The migration guide in the amazon-bedrock skill helps you migrate a customer-managed Amazon Bedrock knowledge base to a Managed Knowledge Base. Your coding agent plans the move with read-only discovery, creates the new knowledge base or an infrastructure-as-code template alongside the original, and validates retrieval before you cut over.
Every generative AI team keeps rebuilding the same components: RAG pipelines, document processors, and agent scaffolding. This post shows how to access a curated catalog of 23 production-ready, open source reusable assets from the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center, with real delivery results from DoorDash, Lyft, and Ricoh.
Multi-vector embedding models give each query token its own opportunity to find a match in a document. With pool_factor=4 , my normally trained model retains 94.6% of its unpooled NanoBEIR nDCG@10, with a 4x reduction in document vectors. Token pooling-aware training raises that retention to 97.8% at the same storage budget!

Add a voice travel concierge to an airline app with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, Amazon Nova Sonic for real-time speech, and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases for policy answers. Travelers change seats, check delays, and ask policy questions by voice, while the agent reaches your backend through MCP tools and confirms every change before it writes.
Build a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) application on Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base with LangChain, and see how agentic retrieval handles the multi-part questions that single-shot retrieval answers poorly. Run the same query through both paths, read the trace events, and compare what each retrieval path costs.
For all the data that AI systems continually amass and analyze, enterprise AI agents often suffer from a curious shortcoming: a lack of knowledge. More than data, knowledge is the understanding of what the data means in the context of individual organizations.
Fine-tuning teaches a small search agent your tools and environment, giving it the reliability of a frontier model at lower latency and cost.
