Amazon Bedrock introduces OpenAI models, Codex, and Managed Agents in limited preview

Amazon Web Services (AWS) and OpenAI are enhancing their collaboration to provide cutting-edge artificial intelligence to the infrastructure relied upon by millions of organizations. Businesses are seeking the most advanced AI models and tools, coupled with the security, operational reliability, and data governance necessary for production environments. In response, three new offerings are now available on Amazon Bedrock, albeit in limited preview: the latest OpenAI models, Codex, and Managed Agents powered by OpenAI.

Firstly, AWS customers can now access the latest OpenAI models through Amazon Bedrock. This marks the first time that AWS users can utilize OpenAI’s advanced models via the same Bedrock services they currently employ for model access, fine-tuning, and orchestration. The OpenAI models on Bedrock come equipped with enterprise-level controls that clients rely on, such as Identity and Access Management (IAM), AWS PrivateLink, security measures, encryption, and CloudTrail logging.

Secondly, Codex is now integrated into Amazon Bedrock, introducing OpenAI’s coding agent to the AWS environments where enterprise teams already operate. Customers can authenticate using AWS credentials and perform inference through Bedrock. Codex will be accessible via the Codex Command Line Interface (CLI), a desktop application, and a Visual Studio Code extension. Utilization of both OpenAI models and Codex can contribute to existing AWS cloud commitments.

Lastly, Amazon Bedrock Managed Agents, powered by OpenAI, enable rapid deployment of production-ready OpenAI-driven agents on AWS. These agents are built upon the latest OpenAI models and the OpenAI agent framework, designed for quicker execution, enhanced reasoning, and dependable management of long-duration tasks. Each agent has its own identity, logs every action, and operates within your environment, with all inferences processed on Amazon Bedrock. Managed Agents are compatible with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, which offers a default computing environment.
