A readiness assessment for AI teams moving agents from a prototype or another provider to Amazon Bedrock and AgentCore. Score yourself out of 30, with the evidence, AWS service, and command for each check.
By Evgeny Anikiev, AWS-certified DevOps engineer with 10+ years running build automation, CI/CD, and Kubernetes in production. AWS service details verified October 22, 2026.
TL;DR: Score 15 checks from 0 to 2. They cover cost per task, evaluations, model access, quotas, AgentCore Runtime, tools, identity, data, observability, and rollback.
