The partnership includes several components: AWS becomes the exclusive third-party cloud distribution provider for OpenAI Frontier, the enterprise platform for building and managing AI agents.
What changed
OpenAI and Amazon will co-create a Stateful Runtime Environment available on Amazon Bedrock, enabling developers to build AI applications with persistent context, memory, and compute access.
