Amazon Web Services has outlined methods allowing Amazon Bedrock AgentCore agents located in one account to query remote knowledge bases. Under this framework, agents generate responses using an Amazon Bedrock knowledge base backed by Amazon Redshift Serverless residing in a separate account. The workflow enables retrieval operations across account boundaries without copying source data.

The technical design covers the system architecture, security boundary, and operational mechanisms needed for multi-account access. Developers can implement these workflows using two distinct orchestration models, including a code-based Strands agent. Alternatively, organizations can deploy a declarative AgentCore harness to manage the cross-account interactions.

What this means for you

This multi-account pattern allows organizations to maintain centralized data repositories without duplicating storage across environments. Enterprises can choose between code-based and declarative orchestration models to fit their existing infrastructure pipelines.
