Zhidx reported on Nov. 12 that, on the previous day, Amazon Web Services announced that, building on its four core strengths of global leadership, trustworthiness, industry expertise, and localization, it would further upgrade its technological, security, and localized support capabilities in China.
This upgrade will further enhance full-stack Agentic AI capabilities, strengthen AI security protections, and reinforce localized support through multi-level technical collaboration with customers, development methodology enablement, and talent development, helping enterprises move AI agents from proof of concept to scaled deployment and turn AI innovation into tangible business value.
Ni Dianling, General Manager for Growing Enterprises and Emerging Businesses at Amazon Web Services, said: “We believe successful AI transformation needs to be centered on business strategy, building a ‘golden triangle’ around use cases, data, and talent, identifying business scenarios that truly create value, fully unlocking the value of enterprise data, and cultivating talent suited to the AI era. In response to these transformation needs, Amazon Web Services will continue to uphold its philosophy of ‘being deeply rooted locally and connected to the world,’ helping global enterprises innovate in China, expand globally, seize development opportunities in the AI era, and achieve sustainable growth.”
In terms of technological capabilities, in the Agentic AI field, the Amazon Web Services China regions, including the AWS Marketplace operated by CloudWest, have full-stack capabilities spanning five areas: AI infrastructure, third-party models, data and knowledge, Agentic platforms, and agent application development, with security and governance capabilities running throughout the entire technology architecture.
Amazon Web Services continues to drive the local deployment of globally leading technologies and services in the AWS China regions operated by Sinnet and CloudWest. This year, the AWS China regions have launched 277 new services and features, bringing the cumulative total of services and features launched to more than 2,800.
Among them, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore is now officially available in the AWS China (Beijing) Region operated by Sinnet and the AWS China (Ningxia) Region operated by CloudWest, helping enterprises rapidly build, securely connect, and continuously optimize agents, and advance AI from technical validation to production deployment.
In addition, Amazon Web Services continues to enhance its AI-Ready Data Foundation through an architecture that combines the data, semantic, and contextual layers, helping enterprises fully leverage proprietary data and business knowledge. This enables agents not only to access data effectively but also to understand the business meaning behind the data, better supporting real-world business applications.
In terms of security capabilities, Amazon Web Services continues to deepen its AI security technologies and practices. Working from both the “Security for AI” and “AI for Security” perspectives, it helps enterprises build robust security defenses and continually safeguard the secure deployment of enterprise-grade agents.
As agents begin accessing enterprise data, invoking tools, and executing tasks, enterprises need not only to manage model inputs and outputs but also to effectively govern agent identities, access permissions, and runtime processes.
In the “Security for AI” area, enterprises can leverage Amazon Bedrock AgentCore capabilities such as identity and access control, tool connectivity, and observability to strengthen the management of agent identities and permissions, tool connections, and runtime processes, while combining Guardrails solutions from local partners to conduct content filtering and compliance checks on model inputs and outputs.
In the “AI for Security” area, Amazon Web Services continues to harness AI innovation to improve the efficiency of security detection, vulnerability management, and security operations, helping enterprises build a safer and more controllable business environment while accelerating AI adoption.
In terms of localized support, Amazon Web Services continues to improve its customer collaboration and service systems, aiming to help enterprises accelerate the implementation of AI applications through multi-level technical support and talent enablement.
In terms of customer support, Amazon Web Services provides multi-tiered support covering deep technical collaboration and development methodology enablement. Through rapid prototyping and validation, such as Customer Development Engineering (CDE) programs, it helps customers quickly turn business ideas into verifiable prototypes. Drawing on local experts and scientists in China and combining their expertise with real-world business needs, it provides technical support and enablement in areas such as model adaptation, inference optimization, and AI application development. It also uses the Agent Development Lifecycle (Agent-DLC) methodology to help enterprises build evaluation-driven, continuously iterative development capabilities.
In terms of talent enablement, Amazon Web Services supports enterprises in building a talent pipeline suited to the AI era and strengthening their capacity for continuous innovation through three initiatives: co-creating talent with universities, developing enterprise talent, and enabling enterprise recruitment.
