AWS Backs Agentic Resource Discovery as Federation Layer for Agent Registry

AWS has announced support for Agentic Resource Discovery, a federation layer designed to allow AI agents to dynamically locate and invoke other agents or tools registered across distributed systems. This effectively creates a directory and routing mechanism for multi-agent architectures, enabling agents to discover capabilities at runtime rather than relying on hardcoded tool lists. For developers building multi-agent systems on AWS, this infrastructure means agent orchestration can become more dynamic and composable — agents can find specialist sub-agents on demand, which is critical for scaling complex agentic workflows. The move positions AWS as a serious infrastructure provider for production agent deployments, competing with emerging agent-to-agent protocol efforts from other labs. Developers building on AWS agent frameworks like Bedrock should evaluate how Agentic Resource Discovery integrates into their existing tool-calling and orchestration patterns.
