## AI overview

This article explains agentic AI architectures and how Amazon Bedrock and the Amazon Nova model family support them. It describes agents as systems that break complex tasks into steps, call external tools, and use results to guide subsequent actions. It also introduces Bedrock's managed infrastructure and orchestration, Nova's function-calling, context-window, and multimodal capabilities, and considerations for building agentic systems at scale.
