AWS – Introducing agentic capabilities for Amazon Q Developer Chat in the AWS Management Console and chat applications

Today, we’re announcing new and improved agentic Amazon Q Developer experience in the AWS Management Console, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. Amazon Q Developer can now answer more complex queries than ever before in the AWS Management Console chat, offering deeper resource introspection and a dynamic, more interactive troubleshooting experience for users.

Till today, Amazon Q Developer helped simplify manual work needed from cloud engineering teams to monitor and troubleshoot resources by answering basic AWS questions and providing specialized guidance. Now, it combines deep AWS expertise with new multi-step reasoning capabilities that enable it to consult multiple information sources and resolve complex queries within the AWS Management Console and chat applications.Customers can ask questions about AWS services and their resources, leaving Amazon Q to automatically identify the appropriate capabilities tools for the task, selecting from AWS APIs across 200+ services. Amazon Q breaks all queries into executable steps, asks for clarification when needed, and combines information from multiple services to solve the task. For example, you can ask, “Why am I getting 500 errors from my payment processing Lambda function?” and Q automatically gathers relevant CloudWatch logs, examines function’s configuration and permissions, checks connected services like API Gateway and DynamoDB and analyzes recent changes – all while showing progress and reasoning to enable builders to work more efficiently.

These new capabilities are accessible in all AWS regions where Amazon Q Developer is available. Learn more in this deep-dive blog.
