language models from text generators into production-grade systems.
Written for AI engineers, platform teams, and technical founders, Building Production AI Agents is a field manual for shipping dependable, auditable autonomy — one agent, one plan, one task at a time.
