Configure rate limits for AI traffic on AgentCore gateway
TL;DR
Learn how to configure rate limits on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore gateway to enforce per-user and per-target traffic controls. Define request, token, and connection limits scoped by JWT claims or IAM identity to protect downstream models, tools, and agents from traffic spikes.
Nauti's Take
Real progress on the unsexy side of agents: per user and per tool limits stop a runaway loop from eating half the budget overnight. The limitation is lock in, because this control only exists inside Bedrock.
Teams running production agents on AWS should switch it on today, everyone else still needs to build their own guardrails.
