{"data":{"items":[{"fields":{"nofollow":"0","noindex":"0","postBody":"<p>Today, AWS announces a research preview of aws-bench, an open-source benchmark that measures how accurately and efficiently AI agents complete real-world AWS tasks. Model providers and AI researchers building agents that operate on AWS infrastructure need an objective, reproducible way to measure performance and diagnose failures. aws-bench provides a public suite of test cases derived from analysis of real AWS usage, including investigation, troubleshooting, and infrastructure creation tasks.<br>\n<br>\nEach test case pairs a natural-language query with a defined cloud resource state and a ground-truth answer, so you can score any agent or model on a consistent, verifiable basis.
