AWS has just launched AgentCore memory lifecycle policies for the India region, giving developers granular control over how AI agents store, retain, and expire conversation context and session data. The rollout follows last year's AgentCore preview, adding regional data governance controls that directly address enterprise compliance needs for persistent agent memory.
⚡ Fast Takeaways:
- Core Update: AgentCore now supports configurable memory lifecycle policies in the ap-south-1 (Mumbai) region, enabling automatic expiration of agent recall data.
- Key Metrics / Specs: Policies support TTL-based expiry, session-bound retention windows, and post-execution wipe — slashing token costs and meeting data residency mandates.
- Access & Availability: Available today via the AWS Management Console, CLI, and Bedrock AgentCore API for all India-based accounts; no additional charge for basic lifecycle rules.
